What would be the better ranking for an overall performance, ‘Total Rank in all Categories? As of Saturday morning at the Shriners it looks as though only 50% of the Top10 ‘Total Rank’ will make the cut. Am I missing something or is this just the golf gods?
Mark R this is something that happens a lot in tournaments this time of year, a total act of the “Golf Gods”. There is rhyme or reason on what is happening in Vegas. A good portion of the marquee names in this event missed the cut, gosh I am usually very good in Draft Kings and four of my six picks missed the cut. With this wrap around scheduling we are seeing a lot of this, that is because the folks that are working really hard on their games are those that just got their tour cards, folks like Webb Simpson and Brooks Koepka aren’t in form right now. That is the biggest problem, marquee names are realizing that they have to play and don’t know how to get ready. The next two weeks along with the WGC-HSBC also creates a problem because players aren’t and don’t really want to play.
These next four weeks are a great way of testing all this new stuff we are doing for Golfstats which we can then tweak before the tour starts up in January. But in studying it the last half of the golf season we can see that this Course Keys is an important way to judge players. Just have to get the mix right, oh just like everything else its not going to be 100%, probably in the realm of 60 to 70% like it was for the Frys.
