Bryson DeChambeau secured his 2nd U.S Open Title recently, and his 1st major title in 4 years. He shot 6 under par to clinch the U.S. Open. He was grateful to his family, friends, agents, and coach, Dana Dahlquist, and also to Sportsbox AI, a tech startup that helped him win the U.S. Open.

“Every ball Bryson has hit on the range this week has been recorded on video by a team member of the SportsBox AI team, an app company that uses video to produce 3D measurements of your golf swing. The measurements SportsBox generates are far too small and specific to spot with the naked eye: Things like “Pelvis Lift,” and “Degrees of Chest Rotation.” – Golf Digest

Sportsbox AI app is a state-of-the-art technology that analyses every minute detail of body movement along with golf swing. After using Sportsbox as a coaching tool for a few years, Dahlquist saw a pattern in DeChambeau’s data that was causing his drives to miss out to the right. DeChambeau is continuing to use Sportsbox AI to improve his golf swing further. Technology has swung its way into the world of golf, equipment is more advanced, modern clubs are lighter, and these things have also had an impact on training. Video analysis lets golfers see their swing in slow motion, pinpointing areas for improvement. Launch monitors track swing metrics like club head speed and spin rate, club face & path, angle of attack, and smash factor, providing valuable data for personalized practice. Technology has made golf more accessible. Swing simulators allow golfers to practice indoors or virtually. Technology has had a huge impact on every sport. Sports have become data-driven, and the analysis is used to improve athlete’s performance. India has great golf courses and immense pool of talent, advanced technology like Sportsbox AI can push Indian golf to greater heights. Sports Performance industry needs such technology, to improve a golfer’s game with the help of data.

The CFL Studio run by Protouch Golf Academy at The Tollygunge Club, Kolkata is the only golf center in India which is well equipped with advanced technology which help athletes identify their weaknesses and improve their overall performance.  The CFL Studio is a first of its kind in India where AI technology has combined with launch monitor to have the most detailed analysis possible. The AI technology with 64 parameters measures body movements from 6 angles along with the launch monitor analyzing 12 club and 14 ball parameters at the same time. This 3D biomechanics technology not only helps a golfer improve but also helps in preventing injuries. Club fitting also becomes more accurate. Two TV screens at the studio simultaneously project all the numbers and a lesson synopsis with a voiceover is sent to the students after the lesson.
