Put a live golf leaderboard on the clubhouse TV

Nothing makes a tournament feel professional like a live leaderboard on the big screen in the clubhouse. You don't need special hardware to do it.

Any TV or projector with a web browser works — a smart TV, a laptop plugged into an HDMI cable, or a cheap streaming stick. Open the TV board URL, press fullscreen (F11 on a laptop), and walk away. The board polls for new scores and updates itself.

A good TV board is designed for across-the-room reading: huge type, high contrast, red numbers for under par, and auto-rotating views so overall, flights, and skins each get their moment. ScrambleBoard uses a deep-green scoreboard theme on the TV by default.

At member-guests and corporate outings, the board doubles as sponsor inventory. Rotating a sponsor's logo between leaderboard views is a sellable slot that helps underwrite the event.

Everything on the TV comes from the same live scores your players are tapping in. Read how QR scoring feeds it or how to run a scramble start to finish.
