CTOnews.com January 28 news, Apple Watch will be in this year's entire World Surf League (World Surf League) season. The World Surf League has announced that Apple Watch is now the league's "official wearable device," along with a new World Surf League surfer app that will "provide athletes with real-time critical information."

This marks the first time Apple Watch has been named an "official competitive device in a professional sports environment." "Throughout the Champions Tour (CT) season, elite athletes at WSL CT will receive access to the new WSL Surfer app on Apple Watch Series 8 and Apple Watch Ultra, enabling them to get information in the water during their matches," the league explained in a press release today.

A specially developed WSL Surfer app on Apple Watch synchronizes with the WSL scoring system in real time. This provides athletes with the information they need during the race, including scores, wave priorities and warm-up times, and is sent directly to their wrists. Apple Watch is uniquely suited for this task because of its bright, large screen, durable design and cellular connectivity.

CTOnews.com has learned that WSL players receive an Apple Watch Ultra or Apple Watch Series 8 before each match, and that the device will come pre-loaded with the WSL Surfer app. Before Apple Watch was officially adopted this year, WSL tested the technology over the past two seasons to "make sure it meets the needs of the game."

Eric Sue, Apple's director of product marketing for Apple Watch, said of the new partnership: "We're excited that WSL is using Apple Watch on the Champions Tour, enabling surfers to simply and easily glance at their wrist for instant access to important information. This innovative solution leverages many of Apple Watch's advanced features-a bright high-resolution display, durability, water resistance, cellular connectivity and a powerful platform for businesses to build custom apps-and the new WSL Surfer app will enable surfers competing at the highest levels to get the information they need in the water.
