Answer :
Will was the more consistent golfer in the last two majors this year.
The golfers, Rory and Will, played eight rounds of professional golf majors. To find out who was the more consistent golfer, we need to compare their scores to see which player had the smallest difference in their scores from round to round.
The first step to finding the more consistent golfer is to calculate the total scores of each player. Rory's total score is the sum of his scores:67 + 69 + 73 + 69 + 66 + 68 + 66 + 70 = 528
Will's total score is the sum of his scores:69 + 70 + 67 + 69 + 73 + 67 + 71 + 69 = 535
We will now calculate the average score of each player to see which player was more consistent. The average score is the total score divided by the number of rounds played.
Average score of Rory = Total score of Rory / Number of rounds played= 528 / 8= 66
Average score of Will = Total score of Will / Number of rounds played= 535 / 8= 66.875
Now, we will calculate the difference between each score from the average score to find the player with the smallest difference and hence the more consistent golfer.
Rory:67 - 66 = 169 - 66 = 373 - 66 = 773 - 66 = 773 - 66 = 268 - 66 = 268 - 66 = 4
Will:69 - 66.875 = 2.12570 - 66.875 = 3.12567 - 66.875 = 0.12569 - 66.875 = 2.12573 - 66.875 = 6.12567 - 66.875 = 0.12571 - 66.875 = 4.12569 - 66.875 = 2.125
The smallest difference between the score and the average score is for Will in rounds 3 and 6, where he scored 67 and 67 respectively.
