'Field Rankings' Page Enhanced on Golf Predictor

Enhanced Field Rank Page with new Metrics
I am happy to announce the addition of further metrics to the field rankings page added recently to Golf Predictor. In addition to those announced on the launch of the page, the following nine metrics are now also available:
  1. Season Round 1 Average
  2. Season Round 2 Average
  3. Season Round 3 Average
  4. Season Final Round Average
  5. Same Course Round 1 Average
  6. Same Tournament Round 1 Average
  7. Last 12 Similar Events Round 1 Average
  8. Cut Streak
  9. Winless Streak
The new metrics are shown in the screenshot above, which shows the season round one average ahead of the 2012 Greenbrier Classic. These nine new metrics give a grand total of fifteen available from the metrics drop down list. Like the previously available metrics, these new ones have two charts:
  1. The overall GP ranking chart, which is the same for all metrics. 
  2. The chart showing the best in the field for the relevant metric (e.g. best season round one average)
Again, these charts were already available on other pages on Golf Predictor. However, for this new page they appear conveniently in modal pop-up dialogue boxes over the underlying page. Some notes on this new additions:
  1. You may have to reload your current Golf Predictor page to see these new metrics in the dropdown list.
  2. Golf Predictor results go back to the start of the 2003 season. Keep this in mind if you are perusing old tournaments on this page.
  3. For each of the round metrics, the average and number of rounds played are displayed. For streaks, the streak length and average points are shown.
  4. Like before, the world ranking is displayed in the pop-up box when you hover over a golfer name.
  5. Players with no relevant statistics are omitted from the results. 
  6. The results for the winless streak may show players who have played a small number of tournaments. However, the accompanying chart only shows streaks for previous winners (since 2003).
Like the existing metrics, non-subscribers can only see the statistics for the golfers ranked 11-25* in each category and just the round two average chart. Therefore, sign up today and reap the full benefits of Golf Predictor, the premium professional golf statistics site.


*Ties may change the exact number and ranks of golfers shown to non-subscribers.
