How this new golf tech can streamline your next tournament or buddies trip

Setting up a golf tournament for a small buddies trip or larger group just got a whole lot easier. Enter Fairgame Golf, which is launching its new tournament management platform: Fairgame Pro.

The company’s original app, Fairgame Golf, allows users to create a social profile, play different game modes, track stats and wagers and keep track of a handicap.

That will now seamlessly integrate with Fairgame Pro, which was created to simplify and enhance the administrative side of golf events, tournaments and leagues. The company says its tournament management features will help golfers move away from single-use apps and enjoy a more streamlined experience.

“Our extensive research and conversations with golf professionals, event organizers and enthusiasts highlighted a critical need for a platform that marries design excellence with functional robustness,” said Fairgame Golf co-founder and CEO Eric Mayville in a release. “We are proud to introduce a software solution that not only meets but exceeds these expectations, offering unprecedented ease of use, automation and design sophistication.”

According to Mayville, the new platform will save hours of administrative work through automatic player registration and an intuitive user interface, among other features.

“There have only been a few players that set the bar in our industry for years, a testament to their enduring legacy,” Mayville said. “Yet, in this legacy, we’ve identified a thrilling chance to elevate the game of golf. Our mission is to infuse the sport with our consumer-centric design, unparalleled user experience and cutting-edge technology. We’re here to redefine the integration of golf and technology. Our goal is clear: to craft unforgettable golfing experiences where technology enhances every moment, not dominates it.”

GOLF is even teaming up with Fairgame to use the new Fairgame Pro platform for the upcoming InsideGOLF Pinehurst Experience trip, May 28-30. The trip includes a round at the new No. 10 course, a behind-the-scenes tour of No. 2 as it prepares to host the U.S. Open, golf at The Cradle, breakfasts and dinners at some of the coolest spots in golf and what promises to be a lively conversation with Peter Kostis and Gary McCord. Plus, lots more!
