The 3M open is not exactly the most exciting week on Tour, but regardless of the event, PGA DFS is all about weighing the risk and reward of players in relation to their ownership projections. Often, you have to feel like you’re on an island when it comes to your viewpoint of a play in […]

7 under $7,000: Cheap DFS plays for the 2021 3M Open
After a successful 7-under 7k week at The Open, I regret to inform you all that there isn’t a single player under $7k that I’m comfortable recommending. Even if MMEing, I wouldn’t include a single one in my pool. So, for this week, we’re going to change things up and I’m going to discuss the […]

PGA DFS Course Fit and Stats: 2021 3M Open
Golf is the only sport where the “arena” in which it is played changes dramatically from one event to another. Consequently, each tournament provides its own unique challenge, which emphasizes certain areas of the game more than others. At this point, you’ll want to familiarize yourself with the strokes gained statistics, if you haven’t already. […]

PGA DFS volatility report: 2021 3M Open
Even though the tour is coming off a major week, at least at the moment, we still have a decent field for the 3M Open. The venue is TPC Twin Cities once again this year. It’s a Par 71 that plays just about 7,400 yards.  The white quadrant is what we’re typically targeting and this […]

2021 Open Championship Showdown picks: Round 4
It will take a truly special effort to put up a big number at Royal St. George’s tomorrow. And by big, I mean small…with it being golf, and all. This year, 66-of-77 golfers who made the cut shot scores within eight strokes of each other. There were a couple of outliers, of course, notably the […]

2021 Open Championship Showdown picks: Round 3
Louis Oosthuizen ($9,700) is your leader at The Open Championship heading through two rounds. He heads into the weekend two strokes clear of Collin Morikawa ($8,900) and the rest of the field. As I mentioned in our last piece, the lack of strokes gained data has turned this article this week into a more traditional […]

2021 Open Championship Showdown picks: Round 2
We’re through one round at Royal St. George’s with Louis Oosthuizen ($9,500) one stroke clear of the field. He’s hitting greens despite his lack of fairways. The South African only managed to hit 42% of his fairways but still found the putting surface over 75% of the time. Brandt Snedeker ($6,600) was the sharpest with […]

Core DFS plays for the 2021 Open Championship
Welcome back everyone to the year’s final golf major of the year. The Open Championship, aka The British Open (let’s not get into proper title, we know what we’re talking about), is a rotational event each year where each courses is seen only every 7-10 years.

7 under $7,000: Cheap DFS plays for the 2021 Open Championship
In PGA DFS action most weeks, dipping below $7k can be quite ugly. For The Open Championship this week, however, I love the $6k range. Not only do I think there are a handful of strong options, but I don’t think there’s much difference between the $7ks and the $6ks, making the extra savings all […]

PGA Golf Model – Strokes Gained: Putting – John Deere Classic Rd. 4
With birdie opportunities to be had all around TPC Deere Run, this is one of the weeks that I’m comfortable taking some chances down the leaderboard. In lower-scoring tournaments, the finish position points make up a larger percentage of Round 4 Showdown scoring, but with golfers regularly hitting 65 and better here, I don’t think […]

With the leading score already pushing down to 13-under through 36 holes, we could be in for some fireworks over the weekend. No, not the fireworks that your jackass neighbor is still setting off on July 9 (Yes, I’m talking about you Michael.). There were four 63s and six 64s on Friday. My assumption is that […]

Sebastian Munoz and Chesson Hadley are tied atop the leaderboard heading into round two. With 101 golfers under par, TPC Deere Run hasn’t exactly shown any teeth. That’s no surprise, though, as the historical winning score can push into 20-under territory here.    Seamus Power ($8,900) and Daniel Berger ($10,500) came into the week high […]

Going bargain hunting for players under $7k in PGA DFS is always a challenge, but particularly so with a weak field such as the one we have for this week’s John Deere Classic. There’s little upside in terms of win equity to accommodate the added risk, so we have to be creative in the ways […]

This week we have the Bryson Invitational, otherwise known as the Rocket Mortgage Classic, previously known as the Rickie Fowler Invitational.

I think Bryson is a strong favorite […]
