Data Golf is Taking Analytics to a Whole New Level for Gamblers

Golf.com of all places has an excellent feature on new tools that will help those looking to place bets on golf tournaments.

datagolf.ca, started by brothers Matt (28) and Will (26) Courchene, features a wealth of golf data number crunching that should be especially helpful to gamblers. 

You can follow them at @datagolf

From Golf.com:

The most popular attraction on DataGolf.ca of late is the live model of every PGA Tour and PGA European Tour event. Every five minutes, the model updates the probabilities of every player’s chances in the tournament — an unparalleled perspective on how the tournament is unfolding. The site will also mesmerize you with spectacular data visualization, such as comparing the all-time earnings leaders on the PGA Tour from 1990 through 2018, and a course history tool so you can sort out your horses for courses.

“We thought that golf could use different types of media content other than just round recaps,” says Will. “Obviously, Mark Broadie had done a lot of stuff, but we didn’t see it being used that much, and thought there was a hole in the space. We started an analytics blog, and people found it kind of interesting, I guess.”
