Minutes by country of origin. Each country is shaded by its share of the minutes; the bands are fixed, so one season can be compared with another. Hover or focus a country for its figures, and read the table below for all of them. A country too small to draw at this crop is marked with a dot.

United States	2,970	50.0%

Italy	395	6.6%

No birthplace is on record for 1,688 of these minutes, so they go by the player's recorded nationality instead.

Totals are summed from what the record holds — see the coverage note.
