Please direct all correspondence to Richard Rendleman. The Importance of Skill and Luck on the PGA Tour Abstract Using a variety of methods, we study the relative contributions of skill and luck in determining the scores of professional golfers who play on the PGA Tour in the U.S. Fixed effects modeling establishes the presence of important changes in skill over the multi-year sample used in our empirical analysis. We apply a set of tests in the literature for hot hands, and employ a markov- switching model on scores of individual golfers. The results from standard tests reveal modest evidence of hot hands, while the markov-switching approach delivers clear evidence of hot hands among some of the best players on the Tour. 1 The Importance of Skill and Luck on the PGA Tour 1. Introduction Like all sports, outcomes in golf involve elements of both skill and luck.
