ORLANDO, Fla. (Feb. 10, 2016) – Golfweek Custom Media debuted its brand-new Mobile Tournament Program platform with great success at last week’s Allianz Championship. Increasing fan engagement through interactive content, along with creating new marketing avenues for sponsors, the Mobile Tournament Program proved to be an exciting enhancement to the overall experience of the Allianz Championship.
“As the Allianz Championship celebrated its tenth year in Boca Raton, we were thrilled to have the Mobile Tournament Program as a new addition to the event,” said Anthony Greco, director of corporate sales & marketing for the Allianz Championship. “This innovative asset gave our fans a new perspective on the tournament and opened up more opportunities for sponsors.”
Designed exclusively for smartphones, each Mobile Tournament Program provides a unique experience for event attendees and far-away fans alike. Four simple navigation categories give users access to special content from Golfweek Custom Media experts and their participating partners.
• Course Info & Map: Hole stats, flyover videos/photos, interactive course maps and tournament trivia
• Pairings & Players: Daily tournament pairings, player bios/stats and player trivia
• Feature Stories: Exclusive articles, daily news, photos/videos and podcasts/interviews
• Live@: Live scoring, weather updates, real-time blogs and social feeds
“These Mobile Tournament Programs add a whole new dimension to the events,” said Golfweek Custom Media Publisher Michael Hagmann. “Building upon three decades as the leading producer of programs and pairings guides, we’re evolving our products even further so we can provide golf fans the opportunity to experience events like never before.”
In addition to the Allianz Championship, Golfweek Custom Media will be producing Mobile Tournament Programs for the following 2016 events: Honda Classic, Valspar Championship, Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by MasterCard, ANA Inspiration, Swinging Skirts LPGA Classic, Zurich Classic of New Orleans, Wells Fargo Championship, Colonial National Invitation Tournament, Quicken Loans National, Dick’s Sporting Goods Open and Deutsche Bank Championship.
