DG Rankings
The Data Golf Rankings are a ranking of the best golfers in the world according to our model. They are determined by averaging the field-strength-adjusted scores of each golfer across professional and amateur tournaments, with more recent rounds receiving more weight. More info.
Prior to 2010, the rankings are only based on PGA Tour, European Tour, and Korn Ferry Tour results. For this reason only the top 100 players are displayed.

What is the DG Index?
The DG Index is an estimate of a player's current skill level. It is calculated as a weighted average of a player's field-strength-adjusted scores, with recent rounds receiving more weight, plus some adjustments for the overall recency of a player's data. It can be interpreted as our expectation for a golfer's next performance, in strokes gained per round, relative to our baseline player.
