ANNIKA WAPT Expands Partnership with Circles in 2024
DALLAS, TEXAS—The ANNIKA Women’s All Pro Tour proudly announces its continued and expanded partnership with Circles, a shot-data fueled strokes-gained platform developed to help golfers draw more circles on their scorecards.
In addition to providing the best opportunities for developmental women's golf to advance, ANNIKA WAPT continues to provide its players with access to the best tools available to improve their game. This partnership provides all members of ANNIKA WAPT full access to the Circles Play platform. This premium platform provides each player with detailed shot analysis to target areas of their game for improvement, build practice plans, and in-depth course strategies to maximize practice sessions and compete at the highest level each round.
"We are thrilled to continue our partnership with the ANNIKA Women’s All Pro Tour in 2024, a collaboration that represents our shared commitment to nurturing the next generation of players”, said Hamish Mitchell, Circles Head of Operations. “By integrating Circles’ detailed performance insights with the tour’s competitive platform, we provide a unique support system for players aiming for the LPGA. Circles is excited to make available our leading insights to ANNIKA All Pro Tour players, alongside support from our team to ensure players are resourced with the information they need to be successful."
Additionally, Circles will sponsor the “Circles Player of the Week” and “Circles Most Improved Player” programs, each determined by the data provided by the players utilizing the Circles platform. Each “Circles Player of the Week” will earn a complimentary entry into a future ANNIKA WAPT event, with the Most Improved Player receiving an additional one-year subscription to the Circles Play platform in 2025 and a complimentary membership to the ANNIKA WAPT in 2025.
