What actually happens inside TrackMan HQ — and how much of that data should golfers really be paying attention to?

In this episode of Linked By Golf, we’re joined by Stevie Carmichael, EMEA Alliances Director at TrackMan and former elite Scottish amateur, for an inside look at how the world’s leading golf technology is used by tour players, coaches, and high-level amateurs.

From stories at Wentworth, to how elite players balance feel vs facts, Stevie breaks down what TrackMan data does well, where golfers often misunderstand it, and how to use it without overcomplicating your game.

This is a must-listen if you’ve ever chased numbers on the range — or wondered what really matters.
