Super Golfonomics continues along the path of Professor Shmanske’s pathbreaking Golfonomics. It uses economic and statistical analysis of the sport of golf for three main purposes, (1) For the enjoyment of golfers and fans of professional golf, (2) to teach a little economics and show how it can be used to analyze the game of golf, and (3) to use golf statistics and golf course statistics to comment on social, political, and economic issues like gender discrimination, inefficient pricing and public finance. Professor Shmanske pioneered the field of golf economics with his early writings in Golfonomics. Now, Super Golfonomics presents his more recent scholarship in the field in a form accessible to an intelligent, general readership.br/ boldContents: /bold bulletlistbulletIntroduction/bulletbulletThe Economics of Slow Play/bulletbulletGolf Course Waiting: The Good, the Bad …/bulletbulletGolf Course Waiting: … and the Ugly/bulletbulletConsistency or Heroics/bulletbulletSkills, Performance, and Earnings in the Tournament Compensation Model: Evidence from PGA TOUR Microdata/bulletbulletGender Discrimination Revisited/bulletbulletGender and Driving Distance/bulletbulletTo Play or not to Play: The Skills Match/bulletbulletTo Enter or not to Enter: Another Look/bulletbulletTo Bet or not to Bet: Sports Gambling, Golf, and Efficient Markets/bulletbulletStill Looking for Economic Impact: The Case of the Golf Majors/bulletbulletThe Best of the Rest/bullet /bulletlist br/ boldReadership: /boldResearchers and students who are interested in applying economics principles to the game of Golf. boldKey Features:/bold bulletlist bulletThere are no competing titles (except Golfonomics)/bullet bulletContains new, up-to-date, cutting edge scholarship /bullet bulletInteresting to golfers, fans of golf, students of economics, and students of sports economics/bullet
