PGA Golf Stats Legend
- DDist – Average Drive Distance
- CutM – Cuts Made
- CutMi – Cuts Missed
- Cut% – Percentage of Cuts Made
- DAcc – Drive Accuracy Percentage. This is the percentage of times that the tee shot ends up in the fairway.
- GIR – Greens In Regulation. The percentage of the times that any part of the ball is resting on the putting green within Par minus 2 shots. For example, on a Par 5 hole, if the ball is on the green by the third shot, it is considered to have hit the green in regulation.
- PTH – Proximity to Hole Average. The average distance to the hole (measured in feet) on the approach shot. The approach shot is a shot that does not originate around or on the green, but ends on the green, around the green, or in the hole. Note: The term “around the green” refers to the ball being within 30 yards of the putting green.
- Scram – Scrambling Percentage. The percentage of the time that a player misses the green in regulation, but still makes par or better.
- SGP 1 – Strokes Gained Putting. The number of putts a player takes from a specific distance is measured against a statistical baseline to determine the player’s strokes gained or lost on a hole. The sum of the values for all holes played in a round minus the field average strokes gained/lost for the round is the player’s Strokes gained/lost for that round. The sum of strokes gained for each round are divided by total rounds played.
- Top10 – Number of Top 10 finishes.
- Top25 – Number of Top 25 finishes.
- WD – Number of times Withdrawn.
- Rank – World Ranking
1 – The Strokes Gained – Putting concept is a by-product of the PGA TOUR’s ShotLink Academic program, which encourages members of the academic community to perform research against the wealth of ShotLink statistical data. Professor Mark Broadie from Columbia Business School developed the early concept which was later refined by the TOUR (2564)
