This study analyzed the resilience profile of amateur golfers, focusing on personal characteristics (gender, age group, average score, golf experience, and occupation). For this purpose, amateur golfers were set as the population, and data were collected and analyzed from a sample of 206 members from indoor and outdoor practice facilities across the Daejeon, Chungnam, and Gyeonggi regions. Based on the analysis results, the following conclusions were drawn: First, gender revealed differences in the relational and situational factors of resilience among amateur golfers, with female golfers demonstrating higher resilience levels than male golfers. Furthermore, female golfers showed a tendency for higher situational resilience as their relational resilience increased, suggesting that gender is a significant variable influencing the correlation between relational and situational factors. Second, age group differences were observed in the situational factor of resilience, with golfers in their 40s displaying the highest resilience levels and those in their 30s showing the lowest. Third, golf experience influenced the temperamental and philosophical factors of resilience. Golfers with less than three years of experience scored highest in the temperamental factor, while those with six to nine years of experience scored highest in the philosophical factor. Additionally, among amateur golfers with six to nine years of experience, the correlation between these two factors was the strongest, indicating that golf experience plays a crucial role in the relationship between temperamental and philosophical resilience factors. Fourth, average score impacted the relational and situational factors of resilience, with golfers scoring in the 70s showing the highest resilience levels, while those scoring over 100 displayed the lowest. The correlation between these two factors was strongest in the 70–90 range and weakest in the 80 range, indicating that average score significantly affects the relationship between relational and situational resilience. Fifth, occupation did not present a significant difference in resilience levels among amateur golfers.
