Last week's Players Championship was a great event, ending with a dramatic, heartbreaking lip out.

Welcome to the "Saturday Morning Golf Stat" from the Hack it Out Golf Podcast. Many of us have spent the winter months working on indoor putting mats.

Over the past couple of years, Mark Crossfield has gained serious distance. For a long time, it was a joke on Mark's YouTube reviews that, whatever driver, whatever ball, he always carried every tee shot 262 yards.
