WF Score — a weighted career score combining average rank percentile, peak finishes (top 1k/10k/50k), total points, season count, and recency weighting. Higher is better.

TAR (Total Average Rank) — career average overall rank across all seasons. Lower is better.

TAR % — career average rank percentile. Accounts for the growing player base each season. Lower is better.

Snapshot — WF Score computed using only history up to 2016/17. Regenerated from live data as coverage grows.
