  • Southern Golf Association ….. News January, 2012
    Southern Golf ASSociAtion ….. neWS January, 2012 SGA StArtS 111 th YeAr ; Southern Am At LittLe rock ’S chenAL countrY cLub BIRMINGHAM, AL -- The storied Southern Golf Association enters its 111th year, with its premier event, the 106th Southern Amateur Championship, slated for play July 18-21 at chenal country club in Little Rock, AR. As has become the norm, the field will include many amateurs ranked among the top players in the U.S. and the world. The Southern Am, once the purview of well-heeled Southerners, has evolved into a national and international competition consistently judged among the top eight amateur events in the world. Ten years ago, the Southern Am field, previously restricted to entrants from SGA-member Southern Club and collegiate players within the traditional 14 southern states, was opened to worldwide entries. The 2011 Southern Am at Innisbrook Resort in Florida reflected that broad participation with players from 33 states and 9 foreign countries. As many as 700 entries are now received each year for the Southern Am , the field pared down to 168 through exemptions for the most accomplished players and a series of 20 local qualifiers scattered throughout the South and a few other states. A “national” qualifier is held at the tournament site on the Monday of tournament week to give appli - cants an extra shot at a berth in the field. While other amateur events sought to attract players with lavish gifts and perks from corporate sponsors, the SGA directors voted to continue its practice of simply putting on a first-class tournament in the true spirit of amateurism – stroke play with roving rules officials.

And in his Don Quixote-like impossible dream, King defeats Cren- shaw and walks away with 100 grand and a glimmering glass trophy after sinking a 30-foot putt on the final hole of the match. Welcome . not to King's golf fan- tasies ... but to the People vs. The Pros, America's "ultimate pro-am champi- onship," as it is billed. But in the third-annual tournament, scheduled for Barton Creek Resort Sept. 8-12, King has a chance to live out his dreams. The 50-year-old superintendent of The Orchards Golf Club in Washington, Mich., is one of 20 superintendents and 288 amateur golfers who qualified for the event. "Isn't that amazing?" King says of his golden "Being a presenting sponsor at the national tournament provides BASF a national platform to recognize the pro- fessional dedication of golf course superintendents," saysToni Bucci, busi- ness manager for BASF Professional Turf and Ornamentals. "Its our way of saluting the crucial work that super- intendents around the country are doing to provide quality turf for their home courses and especially for the golfers who play on them." Growing up, King watched Crenshaw, one of the 1980s and 1990s best golfers, score a hoard of PGA Tour victories, including two Masters titles.

  • PGA Tour Scores As a Gaussian Random Variable
    PGA Tour Scores as a Gaussian Random Variable Robert D. Grober Departments of Applied Physics and Physics Yale University, New Haven, CT 06520 Abstract In this paper it is demonstrated that the scoring at each PGA Tour stroke play event can be reasonably modeled as a Gaussian random variable. All 46 stroke play events in the 2007 season are analyzed. The distributions of scores are favorably compared with Gaussian distributions using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. This observation suggests performance tracking on the PGA tour should be done in terms of the z-score, calculated by subtracting the mean from the raw score and dividing by the standard deviation. This methodology measures performance relative to the field of competitors, independent of the venue, and in terms of a statistic that has quantitative meaning. Several examples of the use of this scoring methodology are provided, including a calculation of the probability that Tiger Woods will break Byron Nelson’s record of eleven consecutive PGA Tour victories. Statistical analysis is now a ubiquitous aspect of most professional sports [1]. Perhaps the best example of this is professional baseball, where nearly every aspect of the game is framed in terms of statistical analysis [2]. Professional golf is also a sport that focuses intensely on statistics, as the PGA Tour web site (www.pgagtour.com) maintains statistics on many aspects of the performance of individual players. The goal of this paper is to demonstrate that the 18-hole scores reported on the PGA tour are reasonably described in terms of Gaussian statistics. The scores generated by the field of competitors at each venue is characterized in terms of a mean, μ , and variance, σ 2 , and the histogram of scores at each venue is accurately described by the associated Gaussian probability distribution function.
