A tournament is rarely wrong on its own. It is wrong in the sequence. These are the starts in the same state three weeks before and two weeks after.
Based on junior events played at this course — not only this tournament. Scores are shown as event stroke totals when score-to-par is not available.
Course history gives families a quick sense of what scores have been competitive here. A low top-25% number usually means the top of the field is strong. A wide spread typically means the event draws a broader mix of players — useful context when deciding if an event is a good fit for your player.

Tournament choices are only one scoreboard. Rankings, comparison, coaching noise, confidence, and the car ride home can shape a season just as much. The Hidden Scoreboards is a short book for parents trying to support their player without becoming the pressure.
