6th February 2024 – Golf Genius, the leading provider of cloud-based golf software solutions, has been chosen by World Golf Competition (WGC) to power its schedule of major events.
From 2025 onwards, World Golf Competition will deploy Golf Genius’ Tournament Management solution to digitally enhance the event experience for WGC participants.
WGC is a global amateur tournament series with events staged across Australasia, Europe and North America. Played on the world’s best courses, the series aims to deliver a professional tournament experience combined with first-class accommodation, travel, and the opportunity to progress to a world final.
“Innovation and technology play a key part in WGC’s delivery of high-class events, so utilising the leading provider of Tournament Management software made perfect sense,” commented WGC’s Chief Operating Officer, Callum Bakken.
“As a result of this announcement, WGC participants will receive an elevated end-to-end experience, and WGC tournament staff will become far more efficient in the process.”
WGC will deploy a range of Golf Genius Tournament Management features to support the delivery of their best-in-class golf events, including live mobile scoring, TV leaderboards, customisable event websites, personalised communications and WHS handicapping.
Peter Shaw, General Manager for Golf Genius APAC, commented: “We are excited to be supporting WGC with their tournament series and look forward to helping them create higher levels of player engagement and operational efficiencies throughout.”
