SkyCaddie helps pros to dominate Legends Tour

From seven events on the Legends Tour, there’s been seven wins for players who use SkyCaddie so far this season.

That’s seven different wins from seven different players, on the same tour. Unsurprisingly, that’s a record for SkyCaddie, the official distance measuring device on the Legends Tour.

Tour officials use SkyCaddie’s ground-mapped GPS yardages to create pin sheets when setting each day’s pins. Legends Tour competitors can download the day’s accurate hole positions onto their SkyCaddie, and can also get a printed pin sheet for the day.

For those players choosing to put SkyCaddie devices in play, it’s been a dominant start to the season.

England’s Peter Baker won the season-opening Barbados Legends event in May – continuing his dominance after winning the 2023 Race To Mauritius Order Of Merit.

Clark Dennis from the USA won the second event, the Costa Navarino Legends in June, followed by Angel Cabrera at the Paul Lawrie Matchplay, and Brazilian golfer Adilson da Silva at the Irish Legends in the same month.

Jarmo Sandelin from Sweden won the Swiss Seniors Open in mid-July, and England’s Robert Coles took home the prestigious Staysure PGA Seniors Championship trophy in August, at the Trump International Golf Links near Aberdeen.

Finally, South African Keith Horne won the Zambia Golf Legends tournament in mid-August – to become the season’s seventh different winner to use SkyCaddie GPS distances for accurate yardages during the tournament.

As a player using a SkyCaddie has won every single event during which distance measurement devices were allowed to be used, it is no surprise that the top ten in the current Legends Tour order of merit, at the time of writing, are all SkyCaddie users.

“If we were Red Bull and this was Formula One, people would be complaining about predictability!” said SkyCaddie’s James Holmes. “But this is tournament golf, which is much, much harder to predict – there are so many more variables.

“The one predictable factor so far in 2024 has been SkyCaddie GPS in the winner’s circle.

“SkyCaddie GPS gives you more chance of winning golf tournaments.

“The facts prove this beyond any doubt. Because we walk every golf course to produce comprehensive and accurate data for every hole, every keen golfer will get an advantage if they can access SkyCaddie GPS yardages when playing in a competition – just like the stars on the Legends Tour.

“A SkyCaddie also helps you to play faster – for example, course management tasks such as calculating layup shots or yardages to a safe landing spot beyond hazards become instantaneous. A SkyCaddie gives you more confidence in your yardage than using a book, and unlike a laser, which is restricted to line-of-sight only, you can use a SkyCaddie in many additional situations such as on hilly courses, from the tee across dog legs or when you are out of position without a clear sight of the green.”
