The Player Locator platform offers a range of features aimed at enriching the fan experience.

Among these is the integration of the Official Scoring System, ensuring that fans can access real-time scores and statistics effortlessly. This feature provides up-to-the-minute updates on player performance, keeping them fully engaged with the unfolding tournament action.
