One More Look At Key Stats From 2019

In the October Golfweek (not online), I looked at ten of the more intriguing stats from the PGA Tour season with help from ShotLink. One of those eye openers appeared in Golf Channel’s five “mind-blowing” stats from 2019, embedded below.

Since it’s natural this time of year to want to reflect on the season, I think you’ll enjoy Justin Ray’s 15th club rundown of best stats from 2019. He covers a wide range from the mens and women’s games

A couple that I enjoyed:

– Iron play proved to be pivotal again at Augusta National: Woods led the Masters field in strokes gained approach on his way to victory. Over the last five years, players to lead the Masters in that statistic have finished 1st, 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 1st.

It’s never too early to start factoring that into your 2020 Masters prognosticating.

And this was sensational for Scottish golf…I think. Then again, if it’s been this long maybe not…

– Before Robert Macintyre won the European Tour Rookie of the Year title, he laid claim to some remarkable Scottish golf history at The Open Championship. Bob finished tied for sixth at Royal Portrush, becoming the first Scottish player to finish top-ten in his Open debut since Andrew Kirkaldy… in 1879!

And Golf Channel’s for those more video inclined.
