About TLINK GOLF:
TLINK GOLF, headquartered in Calgary, Canada, was founded by Derek Rucki and Stefan Radeta in 2013. The duo developed a GPS watch that displays a golfer’s distance to the front, middle and back of the green. The Bluetooth watch works by syncing with a smartphone app that has over 30,000 golf courses available; golfers pair the watch with the app, allowing them to put their smartphones away and read the distances solely using the watch. Players can track their score, putts, greens in regulation, and fairways hit right from the watch. With the TLINK’s built in accelerometer it is also tracking daily steps, distance walked, and calories burned both on and off the course.
Rucki was a top ranked junior golfer who observed the GPS golf watch trend firsthand while playing in golf tournaments. However; most of these GPS golf watches are expensive costing from $200.00 to $500.00. His vision was keen, the company would produce a GPS golf watch which would retail at $99.00. This price point would be a TLINK exclusive.
TLINK has been in the marketplace since 2015. In that short period, the company has gained tens of thousands of incredible golfers in the TLINK GOLF community who have used the TILINK GPS golf watch and activity tracker. Open dialog with the TLINK GOLF community has helped with their development team with upgrades and new features to be announced leading up to the show.
The commercial TLINK GOLF division sells the TLINK GPS golf watch and activity trackers as corporate gifts which are fully labeled for any brand. For the same cost as a golf shirt, the company offers the most wearable technology in sports branding from top to bottom.
TLINK GOLF brands the entire watch with a corporate identity as well as the entire packaging. In addition, TLINK GOLF brands a custom leader for any corporate tournament. Current accounts include; Boeing, Budweiser, Michelob Ultra, Coors Light, Honda, Acura, and the Detroit Pistons.
