3Jack Updated PGA Tour Stat Rankings 8.15.11

Sunday’s winner of the PGA Championship, Keegan Bradley



Here are the stats of the top 5 players (excluding Anders Hansen who does not have stats since he doesn't have enough rounds to qualify).

Player………….........Drive……Putt…..SG…......DZ
Keegan Bradley……...17……...85…...163….....163
Jason Dufner ………..36……...115…...96…......63
David Toms………….....13……...18…...102…......1
Scott Verplank …….80……...104…...46….....109
Robert Karlsson ….150……..98…....20….....58

It basically came down to driving and Danger Zone play with there being a mixed bag of both. Guys like Keegan Bradley drive the ball great, but are poor from the Danger Zone and somebody like Karlsson is a poor driver of the ball but very good from the Danger Zone. Overall, Verplank was most telling as he improved in both categories over the week, but improved more in driving than Danger Zone play...so Atlanta Athletic Club was very much about driving the golf ball.

Here are my picks for this week's Wyndham Championship:

Brandt Jobe
David Toms
Webb Simpson
John Rollins
Brandt Snedeker
