TV

Toptracer (originally Protracer) was founded in 2006 in Sweden with the goal to enrich the experience of watching golf on TV. Ever since the world’s leading TV networks were first introduced to Toptracer, the technology has been used in major golfing events around the world including The Open Championship, PGA Championship, US Open and the Ryder Cup in order to give their viewers a richer TV experience. Toptracer is the most advanced ball tracking technology on the market and with over 150 TV productions annually it is the most widely used ball tracking technology worldwide. 


Range

Toptracer Range was first launched in 2012 and is now available in over 80 locations worldwide. Toptracer Range, which is based on the same camera technology as Toptracer TV, allows for simultaneous tracking of every shot hit on the range and is now transforming the range experience for golfers of all skill levels. Take on the world in a long-drive competition, play Closest to the Pin with your friends, dive into advanced analytics to fine-tune your swing, and virtually tee it up at some of the world’s greatest courses. Your range experience will never be the same.
