What is Model?
This week's overall score, 0-100. Blends True Skill (45%), Course Fit (35%) and Form (20%). It ranks the field for this venue — it is not a win probability.
Players with little measured PGA Tour data are scored partly from defaults and carry a LOW DATA flag; treat those scores with suspicion.
How it's calculated
This is part of the course-fit model — the one place on OTIS where published numbers are combined into a score of our own, rather than restated. The components are shown separately so a total can always be taken apart into skill, venue fit and recent form. It is labelled as a model wherever it appears.
How to read it
Higher is better, on a 0-100 scale. It ranks a field for one week at one venue and is meaningless compared across weeks.
What it doesn't say
This is a modelled number, not a published one, and it is a ranking device rather than a prediction. It says a player's game matches what a venue has rewarded historically — nothing about injuries, weather on the day, or form that has not shown up in the data yet. Small gaps between adjacent players are noise, and venues with little hosting history produce weaker-supported scores than long-standing hosts.
