Here are the top 15 strongest course fit players based on my model. Note that the red numbers next to player's names indicate their team. For example, Ryan Gerard and Sudarshan Yellamaraju both have 4's next to their name because they are teammates.
Here's how I'm weighting the model per individual player (then averaged for team score):
SG: APP — 25%
Birdie or Better % — 20%
SG: Putting — 15%
Par 5 scoring / SG: Par 5 — 15%
Proximity 200+ yds — 10%
SG: ARG — 10%
Course history — 5%
