The EDGA development and eligibility team began research into the sports classes at the Amendoeira Golf Resort in Portugal, the data of over 25 players competing in the Amendoeira event was collected and data from over 1100 shots was recorded against a specific research protocol to initiate the ongoing research into how various impairments play. More data collection will follow to develop the cohort of analysis data required.
EDGA would like to thank the R&A for the use of their Trackman launch monitor and Srixon for providing golf balls for the testing.
