If you’ve read our study on the average earnings per shot of the world’s top 10 golfers, you’ll know we love crunching the numbers on the PGA tour. And we particularly love a good stat on Tiger. So we’re back at it again. This time, we thought it would be fun to figure out how much the big cat has earned in every US state throughout his career. Here’s what we got!
