Five players to watch at the KPMG Women’s PGA at Baltusrol and the numbers behind their success

The Performance Insights relies on caddies to gather information and turn in a special card after each round.

SPRINGFIELD, N.J. — Two years ago, KPMG launched an analytics platform to help narrow the information divide between the men’s and women’s games. The program, similar to what’s offered on the DP World Tour, relies on caddies to gather information and turn in a special card after each round. KPMG pays the caddies a small stipend.

It’s an evolving system that gets more useful over time as data accumulates.

Scorecard numbers can only tell so much of the story, and as the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship kicks off this week at historic Baltusrol for the first time, we take a closer look at the Performance Insights numbers of five players to keep an eye on in New Jersey.
