What statistics matter most at Bank of Utah Championship?

Black Desert Resort has too little strokes-gained history to rank the categories (2 editions with strokes gained). Tour-wide, approach accounts for the largest share of the spread in total strokes gained (35%, 30,678 golfer-weeks, Oct 1, 2018 to Sep 30, 2026).

Only 2 editions, 253 golfer-weeks with strokes gained here, so the course-specific order is uncertain. The weights shown are tour-wide: Approach explains 35% of the spread in total strokes gained across 30,678 golfer-weeks.

Category	Share of the spread here	Tour-wide	Stands out
Approach	33%	35%	No
Putting	26%	31%	No
Off the tee	27%	19%	No
Around the green	14%	15%	No

Par 3s (4 on the card) played 0.04 under par per hole here vs 0.08 over tour-wide (2 editions).

Par 4s (11 on the card) played 0.01 under par per hole here vs even tour-wide (2 editions).

Par 5s (3 on the card) played 0.41 under par per hole here vs 0.45 under tour-wide (2 editions).

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 September 30, 2026. Wind and weather data are not available for golf courses.

What mattered here describes past editions; it is not a validated predictor.
