Inventor of the Strokes Gained Statistic. Columbia Business school professor and author of Every Shot Counts. Mark Broadie has changed the way we see golf performance. His paradigm-shifting approach uses statistics and golf analytics in a way that has transformed the game. Broadie's 'strokes gained' statistic received enough high praise to be adopted by the PGA Tour in 2011, something that hadn't been done for decades. Week number NINE of the 51 Strokes podcast is coming in hot with the "Moneyball of golf." Just wanted to give a huge shoutout to everyone who bought merch over the weekend. 600 putts were made for everyone who bought on Black Friday.
