5 Tips to Stay Sun Safe on the Golf Course
Apply Sunscreen: Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30. Apply it generously on all exposed skin at least 15 minutes before heading out, and reapply every two hours, or more often if sweating.
Wear Protective Clothing: Opt for lightweight, long-sleeved shirts and long pants made from UV-protective fabric. Consider wearing a wide-brimmed hat to shield your face and neck from direct sunlight.
Seek Shade: Take breaks in shaded areas whenever possible, especially during peak sun hours (10 a.m. to 4 p.m.). Use an umbrella or find natural shade from trees on the course.
Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout your round to keep your body cool and hydrated. Dehydration can make you more susceptible to sunburn and heat-related illnesses.
Wear Sunglasses: Protect your eyes from harmful UV rays by wearing sunglasses that block 100% of UVA and UVB rays. Look for wrap-around styles for better coverage.
