There may be an opportunity for past years, and going forward, for you to adjust your weighting scale to give you better results.
I ran a bunch of different weights and the one I've got delivered the best results.
I'll keep adjusting each year as I do store these data points in the same worksheet.

Obviously, it's difficult to use statistics to predict how actual humans might perform on a given 2-4 day window. Some Zach Johnson type person might have a great weekend... or a Rory might melt down.
For sure. Also, some players just show up for the Masters, which is why the Vegas odds favor so heavily.

Hank Haney just laid down some cool stats about Master's winners.
Last 13 years, winner was in Top 10 after Round 1.
Chances are extremely low of winning with 2 or more Double birdies in the tournament.
51 of 72 GIR is a key stat.
And I think there was one about number of 3-putts being a dis-qualifier.
ETA: Oh. And Tiger has only ever won when weather played a factor.
