Fifty tournaments, 43 winners, 14 playoffs, 641 players competing in total, 1.3 million strokes taken, 93,000 kilometres travelled. These are just some of the numbers the PGA Tour compiled to help provide context to the 2020-2021 campaign that wrapped up at the Tour Championship.

It was a season unlike any other, given the additional events played in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

With all the shots counted, we thought it might be interesting to see who finished the season as the leader in a variety of PGA Tour stats. Suffice to say, you’ll see a few names repeated here. They’re the ones who also are in the running for PGA Tour player-of-the-year honours.
