Data

PGA Tour player stats data

Driving distance and accuracy, greens in regulation, putts per green and sand saves per player per PGA Tour tournament, with scoring stats counted from every hole.

BirdieAPI serves ESPN's stat line for each player in each PGA Tour tournament: driving distance, driving accuracy, greens in regulation, putts per green in regulation and sand saves. Alongside it, scoring stats are counted from every hole played: birdies and bogeys per round and par 3, 4 and 5 scoring averages.

get_player_stats returns a player's season; get_leaders ranks the field in any of them with a minimum sample. The table below shows which seasons carry the stat lines.

Questions

Is this strokes gained?

No. ESPN does not publish strokes gained by category. BirdieAPI's strokes versus the field is total strokes against the field, computed from scores.

Which seasons have the stat lines?

PGA Tour tournaments in the seasons the table lists. Hole-based scoring stats go back to 2001.

How do I rank players on one of them?

get_leaders takes the stat and a season, with a minimum number of tournaments so one good week does not top the list.

What it will not do

  • PGA Tour only.
  • Tournament averages, not per round or per shot.
  • Lines for players who made the cut; ESPN keeps none for the rest of the field.
