In a deal announced today, the Las Vegas-based investor and golf course operator, Bill Walters, through Las Vegas Golf Ventures, LLC has purchased 50 percent ownership of LasVegasGolf.com, a subsidiary site within the popular WorldGolf.com network. WorldGolf.com, with its extensive golf and travel network, has paired with the Las Vegas-based investor and golf course operator and its expansive local knowledge, to provide the premier golf site for Las Vegas.

Bill Walters is recognized as Nevada’s leading golf entrepreneur and visionary and has gained a national reputation for developing, operating and marketing first-class courses, including Bali Hai Golf Club, Royal Links Golf Club and Desert Pines Golf Club. His vision and close relationships with major Vegas hotel executives helped to create his unique development philosophy of themed Vegas courses, similar to the themed structures of the major Strip properties. Visitors to Vegas can experience hotels with themes from around the world and because of Bill Walters; golfers can experience “golf from around the world.”

In the first major move following the partnership, LasVegasGolf.com has been relaunched and redesigned to incorporate the expansive golf expertise offered by both partners. With the enhancements, visitors can now book tee times, read course reviews and feature stories and secure deals on Las Vegas’ most popular and exciting golf courses.
