Understanding strokes gained and how to unlock it

Strokes Gained is an advanced statistic:

What is Strokes Gained? Strokes Gained compares your performance to a baseline (tour average or handicap level) to show where you gain or lose strokes in different areas:

• •Off the Tee: Driving performance
• •Approach: Iron play and approach shots
• •Around the Green: Chipping and pitching
• •Putting: Performance on the greens

Example: If the tour average is 1.5 putts from 10 feet and you average 1.3, you "gained" 0.2 strokes with putting.
