• While the field had a hard time finding the green in regulation at Bay Hill (57.96 percent), Singh hit 72.2 percent (2nd) of the greens for the week.

• He was 16 for 19 when putting from 4 to 8 ft. (T14th) and 63 for 69 when putting from inside of 10 feet (91.3 percent) for the week.

• He totaled 18 birdies for the week and remained under par 25 percent of the time (1st).

• Scoring on the front and back nine was quite different for Singh, as he averaged 32.75 on the front and almost three strokes more on the back (35.25).

• He spread his scoring evenly among the par 3s, 4s and 5s with averages of 3 (T8th), 3.94 (T3rd), and 4.38 (T5th) respectively.
