  • Title: Comprehensive analysis of golf performance on the PGA Tour: 1990-2004.
    Author: Wiseman F, Chatterjee S.
    Journal: Percept Mot Skills; 2006 Feb; 102(1):109-17. PubMed ID: 16671607.
    Abstract:
    Researchers have investigated the relationship between different shot-making measures and performance on the PGA Tour. Prior studies have typically focused on a short period of time or used a restricted sample so long-term trends were not discernible. To remedy this situation, the present study looked at the longitudinal performance of professional golfers from 1990-2004. The findings indicated a remarkable stability in terms of the relative importance of Greens In Regulation and Putting Average in explaining the variability in Scoring Average. The findings also indicated a declining importance of driving in recent years due, in part, to a strengthening of the negative relationship between Driving Distance and Driving Accuracy.
