What statistics matter most at Sony Open in Hawaii?
Putting carried the most weight at Waialae Country Club relative to the tour: 35% of the spread in total strokes gained here vs 31% tour-wide (5 editions, 712 golfer-weeks, Jan 9, 2012 to Jan 8, 2020), a small difference, so read it as a lean.
Putting explains 35% of the spread in total strokes gained here vs 31% tour-wide, a small difference (5 editions, 712 golfer-weeks).
Around the green matters less than usual: 11% here vs 15% tour-wide.
No category clearly differs from the tour here, so treat the order as a lean, not a rule.

|---|---|---|---|
| Putting | 35% | 31% | No |
| Approach | 35% | 35% | No |
