I wrote a blog in October 2009 reviewing golfers with the top 10 earnings. I was trying to see if there was a relationship between driving or putting contributing to their winnings. The results were split. Review results.
This morning I was curious of how it would look if I reviewed the current golfers with the top 2010 earnings. The results have not changed much. 60% of the golfers rank better in putting.
Check out the results below. Interesting stuff.

I am glad to see Ernie on top. He has always been known more for his driving than putting
