PGA Stats Legend

Putts Gained/Rd – Based on the distance from the hole, the number of putts taken is compared against a baseline number to determine strokes gained or lost on that hole. The totals of these for the round are then subtracted from the field average to get the strokes gained or lost for that round.

Fairway % – The percentage of shots that land on the fairway when it is possible to do so.

Avg Driving Dist – The average distance (in yards) that the golfer drives the ball off the tee.

Scramble % – The percentage of the time that a golfer does not hit the green, but still makes par or better.

Green % – The percentage of holes that the golfer hits the green. Note that “hitting the green” is defined as any part of the ball touching the green in Par – 2 strokes. For example, on a Par 5 hole, a golfer is considered to have hit the green if his ball lands on the green by his third stroke.

Vegas Rk – The golfer’s ranking based on Vegas odds.

Salary Rk – The golfer’s ranking based on their player salary.

Diff – The difference between the golfer’s salary rank and Vegas rank. The higher the number in this column, the better, as it means that Vegas likes that golfer, but he is cheap.
