Chitimacha Louisiana Open Trends
The Chitimacha Louisiana Open has been a fixture on the Web.com Tour since 1992, which means we have plenty of historical trends to fall back on.
The tournament is played annually at Le Triomphe Golf & Country Club, a par-71 which has yielded some low scores.
The winning trends of the last five years exclude 2008 winner Gavin Coles and 2015 champion Kris Blanks is replaced by runner-up Brett Stegmaier because of a lack of data:
Top-60 on tour for total driving
Eight of the last nine ‘winners’ were capable of hitting the ball long and/or straight which meant they ranked in the top-60 on tour for total driving.
Top-60 on tour for all around ranking
Eight of the last nine ‘winners’ had solid all round games, with Ed Loar and Casey Wittenberg ranking inside the top-10 for this metric.
Top-60 on tour for par-5 scoring
Despite being a par-71 there are four par-5s on the card and they need to be taken advantage of. All of the last nine winners ranked inside the top-60 for par-5 scoring.
