Project Overview

Project Overview

Golf outings and weekend tournaments often involve multiple scoring formats such as skins, Stableford, and team match play. These formats traditionally require manual score tracking and lengthy post-round calculations. Medalist Golf was created to simplify this process by offering a mobile platform that manages live scoring, tournament standings, and match formats directly on the course.

The client partnered with JPLoft to develop an intelligent scoring system designed specifically for golf events and group competitions. The focus was on real-time leaderboard updates, automated match calculations, and instant scoring alerts. The platform enables players to follow tournament progress, monitor other matches, and manage complex scoring formats without interrupting gameplay.
