  • Memorial Tournament Will Use High-Tech Badges to Track Everyone on Grounds by Dave Shedloski Reprinted from Golf World
    InProduction thought you might enjoy this reprint… Memorial Tournament will use high-tech badges to track everyone on grounds By Dave Shedloski Reprinted from Golf World n preparing for the rescheduled Memorial Tournament in Dublin, Ohio, in mid-July, Executive Direc- tor Dan Sullivan and his staff just might be providing a blueprint for future PGA Tour events in this era Iof social distancing amid the coronavirus pandemic. That blueprint includes the high-tech use of an RFID (radio frequency identification) chip in tournament badges to help maintain a healthy spacing of its patrons. Sullivan outlined a number of plans and safety measures for the 45th Memorial, slated for July 16-19, during a 30-minute “Virtual Sports Report” conducted via Zoom on Thursday by the Greater Columbus Sports Commission. Protocols he highlighted also include limiting ticket sales, curtailing capacity in the clubhouse and public gathering structures, elimination of all grandstands, supplying face coverings for staff and volunteers, taking the temperature of everyone who enters the grounds, prohibiting the sale of draft beer and fountain drinks, restricting all transactions to credit and debit cards, and distributing a healthy dose of hand sanitizer stations throughout the property. But it’s the RFID technology in the badges, which the Memorial has used for the last four years to monitor entrances and exits and identify choke points at Muirfield Village Golf Club, that could be the most important aspect of the tournament game plan. The chip cannot ascertain an individual’s identity, just the location of the badge. “At any time we can know around the golf course how many people are collecting in a certain area,” Sullivan said.
