The PDGA has unveiled a revamped version of its live scoring platform, PDGA Live, which offers an improved user experience for disc golf enthusiasts. The updated app and website now feature new features such as Throw Tracker, expanded statistics, and enhanced accessibility options.


One of the standout features of the new PDGA Live is the Throw Tracker, which allows users to watch each throw in text form during live events. This feature is enabled by default and provides a detailed breakdown of each player's performance, including where they landed their drives, if they had to scramble, and how many times they putted in each circle.


In addition to Throw Tracker, the PDGA Live app now offers expanded statistics, which provide users with a more comprehensive understanding of each player's performance. The new stats tab shows how each player compares to others, including who hit the fairway on their drive the most, who has the best circle 2 putting, and what is a player's average putt distance.


The PDGA Live app also now offers enhanced accessibility options, including a color-accessible palette that can be enabled by turning on a toggle. This feature will eventually be available in the app as well, but for now, it is only accessible on the web version. Dark mode is still available in the app, and users can find it under settings.


The updated PDGA Live platform also provides real-time scores and stats directly to live broadcasts on the Disc Golf Network. Full stats are currently available for only PDGA Elite Series events on the Disc Golf Pro Tour and PDGA Majors.


Playoff scoring is another new feature that has been added to the PDGA Live platform. This feature allows tournament directors to designate playoff details in Tournament Manager, providing users with a more detailed understanding of each player's performance during playoffs.


The PDGA plans to continue updating the PDGA Live platform with new features and improvements. Users can submit their ideas for improvement using the feedback form on the app itself or by contacting the PDGA Event Support Team for questions or support inquiries.
