The Model Maniac

435 articles

A South African native living the American dream. I played college golf in Iowa where I spent four years playing and two coaching, while grabbing 3.5 finance related degrees along the way. As my twitter handle suggests, I am obsessed with my very own excel model. Tournament long matchups are my favorite bet and I love nothing more than a Sunday golf sweat.

Round 2 PGA DFS Showdown Slate Picks - 2024 Texas Children's Houston Open

We have 3 rounds of golf left at the Texas Children's Houston Open and Scottie Scheffler is already +120 to win the tournament. Wyndham Clark sits five shots back of Scheffler and is double the odds to finish top five. We are in some seriously unchartered territory with Scheffler right now. I guess we should […]

Breaking $100 - Free PGA Betting Picks - Golf Best Bets for the 2024 Valpsar Championship

Scottie Scheffler is a cheat code when the putter works and when it doesn't, well, he can still win golf tournaments. The guy tweaked his neck and then was taped up like Jason Kelce and still managed to win a golf tournament of the highest demands. Despite doing the back-to-back piggyback, winning back-to-back tournaments in […]

PGA DFS Picks - Round 4 Showdown For 2024 PLAYERS Championship

We should have a three-horse race for the winner of the PLAYERS Championship, with Xander Schauffele sitting in first at -17, Wyndham Clark in second at -16, and Brian Harman a shot back at -15. Fourth place has two golfers tied at -13 which is four shots off Xander, who Harman or Clark will be […]


Round 3 PGA DFS Showdown Slate Picks - 2024 PLAYERS Championship

The cut has been made and Wyndham Clark has been a cut above the field so far, sitting four shots clear of 2nd after a pair of 65s see him at -14 for the event. Nick Taylor and Xander Schauffele sit in second and will be looking to chase down Clark who leads the field […]

Breaking $100 - Free PGA Betting Picks - Golf Best Bets for the 2024 PLAYERS Championship

Scottie Scheffler has learnt how to putt, or so it seems. As a result we have got some really good odds down the board to lean into. So much so that we have 10 outrights going this week. If Scheffler returns to planet earth and just finishes inside the top-10 like we have come to […]

This article has been ... remodeled a little. For me, it is so much easier to share my model that has information for all the golfers, compared to just screenshots of the top 20 of each category. It's a win-win situation, as you get more info and I save tons of time. If there is […]

Round 3 PGA DFS Showdown Slate Picks - 2024 Arnold Palmer Invitational

Will Zalatoris sits one shot back of the lead in solo seventh. We have six golfers tied for the lead, five of them major winners. Scheffler, Clark, Lowry, Matsuyama, Harman have all won a massive event in the last few years. Russell Henley leads the field in strokes gained putting as the sixth golfer atop […]


Round 2 PGA DFS Showdown Slate Picks - 2024 Arnold Palmer Invitational

Shane Lowry decided that he wanted to give himself another opportunity to have a final round meltdown, leading the field at -6 at the close of round 1. He seems to really like Florida golf, at least through the first three rounds. Hideki Matsuyama sits in T2, using his amazing feel around the greens to […]

Another week, another long shot winner in the form of 160-1 Austin Eckroat. These long shots are making me want to take shots ... of very strong alcohol. This has been such a wild start to the season as hitting Knapp in Mexico at 40-1 was the shortest winner in the first two months of […]

PGA DFS Picks- Round 4 Showdown For 2024 Cognizant Classic

Shane Lowry gained +4.4 strokes on approach today, which is his third best iron display since 2017, where my database begins. It is also only the third time he has eclipsed four strokes on approach in that span. Lowry does however, own the 30th best singular round of approach in Data Golf's history tool, gaining […]


Round 3 PGA DFS Showdown Slate Picks - 2024 Cognizant Classic

The top of this leaderboard is looks like we just hit the randomize button on the field. The first non-surprising name shows up in T6 where Shane Lowery, Rory McIlroy and Cameron Young frequent the leaderboard. Bud Cauley leads the Cognizant Classic field in only his second start since returning to the tour after a […]

The Honda Classic is likely looking down from above as the Cognizant Classic putt the metaphorical bumpers up alongside the fairways and greens, with today's round playing the second easiest in quite some time. The wind will be picking up tomorrow and hopefully the course starts playing like it has in the past. The general […]

Round 3 PGA DFS Showdown Slate Picks - 2024 Genesis Invitational

Jordan Spieth got disqualified for not signing the correct score in Round 2. Spieth remains one of the most polarizing players in the game, hitting death-defying shots from the edge of Pebble Beach cliffs, chipping balls in from just about anywhere, missing four footers once too often, and failing to add up a Par 3 […]

12 of the 15 most expensive golfers on the Round 2 showdown slate lost a total of 14.7 strokes putting today, with the best putting performance of the dirty dozen barely gaining +0.1 on the greens.
