Genworth Stats Pack - Summary Report

Round 4 of the DP WORLD TOUR CHAMPIONSHIP, DUBAI produced 32 sub-par rounds and a field average score of 71.14. Henrik Stenson emerged as the winner with Ian Poulter and Victor Dubuisson finishing as his closest challengers. We analyse their performances and round up the final Genworth Statistics leaders.

Henrik STENSON -25

Henrik Stenson converted six birdies and an eagle (at the 18th hole) on his way to a bogey free final round 64 (the low round of the day), to emerge as the winner of the DP WORLD TOUR CHAMPIONSHIP, DUBAI by six shots. Looking at his Genworth Statistics for the week, the 37 year old Swedish golfer produced nothing less than a tee to green golfing masterclass, ranking 1st for Driving Accuracy (with 50/56 fairways - three more than any other player) and 1st for Greens in Regulation (with 68/72 greens - five more than any other player). That imperious level of consistency led to incredible scoring across the different hole types (including a 3.65 average for Par 4 Scoring), but most impressive of all, just two dropped shots over the Jumeirah Golf Estates course for the week. With this win Henrik Stenson wins the overall Race to Dubai by €931,067.

Ian POULTER -19

Ian Poulter converted seven birdies against a single bogey on his way to a final round 66, to finish as the tournament runner-up. Looking at his Genworth Statistics for the week, the 37 year old English golfer also produced some fantastic tee to green play, ranking 10th for Driving Accuracy, 7th for Driving Distance and 4th for Greens in Regulation, plus he recorded some excellent numbers with the short stick and scored heavily on the Par 5’s. Although he couldn’t quite match the brilliance of Stenson this week, finishes of 15th / 2nd / 5th / 2nd and a Stroke Average of 68.06 confirm the 12-time European Tour winner as the most consistent performer over The Final Series. With this result, Ian finishes the season in 2nd position on the Race to Dubai and on top of the Ryder Cup European Points List.
