  • Title: Examination of hole-to-hole streakiness on the PGA Tour.
    Author: Clark RD.
    Journal: Percept Mot Skills; 2005 Jun; 100(3 Pt 1):806-14. PubMed ID: 16060447.
    Abstract:
    A study investigated streakiness among professional golfers. Hole-to-hole scores within 747 tournaments from a randomly chosen group of 35 players on the 1997 PGA Tour were analyzed. Contingency analyses gave no evidence for streakiness. Players were just as likely to score par or better following an above par hole as to make a par or better following a par or better hole. These results are consistent with those found for individual players in baseball and basketball.
