Strokes gained has not been published for this course (5 stored editions without it), so the course-specific order is uncertain. The weights shown are tour-wide: Approach explains 35% of the spread in total strokes gained across 24,922 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%.
