I listen to a lot of baseball, and I'm surprised at the amount of trivial statistical info that passes for newsworthy. This is in that category. This is like saying the baseball MVP usually comes from the 5 players with the best batting average or era. Or the president is usually comes from one of the six highest spending candidates. Or in bowling, the person with the highest score after 9 frames usually wins. Or if you really want to stay in the golfing framework, you could also say the winner is almost always in the last 2 grouping. Or the last 3 grouping. Yes, when most games are 3/4 over, the teams doing the best often win. Statisticians are paid to find obscure facts, and broadcasters need to have something to say for 3 hours, but is it really noteworthy?

In other words, the leaders go out in the last pairing, and the guys farthest back from the lead tee off first. The winner at The Masters has come out of that last pairing in each event since Nick Faldo came from 3rd place (the next-to-last pairing) in 1990 to win. Randy
