Very cool interactive page lets you see strokes gained data by player/year/tournament

[nevets88]

There are two parts, player and tournament. You don't have go Googling for data, it's all here in one page, assuming it's accurate. Some abbreviations I never knew - SG: OTT - Off the tee. SG:ARG - Around the greens. If you are a statshead, I've probably ratholed you. Sorry in advance.

Cool! I've installed Tableau, and messed with it a little bit. I'd like to know where he gets the raw data.

I think he's gotten an academic access to ShotLink.

His personal webpage / blog also has some good stuff: http://mattcourchene.com/

Was interesting to me to see that Jordan had a cold putter at the SONY, while his approaches led the field, which was his weak spot last year.

Below is a timeline for the final round of the CareerBuilder Challenge. This gives fans the unique ability to look back on an event and see how it played out in real time (as opposed to hole by hole comparisons).

The user can hover over the legend circles to get clarification on where that player lies in the figure, and/or can hover over a line to reveal the corresponding player from the legend…Enjoy!

 Also, I like the "Dec 25, 2016 - The visualization interactively reveals the evolution of driving distance on the PGA Tour since 1983. The height of each bar represents the percentage of players falling within the corresponding bin. Click anywhere on the histogram to transition into the next year."
It is further down on the web page.

That is very cool. If they could get that going during a tournament, you can get in one eyeful, without seeing numbers, who's gaining/losing momentum much more easily in a shorter amount of time.
