It’s Trivia Tuesday! I will give one person who correctly answers the question below a free MONTH to my dubclub!

Prior to 2024, the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am was played across 3 courses. Which of those 3 courses is no longer used for the tournament?

A few nuggets from my WM Phoenix Open preview, which was available to all my DubClub subscribers

My golfer watch list ended up picking the winner, 3 top 5 finishers, a top 10, and 10/11 made the cut

I also correctly picked a Scottie top 5 finish and Gotterup win (ignore the bit about Cam Young)

Matsuyama gave up the lead on 18 and lost the playoff because of two bad drives. His poor off the tee play finally came back to bite him

Hideki Matsuyama is laughing in the face of the course history right now

Since SG data started being collected at the WM Phoenix Open 11 years ago, no one has ever won it while losing strokes off the tee

According to DataGolf.com, Matsuyama has lost 3.45 strokes off the tee this entire tournament

One suggestion for anyone analyzing golf that I wish I had learned sooner:

Shots Gained categories and stats like GIR, drive distance, and drive accuracy are important, but your analysis will always be lacking until you start thinking about how they affect eachother

Here’s what jumps out to me:

- Another week where the top finishers will likely have a spike week with their putter
- elite approach separates the best from the rest
- top 20 finishers had a solid off the tee performance
- drive distance helps finish in the top 20, but doesn’t help win.
(2/2)

Average stats for top 20 finishers the last 3 years at WM Phoenix Open split into several buckets based on finishing position.

Every week, I look at the average stats per finishing position of the last three years to help identify what stat categories are important for this week’s tournament.

Below is the table for the WM Phoenix Open:

Harris English's 4th round last year at the Farmers Insurance Open was +1. Name either of the golfers who won a tournament but had a worse score (more over par) in the 4th round in the '25 PGA season

I have a feeling we are going to see someone shoot a 59 today at the American Express

Using my regression comparison tool, Jason Day and Harry Hall jump out as two massive regression candidates.

Harry Hall hit 2.41 SG below expected, and Jason Day had an incredible round, gaining 7.22 more strokes than expected.

Harry Hall and Hideki Matsuyama are two golfers likely going in different directions today.

Based on my regression chart, Hall overperformed by nearly 3 strokes yesterday, while Matsuyama underperformed by 1.05 strokes.

Below are the average stats for top 3 finishers at the Sony Open for the last three years:

Top 3 finishers averaged 1.10 SG App. JJ Spaun has one of the best approaches of golfers playing at the Sony, and had a T3 finish here last year. I really like him for a top 20 finish at -120 on DraftKings

I really hope Rahm comes back. He makes the tour better. I don’t think Cam Smith will make the tour better so I don’t want him to come back, plus LIV playing in Australia is probably a big plus for him.

I’ve always just used DataGolf for DFS projected ownership.

I think Gehman is best for course preview data, but I think betsperts is far superior when it comes to granular SG data.

I have a lot of experience with both so maybe I can help. What type of data are you looking for and what do you use it for?

The last time Scottie Scheffler did not lead the PGA in average Shots Gained: Approach per round was 2022. Who was the leader that year? (Min 30 SG rounds in PGA or Major Events)
