So, I’ve been digging into the numbers from the 2024 Masters, and let me tell you, it’s been a wild ride trying to figure out this whole “average pars” thing. I mean, who knew golf stats could be so interesting, right?
First off, I started by looking at the last year’s numbers. They had 3,029 pars in 2023, which is a boatload of pars if you ask me. Then I dug into this year’s stats. They finished the tournament on April 14th, and Scottie Scheffler took the win. Congrats to him! But back to the pars—they made a whopping 3,202 pars this year! That’s even more than last year.
To get a handle on it, I decided to break it down by rounds. I looked at the final round of the previous year, where they had 531 pars. That comes out to an average of about 10.39 pars per player for that round. I figured if they kept up that pace this year, we’d see similar numbers. And guess what? They did! The average number of pars per player per round this year was hovering around 10 to 12. It’s like these guys are machines or something.
- Started by looking at 2023 numbers: 3,029 pars.
- Dug into 2024 stats: 3,202 pars.
- Broke it down by rounds and calculated averages.
- Figured the average pars per player per round: around 10-12.
I also stumbled upon some interesting tidbits while I was at it. For example, Justin Thomas made 40 pars in 2020, and he ended up in the top 10. That’s pretty cool. And get this—they spent $70 million at the Masters shop that week. That’s $10 million a day! Insane, right?
But yeah, it’s been a fun little project trying to make sense of all these numbers. And hey, maybe it’ll give you something to talk about next time you’re on the course. Who knows, you might even impress your buddies with your newfound golf knowledge. I tried to look up a lot of information and compare them to finally get the result.
So many Pars this time!
This year, they made even more pars, totaling 3,202. It’s crazy to think about how consistent these players are. But then again, Augusta National is known for being a tough course, so maybe it’s not that surprising. I also found that the course is 7,545 yards long with a par of 72. I did some quick math, and it seems like they’re making pars on a good chunk of those holes.
