Finally, ShotLink Technology Is Coming to Women's Golf

Every shot in the U.S. Women's Open at Pebble Beach will be recorded and accessible—for the first time ever at a women’s event.

For the first time a digital tracking system will log every single shot hit at the 2023 U.S. Women’s Open, a long overdue development in women’s professional golf. The tournament will utilize the PGA Tour’s ShotLink technology to power the USGA’s new "ShotCast" system, powered by Cisco.

According to Golfweek’s Beth Ann Nichols, when such technology is implemented this summer at Pebble Beach Golf Links, it will be the first time ShotLink data will be accessible at a professional women’s golf tournament. 

For more than 20 years the PGA Tour has utilized ShotLink, which requires a staff of 350 volunteers per week. 

Now, fans and media will have the same data at their disposal for the best female players in the world at a renowned major championship venue. 

The championship, which will take place at Pebble Beach from July 6-9, will allow fans to track every shot in real time. The USGA website and app will allow users to access 3D models of every hole at the scenic oceanside course, while catching up on their favorite players’ rounds.
