For fans on site in Charleston, the app also features on-site player tracking, which allows spectators to locate their favorite competitors on the course and practice areas, as well as an on-course map that highlights amenities and fan activations.  Fans will never miss a moment of action via app notifications that will alert fans to player autograph signings, special events and promotions, and more.
