Connecting the impossible: Intelligent courses at the Ryder Cup

Golf is undeniably one of the most challenging sports in the world from a logistical and operational standpoint. Especially when it comes to connecting the hundreds or thousands of smart devices dotted around them during major tournaments.


Courses are huge areas, several kilometers square. They have dozens of acres of maintained grass, geographical challenges, roads, trees, and often other services on or near them that need to be skirted around or crossed. They are open to the elements. In short, providing connectivity is a huge challenge.


That's the challenge for our guest this week, Chief Technology Officer for the European Tour Group and Ryder Cup Europe, Michael Cole. We'll be talking about creating 21st-century connected ecosystems in the most extreme environments, as well as the future of golf as a 'smart' sport.


This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week we look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organisations and what we can learn from it.
