When utilizing the Team Draft and selecting the option "Ranking from a previous league," the rankings will be computed using the golfers’ scores from a selected Event/League (chosen in the Draft setup).
Ranking with Past Results Computation:
To compute the rankings, we have to extract the following values from the selected Event/League:
Times Played: Number of rounds played in the selected Event/League
Gross Average: Average gross score in the selected Event/League
Net Average: Average net score in the selected Event/League
These values are computed for the selected Event/League and are displayed on the Player Event/League Standings portal page within the select Event/League (as shown below).
These values are used to calculate each golfer’s Gross Rank and Net Rank.
Gross/Net Rank Computation:
Gross Rank Computation:
The Gross Rank will be computed for each player and will represent their rank based on the gross scores from the selected Event/League.
Because golfers played different numbers of rounds in the past, we can not use their average gross score from the past Event/League. We will assign each golfer a Gross Scale value based on their average gross and the number of rounds played to get a normalized value from the average gross.
The formula to compute the Gross Scale for one golfer is:
(Avg. Gross - Overall Avg. Gross) - (Maximum Rounds Played - Rounds Played) * Score Adj
Where:
Avg. Gross: Golfer’s average gross in the selected Event/League
Overall Avg. Gross: Average gross score of all players in the selected Event/League
Maximum Rounds Played: Maximum rounds played by any player from the draft in the selected Event/League
Rounds Played: Number of rounds played by the golfer in the selected Event/League
Score Adj: Average score adjustment for each round missed set in the Draft Setup
Net Rank Computation:
The Net Rank is computed using the same algorithm as the Gross Rank, but the net average score from the selected Event/League is used to compute the Net Scale.
Final Ranking Compulation:
Another variable used for the final rankings is the number of gross picks, which is computed using the following formula:
# of Gross Picks = (Gross Scores Counted + 1) * Number of Teams
Where:
Gross Scores Counted is set in the Draft setup.
Number of Teams is the number of teams participating in the Draft.
The final rankings will be determined using the following:
Create two lists of golfers:
All Golfers sorted by gross scale.
All Golfers sorted by net scale.
Select the best "X" number of golfers from the list sorted by Gross Scale, where:
X = # of Gross Picks
# of Gross Picks = (Gross Scores Counted + 1) * Number of Teams
Remove golfers from the Net Scale List selected as the best "X" golfers from the Gross Scale List.
Compile the final list in the following order:
Best "X" golfers ordered by their gross scale
The rest of the golfers ordered by their net scale
