The Troon Game Performance HUB debuts as the perfect complement to the Company’s annual Troon Player Development Month throughout May, as facilities and Troon Golf Academies throughout the world amplify instructional opportunities and encourage golfers to participate in the Troon Swing Challenge.
As part of the HUB experience, Troon will connect golfers around the world with on course performance tracking insights from Shot Scope that capture and analyze shot data from tee-to-green, providing access to over 100 statistics, with detailed information on every shot taken during a round.
