On the 12th, Golfzon held the 2023 Golfzon Sponsored Players Signing Ceremony at the Korea Press Center in Jung-gu, Seoul. Six players were selected, including Kim Seung-min, a full member of the Korea Professional Golfers' Association (KPGA), as well as Yoo Hyun-jun, Lee Woo-hyun, Lee So-yoon, Danzella Chanel, and Kang Yeon-jin. Golfzon actively supports the sponsored players to participate steadily in domestic and international tours. Systematic lessons are also provided through Golfzon Red Better Academy (GLA), a specialized training institution.

Kim Seung-min turned professional this year. In August, he participated as an invited player in the KPGA Korean Tour Woosung Construction Open and finished tied for 3rd place. Yoo Hyun-jun and Lee Woo-hyun served as national team members and national team reserves this year. Lee So-yoon is a tall promising player with a height of 176 cm. Chanel's father is Italian, and this year she swept the middle school division at the Daejeon Mayor's Cup and the Daejeon Association President's Cup. Kang Yeon-jin won the Honma Cup youth division this year. Coach Sung Si-woo said, "We will produce a winner within five years," and added, "I will guide male players to become world number one in the rankings."

Golfzon has been sponsoring players since 2017. It has produced players such as Kim Sung-hyun, who advanced to the U.S. Professional Golfers' Association (PGA) Tour, Kim Dong-eun, the Rookie of the Year on the Korean Tour last year, and Kim Han-byul, who has won three times on the Korean Tour. Since April, it has been supporting promising players affiliated with GLA, including Kim Joo-hyuk, Park Ji-hoon, Han Chang-won, Lee Doo-yeol, and Kim Gyu-ri.
