Bryson DeChambeau may have finished third in LIV Golf's latest event in South Korea, but that doesn't mean he's pleased with his game. DeChambeau, who won back-to-back LIV events in March, found himself one shot back of the lead after the opening two rounds in South Korea, but put together a disappointing third round at 1-over par. As is often the case for DeChambeau after what he deems to be a lackluster performance, it turned into a long night on the driving range searching for something.

WASHINGTON (The Washington Post) – PGA golfers such as four-time major champion Rory McIlroy embrace the tens of thousands of data points – roughly 32,000 per event – that the tour's ShotLink System has offered since 2001. "I made the decision at the end of last year to really look at my stats," McIlroy said after last week's Travelers Championship. "I think they've become very important, and I think the strokes-gained stats, whether it's tee to green or putting or around the green or whatever, I think that's been one of the biggest changes for good that we've seen in golf, because it really just lets you see how your game stacks up against everyone else." For the first time Thursday at the Quicken Loans National at TPC Potomac at Avenel Farm, three fixed, high-resolution cameras, part of the tour's upgraded ShotLink ball-tracking system, replaced the human-operated laser on every green of every hole, capturing the ball in motion as opposed to only the ball at rest. "It's the next phase of how we get the data without having to have human interaction on everything that happens," said Matt Troka, senior vice president of product and partner management of CDW, a technology partner of the PGA Tour.

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, FLORIDA – Following successful technology launches over the last three years in augmented reality and virtual reality, the PGA TOUR has unveiled Artificial Intelligence (AI) platforms to enhance broadcast and digital storytelling. Among the TOUR's primary areas of focus in AI are a Microsoft-developed Content Relevancy Engine (CRE), a smart video clipping tool and an automated story creator that all utilize data captured by ShotLink powered by CDW. Microsoft has collaborated with the TOUR to develop an application built on Microsoft's Azure cloud that can sift through nearly 20 years of statistical data collected by the TOUR's proprietary scoring system, ShotLink powered by CDW, as well as 80,000-plus hours of video in the TOUR's digital library to provide real-time statistical trends and storylines relevant to the current action. The CRE provides contextual content for television broadcasts and digital properties to enhance fan understanding of competitive situations as they occur. "The PGA TOUR strives to be a leader in sports innovation with a goal of reaching new fans globally," said Steve Evans, SVP Information Systems of the PGA TOUR.
