FEATURE : DP WORLD TOUR CHAMPIONSHIP
This platform extends across four key pillars .
Re-imagining spectator experience
Greater connectivity , enhanced navigation and interactive communications to optimise the tournament experience , enabling fans to spend more time watching golf , soaking up the atmosphere and immersing themselves in the unique experience .
This included new every-shot commentary displayed across the digital screens , a virtual twin animation which takes spectators into a parallel digital experience if they cannot see a whole live in person , and gaming features such as Nearest the Pin .
The intelligent course
Technology ensured this DPWT Championship was the most data-driven ever by implementing a visualisation platform which meant fans and staff could make smarter real-time decisions . Examples included using the player locator app , fans could see where each match was via a map and their latest through scores .
Improving connectivity
The DP World Tour continues to roll-out a best of breed networking infrastructure , which will see Wi-Fi 6e and a true environmental IoT platform rolled-out across our tournaments in the Middle East from 2025 . Fans will experience a more highly secure and easierto-get-connected experience than ever before , and possibly the first ever solar-powered Wi-Fi in the Middle East too . key technological platform for driving greater regional interest and global growth in golf .
We actively encourage fans to use their phones and take advantage of the technology on offer , so they always know what is going on across the site and feel as close to the action as possible .
