PGA Tour Live Stats during the broadcast

I am watching the American Express on ESPN+ and I am reminded of the great stats that they show under the score bug during each shot. It seems so simple, but they are great; make percentages on the tour, previous history, summaries by hole of what the player is doing in the current round, etc. They add so much to my viewing of the round.
I am wondering why this has not been adopted by NBC and CBS. Yes they have stats, but they are not done nearly as well. Is it a cost thing? Laziness?

Only one of the three courses this week have shot data which is the Stadium Course. La Quinta and Nicholas are a guessing game

I cant wait until they go more in depth and realize that tour players can compete and win events if they average 6% to the pin on approaches. 4% gets you course record talks.
Using an 8% method helps see how close you are to an average tour player.
If you are 100 yards out the average tour player will be within 8% and above average will be 6%. That's 18-24 feet on average.
