Golf Season is Almost Here and Stats Matter

Welcome back to the Cox-Box blog! Today, I’m excited to share a humorous cartoon that combines the world of Six Sigma with the leisurely game of golf—one of my enjoyable pastimes when I can make time for it.

Why This Cartoon?

This cartoon is one of my favorites because it perfectly captures the essence of Six Sigma’s analytical approach in a humorous and relatable way. The idea of applying statistical analysis to a game of golf is both amusing and thought-provoking. It highlights how sometimes, the best-laid plans and data-driven strategies can lead to unexpected and humorous outcomes. More than once, I’ve thought about doing just that!
