About World Golf Challenge

World Golf Challenge was created in 2021 by Jonas Jaeggi within the company KHEOX consulting Sàrl based on the shores of Lake Neuchâtel in Switzerland. This golf enthusiast combines activities in finance (for professional golfers among others) and golf sponsoring for the watch industry. To bring his project to life, Jonas Jaeggi collaborated with the Swedish company YONYFY, which developed the technological aspect of the World Golf Challenge platform and is known for having created the eSport challenge for Fortnite challenge.gg

The Reflexion

“Necessity is the mother of invention”.

World Golf Challenge was born from my own needs and experience. At the start of a given week, I used to compare my weekend competition scores with those of my friends, both at home and abroad. When lockdown came and made it impossible to travel, I found it restrictive to be able to compete only with the members of my club and not to be able to track and cross-reference our results and performance.

A year on, World Golf Challenge answers this need through a digital platform that gives golf and golfers a border-free playground enabling players to compete remotely while playing physically on the course of their choice. A way of opening up golfing borders and also of being challenged by going up against other players internationally. A great means of boosting progress and motivation.
