We are pleased to release Kroll’s inaugural report, Measuring Their Shot: A Study of Professional Golfers’ Future Career Value. Using the principles of valuation, we ranked professional male golfers according to their potential future earnings.
Professional golf is often discussed by the numbers: rankings, driving distance, greens in regulation, scoring and putting stats. These numbers paint a picture of current and past performance. We, however, wanted to look ahead.
To do this, we compared the performances of professional male golfers against a database of over 1,000 players. After matching each professional to a subset of comparable players, we used statistical analysis and mathematical modeling to estimate the present value of each golfer’s potential tournament winnings and endorsement income through age 50, which we’ve called Future Career Value.
The result is a top 60 list of professional male golfers who have the greatest potential value.
While there are many ways to measure and rank golfers, this is the first study to measure golfers’ potential performance. We hope you find it fun and interesting to explore.
