📋 How the model works

For each player, simulate the remaining rounds 5,000 times:

  • Per-round score ~ Normal(mean, σ=3) where mean = -SKILL_PER_STROKE × (player's current total − field median).
  • Better players (lower current total) get a slight skill bonus that reduces their expected per-round score.
  • Sum simulated remaining-round scores onto current total to get final 72-hole position.
  • Tally P(rank=1), P(rank≤5), P(rank≤10), P(rank≤20) across all sims.
  • Convert probabilities → fair American odds with no vig added.

Compare to live sportsbook prices to find +EV. (Bookmaker pricing usually 20-30% vig on outrights — needs ~5% edge to break even after vig.)
