ABSTRACT
For money earned during 1987 only three variables explained significant variance. Scoring average explained 51% of the variance associated with money earnings, whereas birdies divided by greens in regulation and fairways hit explained the other 7%. Overall these three variables accounted for 58% of the variance associated with money earned. Thus, 42% of variance explaining why these professional golfers earned the money they did was not accounted for by these playing statistics.
