Golf has boomed during the pandemic, with more new players picking up a club for the first time (500,000 in the U.S. in 2020, according to the National Golf Foundation) and established players increasing their number of rounds (61 million more rounds played in 2020 than in 2019).

Golf has boomed during the pandemic, with more new players picking up a club for the first time (500,000 in the U.S. in 2020, according to the National Golf Foundation) and established players increasing their number of rounds (61 million more rounds played in 2020 than in 2019). In a technique-obsessed sport where an infinitesimal change of angle can send a ball soaring into the abyss rather than onto the green, more than a million players a year seek state-of-the-art instruction at one of data-centric GOLFTEC’s more than 200 locations in North America and Asia. In July 2021, the company released OptiMotion, a unique motion capture and measurement system that uses HD cameras and AI to reproduce swings in 3D, all in a wireless, sensor-less environment. In the months since the new technology debuted, GOLFTEC reports having taught more than 800,000 lessons using OptiMotion, adding significantly to the digital library of 14 million swings the company has captured since its 1995 founding in Denver."
