No Shotlink data available from this tournament
We did our best to get as many stats out of the event as possible but many are missing (e.g. the strokes-gained categories).
A note of caution — since we could not calculate the stats ourselves, a few now have slightly different definitions:
Driving distance is only measured using two drives per round (versus all drives).
Driving accuracy does not count intermediate (first cut) rough as a fairway.
Greens in regulation (GIR) percentage does not count fringes as a hit green.

STAT INFORMATION UPDATED
STROKES-GAINED STATS UPDATED
All strokes-gained statistics are as defined on the PGATOUR website.
For majors, we calculate our own version of strokes-gained using the shot-level data. You can read more about our method for calculating strokes-gained in the FAQs.
FAIRWAY PROXIMITY
Proximity to the pin of all shots hit from the fairway (par 3s tee shots included) or intermediate rough from a distance greater than 50 yards and less than 250 yards.
Shots deemed to be layups or punch outs are excluded.
Hover over cells to view the number of shots hit and the average yardage to pin.
ROUGH PROXIMITY
Proximity to the pin of all shots hit from locations other than fairway or intermediate rough from a distance greater than 50 yards and less than 225 yards.
Shots deemed to be layups or punch outs are excluded.
Hover over cells to view the number of shots hit and the average yardage to pin.
DRIVING DISTANCE
Average distance of all drives on Par 4s and 5s. Reloads are included.
Hover over cells to view the number of drives hit.
DRIVING ACCURACY UPDATED
Percentage of fairways (fringe, and greens also count as fairway) hit on Par 4s and 5s. Reloads not included. Intermediate rough no longer counted (we used to count them).
GIR UPDATED
Percentage of greens hit in regulation. Fringes are no longer counted (we used to count them).
SCRAMBLING
Percentage of around-the-green shots from 50 yards and in that were holed out in 2 strokes or less.
Shots deemed to be chip outs are excluded.
Hover over cells to view the number of attempts (more than 1 attempt per hole is possible).
GREAT SHOTS NEW
Number of "great" shots in the round, where a great shot is defined as the top 5% of strokes-gained values in each category.
The strokes-gained cutoffs by category are OTT: 0.3, APP: 0.55, ARG: 0.55, PUTT: 0.65. SG values are adjusted at the hole-level.
Hover over cells to view the category breakdown of great shots.
POOR SHOTS NEW
Number of "bad" shots in the round, where a bad shot is defined as the bottom 5% of strokes-gained values in each category.
The strokes-gained cutoffs by category are OTT: -0.4, APP: -0.5, ARG: -0.6, PUTT: -0.5. SG values are adjusted at the hole-level.
Hover over cells to view the category breakdown of poor shots.
Shotlink data from round 1 at the Stadium Course was incomplete and never patched up by the Tour.
Strokes-gained total is accurate in the table below, but no other stats are shown for round 1.
