7 under $7,000: Cheap plays for the 2021 Waste Management Phoenix Open

This week, the golf world heads to Arizona for the Waste Management Phoenix Open. DFS golf is not won by correctly identifying which high-priced golfer will perform well; the money is made in the trenches where we find low-owned value plays who separate our lineups from the rest. Each week I find seven stories to […]

2021 Waste Management Phoenix Open DFS preview

This week the PGA Tour leaves California and heads for Phoenix to play the Waste Management Phoenix Open at TPC Scottsdale Stadium Course. It will be a strange scene this year I’m sure, as the “loudest hole in golf” won’t be so loud, with the tournament limiting spectators to only 5,000 per day. I truly […]

7 under $7,000: Cheap golf plays for the 2021 Farmers Insurance Open

DFS golf is not won by correctly identifying which high priced golfer will perform well. The money is made in the trenches where we find low-owned value plays that separate our lineups from the rest. Each week I find seven stories to tell for golfers priced below $7,000 who possess slate-winning upside with cut-making safety. […]

Course preview and core plays for the 2021 Farmers Insurance Open

This week at the 2021 Farmers Insurance Open, as opposed to last week, birdie making is not really the priority, but I am looking at birdie/bogey ratios to help get a clearer picture in each range. You will see guys at the top of this leaderboard in the past usually at the top of birdies, […]

Each week, we use this space to comb through the bottom of the DFS pricing barrel of the PGA events to identify seven plays under $7,000 who can be key plays that week. They will vary from players who are mispriced due to recent form, Monday qualifiers who were just added, International or Korn Ferry […]

FanDuel DFS plays for the 2021 American Express

Welcome back, FTN family! This week’s tournament, The American Express, is typically a three-course rotation. However, as we navigate our way through the changes of the 2021 schedule, it will have a different format than we are used to. Golfers will play both the Stadium Course and the Nicklaus Course in the first two rounds […]

The 2021 American Express DFS preview

This week’s PGA Tour tournament preview takes us to California for the American Express.  You read that correctly, there is no formal “open, tournament, shoot-out, etc.,” just the American Express.  It’s awful, like this tournament can often be.  However, the amateur portion of this event has been canceled this year, turning this normal snooze fest […]

Welcome back for another week in paradise, as the PGA Tour plays its second of two season-opening events in Hawaii: the Sony Open. A majority of the golfers who played in last week's Sentry Tournament of Champions are back this week, including Harris English. With back-to-back events in Hawaii, it only makes sense that most […]

After a tumultuous 2020, the PGA Tour returns to kick off the 2021 calendar year in Kapalua, HI, at the Sentry Tournament of Champions.  This is mostly a tournament of champions, but with the 2020 schedule deviating, the requirements to get into the Tournament of Champions was altered.

Analyzing variance in putting on the PGA Tour

This week, I would like to see if there is any predictability in putting when breaking it down by five-foot increments. Last week, I introduced a basic breakdown showing how ball striking and short game relates to a golfer’s skill. We saw that although ball-striking made up more of the composition, the short game still played […]

Analyzing golf skill vs. long and short games

Every week, the most talked about statistics in golf are strokes gained, and in particular, ball striking. If you’re not familiar with strokes gained, the PGA Tour describes in depth how it is calculated here. On the surface, strokes gained stats are great at telling the story of how a golfer has come upon their […]

DP World Tour Championship — Round 1 showdown

The DP World Tour Championship offers a great opportunity to attack in DFS showdown slates. This event is essentially a giant showdown slate to begin with, considering it’s a no-cut, but we can also gain an advantage in the showdown slates using our course knowledge and projections. We know we can beat the general public […]
