Individual contributions from each of the Top 5 teams from the 2024 Greenwood Cup
This metric is measured by how many holes each team used each player's scores in the best ball format of the Greenwood Cup. We can see that the winners in Bennet Kuhns and Dylan Knox, both from Austin, Texas, had a very balanced team dynamic with Kuhns contributing for 16 of the holes and Knox contributing for 17 of the holes. This means that they not only had very equal contributions, but they also did not tie holes very often, meaning their good holes were not wasted by overlapping each other. However, some of the other high-performing teams had less balanced contributions, so balanced players may not be the only way to success.
We should keep in mind that since this is a best ball tournament, holes are not always finished and scores are not always entered on every hold for every player. Because of these little inconsistencies, sometimes the numbers are not a fully accurate reflection of players' performance.
