I got the original idea for this gifanim from...

For my version, I got my data from the following...
http://www.pgatour.com/stats/r
Such as...
Distance:

Accuracy:

I created several discrete plots, using a 'where' clause to subset
the years of data I wanted on the goplot statement, and hardcoding
the years into the title for each plot. Also, I do a little bit of
fancy coding so that the graph looks like it chases itself, and
also at the end I fill-in the markers and pause for a while.
I knitted together the animation using dev=gifanim.
There's a little bit of custom syntax needed to start and end
the gifanim, and gifanims are not quite as automated as one might
wish for ... but the results are well worth the effort :)
