8 under $8,000: Cheap DFS plays for the 2023 Genesis Scottish Open
PGA DFS is often won or lost under $8k. At the top of the price range, especially in strong fields, any player can win in any given week. This isn’t true below $8k — some of the cheaper players have much better distributions of potential outcomes than others. Our job is to identify them. As […]

PGA DFS Hot Takes for the 2023 John Deere Classic
As we all wait for the golf world to head across the Atlantic Ocean, we’re left with one more weak-field birdie-fest at this week’s John Deere Classic. However, this is also one more chance to boost the bankroll before we get to some extremely exciting events. PGA DFS is all about weighing the risks […]

The Core and More: DFS Notes for the 2023 John Deere Classic
I hope you’re not tired of birdies in bunches, because the summer PGA Tour stretch continues, with another event played on a course with birdies readily available in this week’s John Deere Classic. Great drivers were able to feast last week in Detroit while it’s more of a second-shot test this week in the Quad […]

PGA Betting Course Fit and Stats: The 2023 John Deere Classic
It’s easy to faze out the PGA Tour a bit in this stretch of the season. From one birdiefest to another, one weak field to another, one thing doesn’t change – the money we can win is every bit as real as it is during elevated events or Majors. The John Deere Classic is far […]

PGA DFS Hot Takes for the 2023 Rocket Mortgage Classic
The Keegan Bradley/Corey Conners PGA DFS core worked to perfection last week. Am I feeling more and more pressure each week to continue the dominance of the first hot take? You bet, but that just makes it more fun. PGA DFS is all about weighing the risks and rewards of players in relation to their […]

The Core and More: DFS Notes for the 2023 Rocket Mortgage Classic
Imagine all of the birdies from TPC River Highlands but without the big numbers. That is what we will see this week in Detroit at the Rocket Mortgage Classic. Tony Finau has already tossed out the idea that 30-under is in play this week. We can take a look at easy-course performance and performance on […]

PGA DFS Course Fit and Stats: 2023 Rocket Mortgage Classic
Keegan Bradley! Fresh off the outright hit (now up over 200 units on the season), we head to a golf course that emphasizes off the tee performance above all else. I like our chances to stay hot! A brief reminder of the thought process behind and execution of the course fit model: Golf is the […]

The Core and More: DFS Notes for the 2023 Travelers Championship
From LACC to TPC River Highlands. It’s a long flight across the country, and we are in for quite the shakeup in terms of style of golf required. We saw distance and a high ball flight was very advantageous last week at LACC, but TPC River Highlands is one of the rare courses that has […]

The Core and More: DFS Notes for the 2023 U.S. Open
It’s a big week on the PGA Tour with the U.S. Open on the schedule. It’s the third major of the season and will certainly have plenty of drama considering the recent PGA-LIV merger news. It’s also a rare trip out West for a major. Despite the move westward, this course will feature bermudagrass […]

PGA DFS Course Fit and Stats: The 2023 US Open
Happy US Open week! The year’s third major changes venue each year, but each course hand-selected by the USGA tends to test the players in similar ways. In addition to our usual strokes-gained categories, this model also incorporates specific approach buckets, like long irons. Los Angeles Country Club should be a treat, and hopefully it […]

The Core and More: DFS Notes for the 2023 RBC Canadian Open
The world of golf has been turned on its head this week with the “merging” of the PGA Tour, LIV Golf and DP World Tour. Will that be a distraction for some in the field for this week’s RBC Canadian Open? It’s possible but without the ability to pinpoint that impact, it’s best to even […]

8 under $8,000: Cheap DFS plays for the 2023 Memorial Tournament
Every week — like at this week’s Memorial Tournament — a crucial part of success in PGA DFS GPPs will be hitting on lower-rostered/lower-salary golfers. Golf is a unique DFS sport in that all the golfers have the same opportunity to score. There are no starters, bench players, role players, third-down backs, etc. The golfer […]

The Core and More: DFS Notes for the 2023 Memorial Tournament
It’s time for milkshake mania at Muirfield Village, a yearly traditional. The shakes go down easy, but the course for the Memorial Tournament is not so easy. Muirfield Village presents one of the toughest non-major scoring tests of the season. Long par 4s, thick rough and lots of water hazards. Big numbers can pile up […]

The Core and More: DFS Notes for the 2023 Charles Schwab Challenge
Heading to Fort Worth this week, we see much warmer weather compared to last week. Wind is usually a big factor at this event (the Charles Schwab Challenge) but looks to be only a small factor this week, around 8 to 14 MPH for most of the week. This week’s event has a small […]
