PGA Golf Model – Strokes Gained: Putting — PGA Championship Round 2
The first round is in the books at the PGA Championship and DFS darling Corey Conners is two strokes clear of the field. He just misses being in our first visual here by virtue of only being $7,900 but we’ll get to him shortly.  While Daniel Berger ($9,000) is likely to improve putting, he was […]

PGA Golf Model – Strokes Gained: Putting –AT&T Byron Nelson Round 4
As we head into Sunday down in McKinney, Texas, we have a pretty wide-open leaderboard thanks to the potential scoring conditions. Sam Burns holds a one-stroke lead at 20-under, but there are 13 other golfers at 15-under or better. Five strokes might sound like a lot, but there are low numbers to be had at […]

One of the guys we targeted in this article was Sam Burns who broke through with a 62 today to take a two-stroke lead as we head into the weekend. As with most decisions in DFS, we’re going to start with the top of the salary scale tonight.  Bryson DeChambeau ($10,300) is the most obvious […]

PGA Golf Model – Strokes Gained: Putting — Byron Nelson Round 2
We have a two-way tie atop the leaderboard with J.J. Spaun and Jordan Spieth. They each shot 63 on a day where the pros took advantage of this brand new course. If you shot even par today, you’re tied for 133rd place. In fact, only a dozen golfers finished over par. As always, the field […]

PGA Golf Model – Strokes Gained: Putting — Wells Fargo Round 4
As we head into the final round of this week’s Wells Fargo Championship, Keith Mitchell ($7,500) sits atop the leaderboard. He got there with a solid tee-to-green game and a decent putting week.

PGA Golf Model – Strokes Gained: Putting — Valspar Round 4
Just 18 holes remain for this year’s edition of the Valspar Championship, and we have a tie at the top of the leaderboard. Keegan Bradley and Sam Burns are both at 14-under. Bradley continued his god-mode run with yet another chip-in Saturday. Typically, I’d say it’s not sustainable, but he keeps proving that wrong this […]

PGA Golf Model – Strokes Gained: Putting
If I had a dollar for every time someone said “putting is random,” I’d be sitting on a beach with an umbrella in my drink right now. It’s almost become a meme at this point. The variance associated with putting makes it seem impossible to predict. However, we can quantify how sustainable putting is over certain […]
