0-for-37 -- Arnold Palmer's record in the PGA, the only major title he has failed to win. Palmer finished runner-up three times, including 1964, when he played all four rounds under 70.
1 -- Repeat winners at the PGA since the tournament switched to stroke play in 1958 -- Tiger Woods in '99 and 2000.
2 -- Players who have won the British Open and PGA Championship in the same year since 1958 -- Woods (2000) and Nick Price ('94). British Open champ David Duval will try to become the third.
6 -- Winners who led after every round: Woods (2000), Hal Sutton ('83), Raymond Floyd ('82, '69), Jack Nicklaus ('71) and Bobby Nichols ('64).
10 -- First-round leaders who went on to win tournament, including Woods last year. The second-round leader has won 13 times, and the third-round leader 23.
12 -- Players who have posted four rounds under 70 in a PGA. However, only three of them were winners -- Lee Trevino (1984), Paul Azinger ('93) and Steve Elkington ('95). Elkington was also the last player to accomplish the feat, shooting 69-69-69-67 and finishing third in 1998.
13 -- Non-American champions since 1916. There have been 69 winners from the United States.
27 -- The record for cuts made, shared by Floyd and Nicklaus.
58.3 -- Percentage of times Jose Marie Olazabal has missed the cut (7 of 12). He finished tied for fourth last year after missing the cut three times in a row.
63 -- The PGA Championship record for lowest single-round score, shared by six players: Bruce Crampton (1975), Floyd ('82), Gary Player ('84), Vijay Singh ('93) and Olazabal (2000). Of the group, only Floyd won the tournament that year.
75 -- Highest first-round score by an eventual winner. John Mahaffey shot a 4-over-par 75 in the opening round but proceeded to fire a final-round 66 to complete a seven-stroke Sunday comeback, the biggest in tournament history.
97 -- Golfers in this year's PGA Championship field ranked in the world's top 100, setting a tournament record. The previous mark was 92 in 1999.
267 -- The lowest 72-hole score, shared by Elkington and Colin Montgomerie -- in 1995. Elkington went on to win the tournament in a playoff.
287 -- The highest 72-hole score by a winner (Larry Nelson, 1987).
500 -- Dollars "Big Jim" Barnes won for winning the inaugural PGA in 1916, in addition to a diamond medal. Barnes beat Jock Hutchison 1-up.
8,900 -- Dollars Frank Dobbs won for finishing 80th -- and last of players making the cut -- in last year's tournament.
