Top All-Around Players

On the PGA TOUR, very few players of the 193 now tracked in the stats are BOTH in the top-50 for putts / green hit in regulation (putts/GIR) AND the top-50 for GIRs. As of March 21, 2010, there are only 16 players out of 193 ranked in the top 25% of both lists.

Of the 16 players included in the 50-50 club, all but 1 also rank in the top-50 (top 25%) of the All-Around stats category (driving distance, accuracy, GIR's, putts per GIRs, eagles, birdies, scoring average, and sand saves).

Of the top-10 in the All-Around stats, four are 50-50 Players.

Cheers!
