A Bit More About Me

I began my athletic journey by joining the French Golf Federation's elite training programs at the age of 15, where I developed my skills until I turned 18. I then made the decision to study in the United States for four and a half years, attending an American university where I earned a degree in architecture. During that time, I also played golf at a high level, proudly representing my college across the country.

This experience allowed me to discover a new culture and adopt a different perspective on sports, one that I now see as a powerful vehicle for connection, sharing, and values. Inspired by this transformation, I made the decision to turn professional, fully committed to giving myself every chance to succeed and achieve my dreams.

After using the HUAWEI WATCH GT 5 Pro in 2024, I chose to continue my journey with the HUAWEI WATCH FIT 4 Pro. This watch has become an essential asset in my training, both on the course and on the practice range. Its built-in health monitoring tools help me keep an eye on my overall well-being, which is vital for any athlete in full preparation mode.

“This time, HUAWEI goes a step further by introducing golf-specific tools, without compromising the core strengths that define its wearables: Precise health tracking and performance monitoring.”

Design and Wearability

One of the first things I noticed about the HUAWEI WATCH FIT 4 Pro is how incredibly lightweight it is. At just 26 grams without the strap, I sometimes forget I’m even wearing it. Yet it feels solid and premium, with a vibrant AMOLED display that remains crystal clear even under strong sunlight. Which is essential during outdoor training sessions, and since golf can only be played outdoors, that basically means every single one!

The rectangular design gives it a sleek, minimalist look. I can wear it with my golf attire, travel clothes, fitness trainings and even with casual evening outfit. It’s classy, sporty, and gives my outfit a clean finish.

Golf Mode: A Subtle But Reliable Mini Coach

The Golf mode is where this watch truly connects with my profession. It provides core motion tracking, GPS data, and feedback on swing rhythm and movement efficiency. For my daily sessions, this balance of simplicity and relevance is perfect. On the range, I set a target backswing–downswing and use the rhythm cue to keep my transition smooth; when the watch shows I’m rushing the downswing, I pause, reset, and the next sequence usually settles back into rhythm.

It allows me to stay focused on feel and flow without being distracted by overanalysis. And when I want a review of my physical performance, not just technique, the HUAWEI WATCH FIT 4 Pro delivers insightful metrics on energy expenditure and body motion.

What I value most is how non-intrusive the experience is. I activate Golf mode, tighten the strap, and then forget about the watch. Since I usually know the courses I play, I don’t use the course map, which means I don’t have to think about the watch during the round. Even if I rarely use it, the course map is great for golfers on unfamiliar courses or when traveling: it provides quick hole previews with carry/lay-up distances to hazards, which speeds decisions. Mid- and high-handicappers can use front/middle/back green depths to choose the right club and plan lay-ups to their best wedge yardage, and on blind shots or doglegs it gives a reliable aiming reference. After the round, reviewing the map against actual shots helps tighten course management for next time.

The Data That Mattered Most to Me & How I Use It:

1. Swing rhythm (backswing: downswing ratio). I aim for a ~3:1 window (roughly 2.8–3.2). If I slip lower, I know I’m rushing the transition and reset my drill.

2. Tempo consistency (per-set variability). Stable tempo usually tracks with strike quality; rising variability is my cue to shorten the block or switch tasks.

“With Golf mode, the heart-rate timeline, and post-session summaries, the HUAWEI WATCH FIT 4 Pro gives me the key data I need to decide whether to push, taper, or switch focus the next day.”

Fitness and Strength Training Functions

Golf isn’t just about what happens on the course. A major part of my routine involves strength and conditioning. The HUAWEI WATCH FIT 4 Pro includes dedicated workout modes for weight training, cardio, and stretching. These are surprisingly well thought out.

The watch gently guides me through circuits or cooldowns. There are also video-style animated guides for stretches, a small but extremely useful feature, especially on travel days or after long flights.

It doesn’t replace a personal trainer, but it helps me stay disciplined and focused even when I’m training solo.

Altitude Barometer and Outdoor Utility

When training in changing outdoor environments, whether in the mountains or by the coast, I’ve come to appreciate the built-in barometer. It gives me the altitude I’m at the moment and this can change the ball flight. It is a super important feature that can make me gain or lose shots, or even win or lose a tournament. This is very important for me to know my distances and since I don’t train in the mountains every day, I’m not use to this change.

Heart Rate Monitoring and Emotional Wellbeing

One of the most consistently useful features is the real-time heart rate monitor. Whether I’m on the range, lifting weights, or simply in transit between events, it helps me stay connected to my body. It’s good to know how my body reacts to certain situations and not push myself to work out past my physical limit.

There’s also an Emotional Wellbeing app on both the HUAWEI Health App and the watch, which tracks your heart rate variability and other bio-signals to estimate your emotional balance. It’s not just data, it’s awareness. I’ve learned to spot moments of mental fatigue or elevated stress and take small steps to reset.

Emotional wellbeing is often overlooked in performance tracking, but it makes a big difference. It helps me detect when my stress levels are rising, and I can respond in time by using the guided breathing exercises on the watch. This feature has proven especially useful during tournaments, particularly at the start and toward the end when stress tends to peak. Being able to manage my emotions more effectively has helped me reduce anxiety and ultimately improve my performance on the course, which is essential during any tournament when I have to stay calm and collected for a long period of time.

Battery Life and Travel Convenience

One of my biggest frustrations with past smartwatches was their battery life. Not here. The HUAWEI WATCH FIT 4 Pro lasts easily 10 days with moderate use, and about 7 days even when I train heavily with GPS on. On my last tournament trips (practice rounds, competition rounds plus daily recovery),I went out and came back on a single charge.

It’s stress-free to know that if I forget my charger I can still use my watch during my tournament and do everything I can with it. Since I always sleep with it on my wrist to track my sleep, it’s important that I don’t need to have to charge it at night. The fast-charging feature is another huge win. Ten minutes gives me enough for the whole day. I can easily charge it when I take a shower and use it right after again. As someone constantly on the move, that kind of reliability is priceless.

Conclusion

A Balanced, Mindful Companion

The HUAWEI WATCH FIT 4 Pro isn’t the flashiest or most data-heavy golf watch out there. But that’s exactly why I love it. It does the important things well, and it does them in a way that fits smoothly into my lifestyle. It helps me track what matters, from swing tempo to sleep cycles, from workout reps to emotional states. It is a constant companion, one that quietly supports me through every moment of training, travel, and play.

For anyone who plays golf seriously, but also values balance, wellness, and efficiency, the HUAWEI WATCH FIT 4 Pro is what you need. It’s smart, elegant, and insightful. Just like the best golf swing, it’s about rhythm, not force. And that’s exactly why it works for me.
