PGA PrizePicks for the 2023 Valspar Championship
PrizePicks offers a different way to play fantasy sports than simply building a lineup of different golfers on a salary. There are different categories of props and matchups, which are not often offered anywhere else.   PrizePicks has birdie matchups, fairways hit, greens in regulation, score and occasionally scoring on set holes on the course.

8 under $8,000: Cheap DFS plays for the 2023 Valspar Championship
Every week — like at this week’s Players Championship— 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 who […]

PGA DFS Hot Takes for the 2023 Valspar Championship
I must admit — it’s easier to identify hot takes in the non-elevated PGA Tour events. The elevated events have seen softer pricing, resulting in wildly underpriced players (like Keegan Bradley at the API or Jason Day last week). At the Valspar, we’re back to the standard for PGA DFS — all chalk is fragile […]

The Core and More: DFS Notes for the 2023 Valspar Championship
The PGA Tour’s Florida swing rolls on for one more week as we ready for the Valspar at Innisbrook.    Despite its spot on the schedule, this event does draw some notable names each year as it provides a tough scoring environment which many find valuable as decent prep for the Masters.   The top of […]

PGA DFS Course Fit and Stats: 2023 Valspar Championship
The elevated events have caused a massive difference in the past few months between the strongest fields and weakest fields around the PGA. This is the first week in quite some time that has star power, but little depth behind it. This talent gap could mitigate the importance of course fit, but that won’t stop […]

Course Notes and Quotes: Copperhead Course
After a boom-or-bust week at TPC Sawgrass, we head to the Tampa Bay area for the Valspar. The event is hosted by the Copperhead Course at Innisbrook Resort. Known for the Snake Pit.    This classical, tree-lined course doesn’t yield many big numbers, unlike last week at TPC Sawgrass. It also doesn’t yield many birdies […]

PGA DFS Hot Takes for the 2023 Players Championship
The Players Championship is a high-leverage event with high-leverage shots. Trouble surrounds every corner, but so do scoring opportunities. It makes for a wonderfully entertaining event, hopefully with yet another stacked leaderboard.   PGA DFS is all about weighing the risks and rewards of players in relation to their ownership projections. Often, you have to […]

The Murray Model: DFS plays for the 2023 Players Championship

After a windy week at Bay Hill, we head to PGA Tour HQ for the fifth major this week, The Players Championship.   Staying in Florida, we’re not escaping the weather just yet.  As we saw last week, even with an open-shut case of wave advantage there was only 0.71 stroke differential between the two […]

The Arnold Palmer Invitational is likely to be a preview of what’s to come in this year’s Major Championships.

PGA DFS Hot Takes for the 2023 Honda Classic
A weaker PGA field is actually kind of great for hot takes. A shocking number of players in the Honda Classic field are capable of both contending and missing the cut by five strokes. The variability of PGA National only adds to this fact. Consequently, we’re left with a decision either to lean into the […]
