• Power sits at A for Knapp, top-tier across the 2025–26 pool: only 8 players in the pool rate higher. How far the ball goes off the tee — long hitters shorten every hole.
• Accuracy sits at B for Knapp, a step below the pool average across the 2025–26 pool: 55 of the other 95 players in the pool rate higher. How often the ball finds the fairway and stays out of trouble.
• Iron Play B+ — a shade above the pool average in the 2025–26 pool; 37 of the other 95 players in the pool rate higher. Precision from the fairway into the green — the single biggest driver of low scores.
• Short Game sits at B for Knapp, a touch below tour-average across the 2025–26 pool: 64 of the other 95 players in the pool rate higher. Scrambling around the green — chips, pitches, and bunker shots that save par.
• Putting A — elite in the 2025–26 pool; only 5 players in the pool rate higher. Holing putts, especially the ones inside ten feet that turn pars into birdies.
• At A-, Knapp's course iq rating is a clear strength (88th percentile of the 2025–26 pool) — only 11 players in the pool rate higher. Course management and shot selection — playing the smart shot, not just the bold one.
• Nerve A- — a clear strength in the 2025–26 pool; 16 of the other 95 players in the pool rate higher. Composure in contention — how a golfer performs with the tournament on the line.
• At A-, Knapp's consistency rating is comfortably above tour-average (81st percentile of the 2025–26 pool) — 18 of the other 95 players in the pool rate higher. How tightly a golfer's scores cluster around their average, round after round.
• Engine sits at A- for Knapp, well above the pool average across the 2025–26 pool: 26 of the other 95 players in the pool rate higher. Stamina and durability across a long season — fewer withdrawals, less late-year fade.

Bomber. A bomber — power is the standout attribute here, the kind of off-the-tee advantage that turns long par-5s into two-shot holes and shortens every other club in the bag.
