Abstract: College athletics have grown into a major industry and athletic departments are pushing coaches to recruit the top talent. To recruit golfers , college coaches depend on multiple ranking systems. These systems are bias towards more expensive , national tournaments over inexpensive , state tournaments. In response , players who come from a lower socio-economic class will have fewer financial aid opportunities than someone from a higher economic class. Analyzing junior girls' golf statistics , has led to the creation of an objective methodology to compare golfers without regard to socio-economic imbalances.
