Disc golfers can now easily share their tournament triumphs with friends and family thanks to the latest upgrade to the PDGA Digital Scorecard. The new share feature allows players to showcase their final score, event rating, and more in just a few clicks.


The idea behind this update is to make it simple for players to share their results without having to take screenshots or manually upload information. "Image sharing is the natural evolution of the PDGA Live scorecard," said PDGA Director of Technology Peter Crist. "Disc golfers love to share their results, and we want to make it easy for them to do that."


To access the share feature, players can click on their name under the tournament results section on PDGA Live and select the share button. From there, they can choose between a scorecard option or summary option. The scorecard option allows users to relive every hole, while the summary option includes a breakdown of birdie and bogey percentages, round ratings for each round, and more.


The PDGA Digital Scorecard has been widely used since its inception, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2020, over 2,000 events used the digital scorecard to record over 306,000 completed rounds. So far in 2021, 41 tournaments have utilized the platform for a total of 5,768 recorded rounds.


"Players are starting to get used to digital scoring by this point, and it's been an absolute game-changer," said PDGA Events Coordinator Todd Lion. "Round two starting holes and tee times can be published within minutes of the round one scores being turned in."


In addition to sharing their results, players can also create an account on PDGA.com and upload an avatar, giving fans a face to associate with their hot rounds. The share feature is just the latest upgrade to the platform, making it even easier for players to showcase their skills on social media.


Overall, this new update will make sharing tournament results more efficient and enjoyable for disc golfers everywhere.
