We want to know the mean winning score at the US Open golf championship. An internet search gives us all the scores for the history of that tournament, and we create a 95% confidence interval based on a t-distribution. This procedure was not appropriate. Why?
◦ Tiger Woods' recent record-setting score is probably an outlier.
◦ The entire population of scores was gathered so there is no reason to do inference.
◦ Since these are the best players in the world, the scores are probably skewed.
◦ In big golf tournaments the players are not randomly selected.
◦ The population standard deviation is known, so we should have used a z-model.
