ZSTRICT to Open GOLFZON’s First North American Location

GOLFZON, the global leader in the golf simulator business, announced that it will open its first North American location in Connecticut, USA, in early October under its new brand ‘ZSTRICT.’

Founded in South Korea in 2000, GOLFZON was named ‘Best Simulator’ at the Golf Digest Editors’ Choice Awards from 2017 to 2019. More than 57 million rounds are played annually on GOLFZON simulators across 46 countries worldwide. Holding the largest market share in the industry, GOLFZON will establish ZSTRICT’s first U.S. location at Chelsea Piers Connecticut.

Tommy Lim, CEO of GOLFZON America, said, “This opening is a very significant milestone in our new venture with ZSTRICT,” adding, “We are honored and delighted to introduce GOLFZON’s award-winning products, services, and technology to the U.S. market for the first time.”

Chelsea Piers Connecticut is one of America’s premier sports and leisure facilities. Spanning approximately 11,000 square feet, the ZSTRICT location features swing plates that reproduce a variety of ground conditions, multi-surface hitting mats, a smart automatic tee-up system, and intelligent data on ball flight, club speed, posture correction, and more. With rich graphics, real-time feedback, and global connectivity, the ZSTRICT software delivers an immersive experience close to playing a real course. At each location, players can play renowned real golf courses such as Bethpage Black, Kiawah Island Ocean Course, and St. Andrews.

Customers can also take part in daily and monthly competitions. Through in-store competitions, participants can compete simultaneously in a variety of game formats and vie for cash and point prizes. Currently, GOLFZON, ZSTRICT’s parent company, hosts an average of 350 simulator tournaments per day.

CEO Tommy Lim said, “At ZSTRICT, we want every golfer to feel they have the opportunity to learn, compete, and have fun,” adding, “GOLFZON’s unrivaled simulator technology will help every player enjoy the optimal experience tailored to their skill level and interests.”

Like outdoor golf facilities, ZSTRICT will station PGA Professionals to provide visitors with swing lessons, club fitting, and other golf-related services. The Chelsea Piers Connecticut location is expected to become a year-round golf destination that offers skill improvement, competition, social connection, and enjoyment all in one. At ZSTRICT, there is always time to play.
