摘要

本研究嘗試運用資料包絡分析法尋求2004年美國職業高爾夫協會(PGA)賞金排行榜前50名運動員的績效表現。本研究設定一個投入項目（參賽數）、七個產出項目（獎金數、開球距離、開球準確率、上果嶺成功率、沙坑救球率、平均推桿數及救球成功率）評估高爾夫運動員的相對效率。研究結果如下：一、影響高爾夫運動員競技表現最大的項目為「開球距離」，另「上果嶺成功率」與「沙坑救球率」項目，F值均達顯著水準。二、總效率以Vijay Singh、Thomas Levet達到效率值1.0，表現最佳。三、23名運動員達到技術效率1.0有效率水準。四、規模報酬分析僅Vijay Singh、Thomas Levet兩位為固定規模狀態，其餘48名運動員為規模報酬遞減狀態。五、差額變異數分析提供技術效率未達1.0有效率狀態的27名運動員，各投入產出項目的合理績效與具體改進建議。六、綜合八項投入產出項目，以總效率、技術效率及參考集合次數之評分指標，明確區分運動員在2004年的績效表現與技術屬性，建立職業高爾夫運動員績效評估準則。研究結果驗證多目標決策理論之資料包絡分析法極適用於職業高爾夫運動員的績效評估研究。

This study used Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) to figure out the professional golfers' performance in top 50 money leaders of the Professional Golf Association Tournament (PGA tour) in 2004. It set 1 input (events), 7 outputs (money leaders, driving distance, driving accuracy percentage, greens in regulation percentage, sand save percentage, putts per round, and scrambling) to assess and analyze golfers' relative efficiency. The results were as follows. First, there were significant differences of three outputs (driving distance, greens in regulation percentage, and sand save percentage). Second, Vijay Singh and Thomas Levet reached the overall efficiency score 1.0. Third, 23 golfers accomplished technical efficiency score 1.0. Fourth, return to scale analysis provided Vijay Singh and Thomas Levet to CRS, and others to DRS. Fifth, slack variable analysis acquired reasonable efficiency and improvement suggestions for inefficiency golfers. Sixth, a professional golfers' assessment model was established according to the scores of OE, TE and peer set of eight items of input and output. The results proved DEA one of the Multi-Objective Decision Making (MODM) could evaluate the performance of professional golfers as efficiently as other efficiency assessment tools.
