We are two weeks removed from the PGA Championship at Oak Hill and there are two weeks to go before the game’s best players descend upon Los Angeles Country Club and battle it out for the season’s third major championship, the 2023 U.S. Open.
At this point, every player’s game needs to be sharp as the championship season continues, and while there is no substitute for making putts, avoiding big numbers and creating scoring chances comes from being effective off the tee and from the fairway. The players listed below – the golfers who are currently ranked in the top 10 in Strokes Gained: Tee to Green – are the best in the business when it comes to ballstriking, and many of their names have been on the first page of leaderboards all season.
As a reminder, strokes gained measures how much of an advantage or disadvantage a player typically has over the field, measured in strokes. A positive number means the player has an edge over the average golfer, while a negative number means the golfer is giving away shots. Strokes Gained: Tee to Green includes all non-putts, so it includes a player’s shots off the tee, from the fairway and shots hit from around the green.
See who is on the list and what drivers, fairway woods, hybrid and irons they are using.
