How much does Tiger Woods earn per shot?

Using the official Tour statistics, we have reconstituted Tiger's entire professional career on the PGA Tour to show his prize money earnings and number of strokes played.

Although hobbling on one leg for much of a short and painful season in 2008, he managed to limp away with a cool $4,191 for every shot hit, whether it was a 300+ yard drive or a 3 inch tap in. His career average is a more modest $1,494 per shot, that's $103,414 per round - and he doesn't even have to buy his own golf balls...
