The Core and More: DFS Notes for the 2023 Ryder Cup
The United States will do battle with Europe, in Rome, at this week’s Ryder Cup. If you’ve read any previews for the event, you’re probably aware of Team USA’s poor record on foreign soil. Will it be more of the same or will the new era of U.S. team golf have something else to say […]

The Core and More: DFS Notes for the 2023 Fortinet Championship
The DP World Tour has kept us busy over the last few weeks, but it’s great to get some golf in the States again. It’s a strange schedule spot with just this one event in Napa before a week off and then the Ryder Cup. Without much form to look at, I want to lean […]

2023 Fortinet Championship Betting Preview
The PGA Tour returns this week with the inaugural FedEx Fall series starting this week in Napa. It’s the Fortinet Championship at Silverado Resort. While the incentives for playing in the fall are different this year, not much has changed with this week’s event. The host course has been used for roughly a decade and […]

2023 Irish Open Betting Preview
The 2023 Ryder Cup is just around the corner, so it’s fitting for the DP World Tour to head to The K Club this week for the Irish Open, a former Ryder Cup venue. This inland, parkland track hosted the 2006 Ryder Cup, which ended in a European landslide, winning 18.5-9.5 that week. The […]

The Core and More: DFS Notes for the 2023 Tour Championship
The PGA Tour’s playoff finale is taking place this week in Atlanta with a small field of 30 golfers teeing it up at East Lake Golf Club for the Tour Championship. This event has unique scoring with golfers assigned starting strokes according to their FedEx Cup standings. For DFS, that plays a key role as […]

4 under $8,000: Cheap DFS plays for the 2023 Tour Championship
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. This […]

2023 Tour Championship Betting Preview
This weeks Tour Championship is the final event of the 2023 PGA Tour campaign. It should be a huge deal, but the tournament usually goes off with a whimper thanks to the format. With just 30 golfers remaining, match play would be the ideal format for viewing, but they’ve opted for a handicapped stroke-play format. […]

PGA Betting Outrights: 2023 Tour Championship
Welcome to the most difficult week in all of golf betting! We lack a course fit model, and the staggered starting scores create a riddle that’s far more difficult to solve than most weeks. Let’s start with the course fit model — the goal of the model is to explain variation in historical performance […]

The Core and More: DFS Notes for the 2023 BMW Championship
The PGA Tour heads to Chicago to take on Olympia Fields Country Club. We last saw the course at the 2020 BMW Championship. Only five golfers finished under-par that week as the wind whipped and the course was playing extremely firm and fast. We should expect softer conditions this week, but it should still be […]

8 under $8,000: Cheap DFS plays for the 2023 BMW Championship
This week’s BMW Championship features a limited field of just 50 golfers. They are the top-50 golfers this season, though, so all are capable of contending. Combine that with stretched-out pricing from DraftKings, and there needs to be a lot of focus on the salary cellar. While I said anyone in the field is capable […]

PGA DFS Hot Takes for the 2023 BMW Championship
This week’s hot takes will once again feature our birdie rate over expectation metric, as it proved to be quite the cheat code last week. I cashed easily with Rory and Cam Davis as the only two guys who played well because everyone I used outperformed their real life performance in DraftKings points. PGA DFS […]

PGA DFS Hot Takes for the 2023 FedEx St. Jude Championship

The Core and More: DFS Notes for the 2023 FedEx St. Jude Championship
The playoffs start this week with a limited-field event taking place at TPC Southwind. There are just 70 golfers pegging it this week in Memphis and no-cut events always lead to more gamers gravitating to a stars-and-scrubs approach for DFS roster construction. It’s certainly tempting to take those salary savings at the bottom when […]

PGA Betting Outrights: 2023 FedEx St. Jude Championship
For the second consecutive week, I only have one outright bet (so far). Surprise, surprise — it’s Keegan! Again! Golf outrights are unlike anything else in betting. In no other sport do we consistently and exclusively look at bets that are 10-1 at best and more often than not closer to 100-1. One consequence […]

PGA DFS Hot Takes for the 2023 Wyndham Championship
One of my favorite yearly mini-Tour stops was at Sedgefield CC — the Dye course, not this one. The one for this week’s Wyndham Championship is a Donald Ross course (not a bad place, this Sedgefield CC). Does this week make me a bit nostalgic for the summers I spent on the road from one […]
