PGA DFS Hot Takes for the 2024 Arnold Palmer Invitational
What a run it’s been since the start of February. It’s now four top 5% single-entry finishes including a huge takedown, all in one month! Without question, the new GPP scores (also discussed in the lineup review linked above) have played an enormous role in our success, and they will be a centerpiece of this week’s Min […]

The Core and More: DFS Notes for the 2024 Arnold Palmer Invitational
Taking on Bay Hill this week for Arnie’s Invite, this course and event in general has a lot of prestige. Tiger Woods won here eight times over the course of his career, showing that elite tee-to-green play gets rewarded here.  Tiger was known for being relatively conservative in his play style but efficient when he […]

The Core and More: DFS Notes for the 2024 Cognizant Classic
PGA National is famed for hosting the 2020 DFS Open, but it also runs a PGA Tour event. Formerly known as the Honda Classic, they’ve shifted to something that really rolls right off the tongue. It’s the Cognizant Classic in The Palm Beaches.  Situated just 10 miles from Jupiter, this is a home game for […]

PGA DFS Hot Takes for the 2024 Cognizant Classic
What a run it’s been in PGA DFS in February. Three top 3% single-entry finishes including a huge takedown, all in one month! Without question, the new GPP scores (also discussed in the lineup review linked above) have played an enormous role in our success, and they will play a role in this week’s hot takes, as […]

PGA Single-Entry Takedown Lineup Review: Mexico Open
The $200 Driver (Single Entry) with 277 entries is my go-to contest on DraftKings for PGA DFS. I like the fact that it’s top-heavy overall (20% to first place), yet relatively flat at the top. It’s also small enough that a takedown is a low-probability event, but not that unlikely. At Pebble Beach, I finished […]

The Core and More: DFS Notes for the 2024 Mexico Open
The PGA Tour heads to Vidanta Villarta this week for the third hosting of the Mexico Open.  Historically this has been a bomber’s paradise, but will that be the case this week, having the event moved up two months to late February instead of late April? Players are already saying the wind direction and softness […]

PGA DFS Hot Takes for the 2024 Mexico Open
It takes a special kind of crazy to be good at PGA DFS. It is perhaps the most volatile of all the major sports, there’s little correlation to take advantage of, and we only get six roster spots for each lineup. Consequently, to gain an edge over our competition we have to be bold – […]

PGA DFS Ownership Report: 2024 Genesis Invitational
Now four weeks into this article, we can confidently say that we have the best PGA ownership projections in the industry. We’ve magnified this advantage by introducing our new GPP scores, which have resulted in back-to-back weeks of tremendous success at Pebble Beach and TPC Scottsdale, and more recently an enormously important fade at The Genesis […]

The Core and More: DFS Notes for the 2024 Genesis Invitational
Tiger Woods returns this week to host and play in the Genesis Invitational at Riviera Country Club. This is one of the rare courses that Tiger has failed to conquer over the course of his career. Given that fact, and his lack of competitive reps, I would expect this to be a “shake off the […]

PGA DFS Ownership Report: 2024 WM Phoenix Open
In PGA DFS, the landscape is a bit different from its NFL counterpart. Unlike the gridiron battles where individual player performances can significantly impact each other, golf is a solitary pursuit. What one player does cannot help, nor prevent, another from doing the same on the PGA ownership review for the WM Open.   In […]

Mutli-course season is officially over, as the PGA Tour takes on TPC Scottsdale this week for the WM Phoenix Open.  This is a unique event that really brings out the crazies in large quantities.

The PGA Tour stays in California for another week, heading to the Monterrey Peninsula for this week’s AT&T Pro-Am. In typical coastal clambake fashion, we have wet terrain ahead of this week’s event at the iconic host venue, Pebble Beach Golf Links.

PGA DFS Course Fit and Stats: 2024 Farmers Insurance Open
