Indoor golf experience coming to Market Square

PITTSBURGH — Don’t put away the golf clubs for the winter just yet! A new indoor golf experience is coming to Market Square.

Five Iron Golf, a self-described “urban golf experience,” is opening a 14,000 square foot space at PPG Place -- featuring “11 custom-designed hitting bays” and a “dedicated golf instruction simulator.”

Its website describes the experience as a “unique mixture of golf and entertainment,” featuring golf simulators, a full bar, locally-inspired menu and event space.

The company will have nine locations across the country by next year.

“Our strategy in expanding to Pittsburgh, Washington, D.C. and Las Vegas is the same—to create a place for the local golf community to take lessons, practice and play in our leagues, while making golf accessible and entertaining for everyone,” said Five Iron Golf’s Co-Founder and CEO Jared Solomon. “Expanding into Pittsburgh and D.C. allows us to further target urban golfers in cities rich in history and culture.”

The simulator also features “additional technology meant for capturing data, analyzing the golf swing, and getting accurate real-time feedback,” according to a release.

Officials said the Pittsburgh location is projected to open in spring 2021.
