International Golf Membership (IGM)
IGM was founded in 2004 with a clear mission: to unite the prestigious heritage of golf with the dynamism of a globally connected world. We view golf not merely as a sport, but as a refined platform for meaningful exchange and enduring values.
Through our deep roots in the historic Baildon Golf Club, we provide the foundation for a truly distinctive lifestyle. From officially maintained WHS Handicap Indexes to forward-thinking solutions for international networks, we ensure that golf becomes a valuable global asset for our members.
Classic Membership
With our classic golf membership, you’ll receive a globally recognized WHS handicap index. It is the perfect solution for golfers who value flexibility and prefer not to be tied to a single home club. This membership serves as a high-quality alternative to traditional club models, offering full global recognition paired with personalized service.
Worldwide Access & Handicap Classification
Many golf clubs require guest players to have a verified handicap index. To ensure you’re ready to play, our membership includes an official starting handicap of 28.0 for men and 36.0 for women. This grants you access to golf courses worldwide and serves as the foundation for your ongoing handicap management under the World Handicap System.
Whether you travel frequently for work, play golf internationally, participate in open competitions, or want to combine golf with your career, travel, or family life, this membership adapts to your lifestyle.
