Genworth Stats Pack - Summary Report

Round 4 of the ISPS Handa Wales Open produced 19 sub-par rounds and a field average score of 72.64. Grégory Bourdy emerged as the winner on -8 with Uihlein, Kjeldsen, Luiten and Parry finishing as his closest challengers. We analyse their performances and round up the final Genworth Statistics leaders.

Grégory BOURDY -8

Grégory Bourdy converted one eagle and five birdies against three bogeys on his way to a superb final round 67, winning the tournament by two shots. Looking at his Genworth Statistics for the week, the 31 year old French golfer hit 28/52 fairways and 48/72 greens in regulation, plus he scrambled 15/24 times for par and took just 113 putts in total (including holing great putts at each of his final three holes to secure the victory). The now four time European Tour champion climbs up to 19th position on the Race to Dubai, enjoying his most successful ever year on tour.

Peter UIHLEIN -6

Peter Uihlein converted three birdies against four bogeys on his way to a final round 72, finishing second. Looking at his Genworth Statistics for the week, the 24 year old talent from the United States looked very impressive from tee to green, ranking 1st for Driving Distance and 8th for Greens in Regulation, but we should also note that he accumulated a total of 29 single putts as well. Although Peter may be a little disappointed with second place having started the day with a three shot lead, this result has still produced his biggest cheque to date, pushing him up to 26th on the Race to Dubai.

Søren KJELDSEN -5

Søren Kjeldsen converted six birdies against a single bogey on his way to an exceptional final round 66 (the low round of the day), finishing third. Looking at his Genworth Statistics for the week, the 38 year old Danish golfer ranked high in most categories, including 1st for 1 Putts per Round (with 33 single putts in total) and 1st for Par 3 Scoring (with a 2.75 average) - we should note that Søren made four birdie two’s during today’s final round alone. With this result, the three time European Tour winner climbs up to 61st on the Race to Dubai, now very much in the mix for the approaching Final Series.

Joost LUITEN -3

Joost Luiten converted two birdies against two bogeys on his way to a final round 71, to finish fourth alongside Parry. Looking at his Genworth Statistics for the week, the 27 year old golfer from the Netherlands looked very strong from tee to green, ranking 15th for Driving Accuracy and 5th for Greens in Regulation, plus when missing the greens only Seve Benson scrambled better. The two time European Tour winner was so consistent this week that no other player dropped fewer shots (he made just five bogeys and one double bogey over the tough Twenty Ten course). With this result Joost climbs up to 22nd on the Race to Dubai.

John PARRY -3

John Parry converted five birdies against two bogeys on his way to a final round 68, to finish fourth alongside Luiten. Looking at his Genworth Statistics for the week, the 26 year old English golfer produced some excellent numbers on the Par 3’s and Par 5’s (actually better than the winner Bourdy) but he seemed to struggle a little on the Par 4’s with a 4.17 scoring average (he did not make a single birdie on a Par 4 on the front nine all week). With this result John moves up to 57th on the Race to Dubai, just inside the all-important top 60 for the approaching Final Series.
