Integration with Rapsodo Launch Monitor Adds Powerful Capability to New Golf Genius Coaching Product Coming Later this Year
Wayne, PA —Golf Genius, a leading provider of digital solutions to the golf industry, today announced a long-term contractual relationship with Rapsodo, a leading sports analytics company that empowers athletes and coaches to analyze and improve their game.
According to George Hansen, Director of Business Development at Golf Genius, “We are very pleased to be partnering with Rapsodo, whose popular and proven launch monitor technology is an attractive option to our coaching product coming to market later this year.” The Rapsodo Mobile Launch Monitor uses the power and convenience of the iPhone or iPad to provide immediate feedback on launch data, instant video replay and active shot tracking at a price all golfers can afford. Added Hansen, “Professional golf coaches are eager to adopt a truly comprehensive solution that will help them better serve their students and build their businesses. Launch monitors have become important learning tools and coaches typically don’t have convenient access to personal launch monitor data. We know partnering with an innovator like Rapsodo is something these coaches and students will be very excited about.”
Art Chou, North American General Manager at Rapsodo, noted that MyGolfSpy named the Rapsodo Mobile Launch Monitor the “Best Personal Golf Launch Monitor for 2021”. Chou commented: “This partnership with Golf Genius means we will be tightly integrating our launch monitor data with their coaching product, allowing seamless access to our personal launch monitor data. Our product is a natural fit with Golf Genius and we are confident that by working together we can deliver important benefits to both golf coaches and their golf students.”
Golf Genius previewed their new coaching product at the 2022 PGA Merchandise Show and the product is expected to be generally available later this year.
