Genre Research - Golf Monthly

Image result for golf magazine

The cover features the Golf Monthly title, with GOLF being the biggest lettering and MONTHLY being smaller and to the side as it is not as important. There is large blue text next to a golfer swinging relating to an article in the magazine. The text is very generic but professional as golf is perceived as a professional gentlemen's game.

All of the articles found in this magazine are golf related, with articles referring to courses, resorts, players, tips, equipment, etc. Every 2 pages or every other page, depending on the article length, and some are golf related, but others refer to alcohol or health care products as well. The Table of Contents features a golfer swinging a driver on a golf course tee box, presumably in a tournament. This magazine distributes 2.5 million magazines a year (2018).
