The 2013-14 PGA TOUR season is complete, meaning the numbers from all 45 official events and 900 holes have been tallied. Here's a look at some of the more interesting numbers from the season. The following scoring and putting statistics only take into account stroke-play events, meaning the WGC-Match Play Championship and the Barracuda Championship are excluded. All other statistics only factor in the golf courses where ShotLink is available.
