2008 PGA Championship

For the 2008 PGA Championship, the free Golf CLi calculation is run with the following settings:

- Looking at the previous 5 PGA Championship (weights: 15% scoring average, 15% earnings average)

- Looking at the previous 60 days leading up to the 2008 PGA Championship (weights: 15% scoring average, 15% earnings average)

- Looking at the previous 8 tournaments players have played in leading up to the 2008 British Open (weights: 20% scoring average, 20% earnings average)

This is a different setting to what I used for the U.S. Open and the British Open. The difference is that I am only looking at the past 5 tournaments of the PGA Championship and not 7. As well, I am putting less weight on the results in the past instance of the PGA Championship and more weight on how the players are playing leading up to the event. The reason is because the PGA Championship does not have a trend of player's playing well in the event based upon past instances. Rather the players that are playing well leading up to the event are more apt to play well in this event.
