I want this to be the top comment so we can get more suggestions.

The big question is are those balls lost more frequently because they're bad balls that veer off, good balls that go further, balls used by worse golfers, or cheap balls used by good players who don't bother to look for them because they're replacable.

Could you run this again filtering for only players rated > 75?

I think I get it. On the whole, defenders are most likely to be normal weight, then overweight.

Midfielders and attackers are mostly underweight, then normal weight.

Overweight players have a slightly better rating overall.

Players who are overweight tend to be older.
