We all know the big news in golf last week was Yuka Saso’s dramatic victory in the U.S. Women’s Open at The Olympic Club in San Francisco. The Filipino Japanese phenom is only the second teenager to capture the championship in its 76-year history. While that was happening, another historic event took place (with much less fanfare)—149 contestants had swings captured in 4D.

The San Francisco-based company, 4DReplay, pulled off the feat using 88 cameras that encircled the 6th tee at the Lake Course. And, almost magically, the 4D swings popped up for all to experience on the USGA’s U.S. Women’s Open mobile app. Those who download the app can view swings like never before. The same 4D experience will be part of next week’s U.S. Open as well.
