What statistics matter most at CareerBuilder Challenge?
La Quinta Country Club has too little strokes-gained history to rank the categories (0 editions with strokes gained). Tour-wide, approach accounts for the largest share of the spread in total strokes gained (36%, 11,117 golfer-weeks, Jan 18, 2010 to Jan 17, 2018).
Strokes gained has not been published for this course (3 stored editions without it), so the course-specific order is uncertain. The weights shown are tour-wide: Approach explains 36% of the spread in total strokes gained across 11,117 golfer-weeks.
Share of the spread: how much of the difference between golfers in total strokes gained each category accounted for in earlier editions on this course, against the tour as a whole; the four categories add to 100%. Stored PGA Tour strokes gained through January 17, 2018. Wind and weather data are not available for golf courses.
What mattered here describes past editions; it is not a validated predictor.
