And to your final point, I would say that the guys leading are the guys who have been the most precise/accurate. They've stayed out of the bunkers/fescue for the most part, and are finding the right areas of these greens.
Not really required to be that precise off the tee. It takes a real foul ball to hit it in the junk from what I can tell.

It's not really the number the guys are getting to, it's the abundance of them that are getting to it. When there are that many guys that far in the red, it's not a good test.
