Alright, so I recently had this idea to check out how many pars were made in the 2022 Masters. I’m no golf expert, but I find these big tournaments pretty interesting, and I thought it would be cool to dig into some of the numbers.
I started by searching online, just a simple search to see if anyone had already done the work for me. I stumbled upon a few articles and some official-looking statistics pages. I saw one article mentioned “80 Total Pars”, but that didn’t seem right, considering the number of players and rounds.
Then I found another piece saying something like “players combined to make an impressive total of 1”. Again, I doubted it. 1 par? Impossible.
I even found some data from 2023 saying there were 3. Just 3 pars in 2023 Masters? It’s a joke, right?
I also came across something about “Historical leaderboards, strokes gained” and the “toughest hole No. 11”. This got me a little off track, but it was interesting to see that hole No. 11 played a scoring average of 4.735. That’s a bit of a struggle for a par-4.
Next, I looked at some stats from the PGA TOUR. They had a breakdown for the 2022 Masters Tournament, but it was more about course stats than total pars.
Here’s where it got a bit tricky. I found a source that calculated a “total of 5,004 possible pars” based on the number of players in each round. They also mentioned last year’s average score was 73.52. Okay, that’s a lot of potential pars, but it didn’t tell me the actual number made.
Finally, I hit the jackpot. One website stated, “There were 3,029 pars in last year’s Masters Tournament.” Bingo! That sounded much more believable. It also mentioned something about the cut-off rules, but honestly, that part was a bit over my head. I was just happy to find the number I was looking for. 3029! What a number!
So, after all that digging, I found out that there were 3,029 pars made in the 2022 Masters. It was a bit of a roundabout journey, but it was fun to piece it all together. I guess sometimes you just gotta do the legwork to get the answers you’re looking for, even if it’s just a random stat from a golf tournament.
- I searched around online.
- I found some wrong numbers, but they got me going.
- I dug through some detailed stats, which was a bit confusing but still fun.
- I figured out there were 3,029 pars made in the end.
It was quite the adventure for a simple number, wasn’t it?
