Shot Quality takes into account distance, lie, end result, weather and many other factors that impact the difficulty of each shot. A Shot Quality score of 0 denotes the worst possible outcome (such as lost ball or OB); 100 represents the expected score of the average male tour player; and 200 represents statistical perfection, such as a hole in one or holing out from long distance. 

We have not included any of the six holes-in-one recorded in the Ryder Cup because they all score the maximum 200 for Shot Quality. Find out more about Shot Quality and the layers of context Clippd factors into our calculations.
