2022 Tour Championship Round 2 Showdown Picks and Strategy

Scottie Scheffler has opened up a commanding five-stroke lead as we head into the second round of the Tour Championship. The leaderboard behind Scheffler is bunched up, with a dozen other golfers at 6-under or better. Those scores include the starting strokes for this format, though, and that’s not exactly what we’re interested in. Matt […]

2022 Tour Championship Round 1 Showdown Picks and Strategy

We’ve reached the finale of the PGA Tour season as the last 30 golfers standing tee off for the Tour Championship Thursday. East Lake is a par-70 course that plays right around 7,300 yards. It’s right outside of Atlanta. I can guarantee with absolute certainty that there won’t be any wave advantage because, well, there […]

We have a tie at the top of the leaderboard for the FedEx St. Jude Championship with one round in the books. Si Woo Kim and JJ Spaun came out firing on Thursday with 8-under rounds. There were 16 other golfers that shot 5-under or better, so there were plenty of scoring opportunities to be […]

2022 St. Jude Championship Round 1 Showdown Picks and Strategy

The PGA Tour playoffs are officially here. The tour tees off at TPC Southwind on Thursday to get the race for the FedEx Cup underway. TPC Southwind a mid-length Par 70. It doesn’t appear that there will be much of a weather advantage for the first round. There’s a chance of a passing shower and […]

2022 LIV Bedminster Round 2 Showdown Picks and Strategy

The first round is on the books over on the LIV Tour. Henrik Stenson and Patrick Reed sit atop the leaderboard after opening round 64s. They sit two strokes clear of Phachara Khongwatmai and the rest of the field thru 18 holes. With no waves given the smaller field, there’s no weather advantages to be […]

2022 Rocket Mortgage Classic Round 2 Showdown Picks and Strategy

We had a nice day to start things off at the Rocket Mortgage. The morning wave played about 1.25 strokes easier than the afternoon wave and Michael Thompson carded a 6-under for the second-best round of the day. As far as weather concerns go, things look a bit more equitable on Friday. Tony Finau took […]

2022 Rocket Mortgage Classic Round 1 Showdown Picks and Strategy

The PGA Tour’s Rocket Mortgage Classic tees off Thursday. We’re used to plenty of scoring at this track with tournament-winning scores at 18-under or better in all three years of this course hosting. If the forecast below holds up, there will be a wave advantage for your round 1 showdown contests. I’d personally exclude […]

2022 Travelers Championship Round 2 Showdown Picks and Strategy

TPC River Highlands showed about as much teeth as a minor league hockey player on Thursday.

Easy game! […]

2022 Travelers Championship Round 1 Showdown Picks and Strategy

We love a nice four-day sweat with weeklong PGA DFS contests like we get this week for the Travelers Championship. The only thing better, though, is the instant gratification of the showdown sweat. We don’t have many issues to speak of with the weather. The gusts will calm down slightly as the day goes […]

2022 RBC Canadian Open Round 4 Showdown Picks and Strategy

Tony Finau and Rory McIlroy are tied for the lead two strokes ahead of a quartet at T3. The afternoon wave had an easier go at the course today. It was worth about 0.37 strokes/round. That isn’t adjusted for skill, though, so it was likely a bit closer than that. It appears that there […]
