Yearly Scrambling Leaders on Champions Tour
The Champions Tour (the PGA Tour's senior tour) has kept the Scrambling stat since 1992. Scrambling Percentage is defined as the the percentage of time a player misses the green in regulation, but still makes par or better. Golfers who miss the green but still scramble to make par are ones who are resourceful and who have strong short games.
