Optimizer with Contest Simulations
Our state-of-the-art PGA DFS optimizer lets you build lineups with ease using the same projections and ownership data that power our analyst exposures. But what truly sets it apart is our contest simulation technology.

Instead of just simulating each golfer’s performance, we simulate entire DFS contests tens of thousands of times, incorporating field-wide ownership, scoring distributions, and payout structures to evaluate your lineups holistically. The result: a detailed understanding of how likely your lineups are to:
- Finish in the top 0.1% or 1% of large-field GPPs
- Cash consistently in smaller field contests
- Generate positive expected ROI, even when projected points are similar
You’ll gain real answers to tough DFS questions — like whether two chalky golfers negatively correlate, how lineup constructions tell unique stories, and when it makes sense to eat chalk or get different.
The contest sims are fully integrated into our optimizer and only take a few clicks to run. No complex setup. No separate tool. Just a smarter, faster way to evaluate your builds — and a true edge over the field.
Expert Access in Discord

Proprietary Stats: xSG & Course Fit
Alex Blickle’s expected strokes gained (xSG) projections are a game-changer. These aren’t just public strokes gained numbers — they’re a proprietary blend of:
- Course Fit expected strokes gained, which measures how well a golfer’s strengths align with the layout of a given course
- Baseline expected strokes gained, a rolling average of player performance
The stronger the course fit model, the more xSG reflects it — giving you a powerful stat that adapts to each week’s unique setup.
You also get full access to course fit ratings, updated every week.
Split Stats from Josh Culp
Every week, Josh Culp publishes course-specific split stats, including grass splits, wind splits, comp course data, and more. These breakdowns help you understand which golfers tend to excel in similar conditions and why.
