RIDGELAND, MS, … SkyCaddie® GPS technology has scored a third win in quick succession on the 2023 Legends Tour, after ex-Ryder Cup star and SkyCaddie user, Peter Baker won the recent JCB Championship.
The victory, which propels the 55-year-old Englishman to second place behind Alex Cejka on the MCB Road To Mauritius, is Baker’s second on the Legends Tour this season following his Irish Legends win at Seapoint in late June.
In all, 21 of the top 30 finishers at The JCB Championship used SkyCaddie GPS during the rain-shortened tournament.
SkyCaddie GPS became the Official Distance Measuring Device of the Legends Tour in June 2023. Players who use SkyCaddies during tournaments can download each day’s pin locations, with Legends Tour officials using SkyCaddie’s ground-mapped yardages to set pin positions.
SkyCaddie, the only company that professionally surveys each hole of every course on foot, also provides printed Pin Sheets to players for events on the Legends Tour, formerly known as the Staysure Tour and European Senior Tour.
The Legends Tour is one of the world’s most prestigious tours to allow players to use Distance Measuring Devices (DMDs) during competitive play. In 2022 SkyCaddie GPS users made up over two-thirds of the field across the season – claiming eight victories and 14 runner-up spots.
Australian golfer, Richard Green also used SkyCaddie on his way to victory in the Jersey Legends tournament at La Moye in June. Green currently lies 5th on the MCB Road To Mauritius.
