I read an article about how many business is way down for golf and many courses are closing, so that may be driving the moves at Dick's.

I too am curious as to why they are building a new store in tandem with closing upwards of 20 locations...

Professional golf soared in interest when Tiger Woods went professional, joined the tour, and won tournaments. Now that Woods is not winning, the bandwagon of fairweather fans has lost passengers. The game has changed with younger and better athletes leading the sport. There may not be much exposure, but interest will remain among pure golf enthusiasts.
