Over the past decade, the golf retail industry has gone through tremendous change, with national chains scaling back their operations & independent off-course stores becoming few and far between.  Buddy Christensen and his Golfdom team in Tysons Corner have persevered as a beloved business for their outstanding service and remain an invaluable resource for players of all levels throughout the dmv.

We spoke with Buddy about everything Golfdom has to offer, the history of the business founded by Joe Chang as one of the Washington Golf Centers, how his team stays on top of the latest industry trends and the ways they’ve had to get creative to overcome the covid-related challenges still affecting the business today.
