The challenge
Spectators at a multi-day tournament need a single place for live scoring and on-site engagement - without relying on slow updates or disconnected apps.
The platform also had to support real-time tour data feeds, interactive games during play, admin control of schedule and scoring, and audiences across English, Arabic and Chinese.
Our approach
We worked with another development company to ship the event platform under tournament deadlines - pairing live scoring from an official tour data feed with fan-facing games, rewards and big-screen leaderboards.
Work covered both the Next.js front end and Express/MongoDB services, with Firebase auth and a themeable UI built for the event’s brand and languages.
The solution
Together we delivered a Next.js + Express fan engagement platform backed by MongoDB and Firebase, with automated tournament score ingestion and rich on-site experiences.
- Near real-time tournament scoring from an official tour API
- Fan leaderboards, results and big-screen display modes
- Interactive games: hole/team voting, back-nine challenges, QR hunt and quiz
- Multilingual UI (English, Arabic, Chinese) with admin tools for a multi-day event
The outcome
Fans had a live, playable companion for tournament week - scoring and engagement in one place, in their language.
- Live scores and leaderboards instead of waiting on delayed updates
- On-site games and rewards that kept spectators involved between holes
- Ops-friendly admin tooling for a multi-day event
The platform was delivered for tournament week through a collaborative build with another development company.
