What statistics matter most at Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by Mastercard?

Off the tee carried the most weight at Arnold Palmer's Bay Hill Club & Lodge relative to the tour: 19% of the spread in total strokes gained here vs 19% tour-wide (4 editions, 479 golfer-weeks, Mar 7, 2011 to Mar 6, 2019), a small difference, so read it as a lean.

Off the tee explains 19% of the spread in total strokes gained here vs 19% tour-wide, a small difference (4 editions, 479 golfer-weeks).

Putting explains 32% of the spread in total strokes gained here vs 31% tour-wide, a small difference (4 editions, 479 golfer-weeks).

Around the green matters less than usual: 13% here vs 15% tour-wide.

No category clearly differs from the tour here, so treat the order as a lean, not a rule.
