Eldrick, an'AI golf robot' developed in the United States, became a global hot topic by recording a hole-in-one in a par 3 hole at a pro-am event in 2016.
After learning the shots of 17,000 golfers with artificial intelligence, Eldrick read the course in five attempts to find the correct shot.
Lee Eldrick visited Korea to meet with the national team coach Park Se-ri.
[Hello, Se-ri Park.]
[Se-ri Park/Tokyo Olympic Women's Golf Team Manager: Your face is so cute."
Goodbye!]
Coach Park played a shot battle with Kim Sang-jung, who is known as a golf
expert
in the entertainment industry.
[Park Se-ri/Tokyo Olympic Women's Golf Team Manager: I think it’s going to be great if it’s right.] The
driver shot, the iron tee shot, and the putting. Like an AI, I quickly corrected errors and made more and more elaborate shots.
[Park Se-ri/Tokyo Olympic Women's Golf Team Manager: I think I also knew the new world.
I think AI can play a big role in a direction where athletes can help while exercising.]
From basketball robots that can accurately shoot long distances, table tennis robots that naturally exchange rally, and golf robots that find the best shot on any course, advanced AI technology is increasingly expanding the field of sports.
