TaylorMade Golf Acquires Nassau Golf Co. Ltd
  • Acquisition continues TaylorMade’s vertical integration of its golf ball supply chain and to service its fast-growing global golf ball business

CARLSBAD, Calif. (Nov. 3, 2021) – TaylorMade Golf has completed the acquisition of Korean-based Nassau Golf Co. Ltd for an undisclosed amount. The deal represents TaylorMade’s third vertical integration in its golf ball business with the new entity called TM Golf Ball Korea, joining its other golf ball manufacturing facilities - TM Golf Ball South Carolina (US) and TM Golf Ball Taiwan (TaylorMade-Foremost Golf Co.).

With a growing golf ball global market share, including a 176% growth rate over the last 5 years*, this strategic acquisition further strengthens TaylorMade’s expansion in the golf ball category. It also enables the company to better service its global businesses who are all experiencing strong demand for its cast urethane TP5/TP5X and Tour Response models, as well as its ionomer cover models like Distance+.

This acquisition further supports TM’s strategic plan to create vertical integration in the company’s golf ball supply chain. TM Golf Ball Korea now joins TM Golf Ball Taiwan and TM Golf Ball South Carolina to service the global demand requirements for our rapidly growing golf ball business.
