Russell Knox Plays Better At Difficult Courses

Russell Knox has historically played better at more difficult courses, and we think there are a few reasons for that being the case. For starters, Knox's lack of scoring and putting aren't as directly affected when the winning score is 10-under par or less. In a birdie shootout, those are two things that can quickly […]

Emiliano Grillo Thrived At PGA National When A Junior

Junior golf will always raise an eyebrow when it gets mentioned as being proof of a player having course history, but Emiliano Grillo has finished first in stroke play three times at PGA National as a junior. Grillo grew up playing during the 'Golden Age' of junior golf, facing the likes of Jordan Spieth, Justin […]

Billy Horschel Returns To Florida

Billy Horschel, who attended the University of Florida, will compete in this week's Honda Classic. Aside from his withdrawal at the Dell Technologies Championship in September, Horschel has made 13 consecutive cuts, including a pair of top 25s in 2019 and four top-eight showings to end 2018. Horschel has never been shy when it comes […]

Luke List Returns To Location Of His Best PGA Result

Luke List suffered a playoff loss last season to Justin Thomas at the Honda Classic. The American did just about everything right but was an unlucky loser after he was unable to eclipse Thomas in extra time. This season, List will head back to the scene of the crime in hopes that the result will […]

Jason Dufner Is A Dart Throw At The Honda Classic

Jason Dufner is a dart throw at the Honda Classic, but there are reasons to be optimistic that the American can randomly regain some form. It has been 17 tournaments since Dufner has posted a top-20 result, but when we look at courses that are difficult to score at and feature wind, the 163rd-ranked player […]

Dylan Frittelli Has Shown Course History In His Only Appearance

Dylan Frittelli posted an 11th place finish in his inaugural showing at PGA National last season. The result is promising for his chances this weekend, but it has also increased the South African's projected ownership. Frittelli is currently expected to be one of the more popular options under $7,500 on DraftKings. The 28-year-old does possess […]

Cameron Smith Is An Intriguing Pivot Option

Cameron Smith has been playing some of the best golf of his young career recently, making 18 consecutive worldwide cuts. Smith's victory at the Australian PGA Championship highlights his recent success, but it is far from the only notable result he has provided. If we exclude his win, the 24th-ranked player in the world has […]

Kyle Stanley Has Hit a Dry Spell

Kyle Stanley arrives at the Honda Classic off of a share of 58th place during last week's WGC-Mexico Championship. Stanley has struggled to begin 2019, failing to post a top-20 result to go along with three missed cuts out of five events. This week in Florida, the 40th-ranked player in the world will attempt to […]

Justin Thomas Attempts To Defend Title In Florida

Justin Thomas will head back to PGA National with hopes of defending his title at the Honda Classic. The American has been on fire since the new calendar season began at the Safeway Open, posting five top-16 results, which includes three consecutive top-nine finishes. Thomas' nine-under par round on Sunday during last week's WGC-Mexico Championship […]

PGA DFS: Vegas Report - Honda Classic

Welcome back to the PGA DFS: Vegas Report. Dustin Johnson captured his 20th career PGA Tour title at the WGC-Mexico Championship, outlasting second-place finisher Rory McIlroy by five strokes.

AAF Week 3 Fantasy Football Recap (Sunday Games)

Now that we are three weeks into the AAF season, some clear trends are starting to emerge. Orlando is the team to beat and clearly has the most fantasy assets on its roster. Atlanta is looking like an unmitigated disaster and Memphis isn't much better, although the QB  change to Zach Mettenberger could do wonders. […]

AAF Week 3 Fantasy Football Recap (Saturday Games)

I think we discovered a few new things during Week 3 of the AAF season, but many of the same elements that we have become accustomed to seeing held steady. Defensive lines continue to overpower the offensive lines, wide receivers are still dropping easy passes and most quarterbacks are struggling to find a rhythm. Only […]

Rory McIlroy Comes Up Just Short In Mexico

Since January of last year, Rory McIlroy has played his way into the last group of the final round eight times but has failed to emerge triumphant in any of those situations. On Sunday in Mexico, McIlroy continued that trend with a five-shot defeat to Dustin Johnson. The 29-year-old has been brilliant in his four […]

Dustin Johnson Wins WGC-Mexico Championship

Dustin Johnson captured his 20th career PGA Tour victory at the WGC-Mexico Championship. The big-hitting American became just the fourth player in the past 10 seasons to lead the field in both GIR and strokes gained putting (Jimmy Walker did it twice in 2015, and Jason Day did it once at the 2015 Barclays). The […]

RotoBaller NBA Recap: Kawhi Leonard Gets The Last Laugh

Welcome to the RotoBaller NBA Recap. In this feature, we highlight three fantasy basketball takeaways from last night's slate of NBA games. Friday featured a nine-game slate, but it was the Toronto Raptors versus San Antonio Spurs that "literally" stole the show. DeMar DeRozan and Kawhi Leonard were notoriously traded for one another during the […]

Can Bryson DeChambeau Solve for a Variable?

Golf's 'mad scientist' Bryson DeChambeau will try to "solve for E" this weekend in Mexico. "E" would stand for the 7,500 feet of elevation at Club de Golf Chapultepec. Balls will fly nearly nine percent further than they would at sea level, and DeChambeau's mind will be put to the test on trying to calculate […]

Justin Thomas Is The Favorite At Chapultepec

Justin Thomas has usurped, at least for one week, Dustin Johnson at the top of DFS boards this week in Mexico. Thomas' 11,800 price tag on DraftKings gives him a $300 edge over Johnson, and he is $700 clear of the third highest priced player in Rory McIlroy. The American has been sensational lately, recording […]

Jordan Spieth Has Epic Implosion On Sunday At Riviera

After contending for the first few days at the Genesis Open, Jordan Spieth had a meltdown of epic proportions on Sunday. Spieth shot a 10-over 81, but the result could have been even worse. The American holed four putts of over 10-feet for par on the day but still managed to lose an insane 3.607 […]

Tommy Fleetwood Quietly Posts Share of 28th Place

Tommy Fleetwood had a straightforward week at Riviera, posting a share of 28th place. The Englishman made par 50 times in his 72 holes but was undone by his putting on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, losing 2.361 strokes for the tournament on the greens -- good for 67th place in the field. This week, the […]

Rory McIlroy Posts Share of Fourth Place At Genesis Open

Rory McIlroy shot an 11-under par at the Genesis Open to conclude the event in a share of fourth place. The Irishman led the field in strokes gained off the tee and greens in regulation but was undone by his scrambling, finishing 41st overall. McIlroy will quickly be back in action at this week's WGC […]

Dustin Johnson Arrives To Mexico As The Second Choice

Dustin Johnson very rarely enters a tournament and isn't listed as the favorite, but that is precisely the situation he finds himself in this week at the WGC-Mexico Championship. The big-hitting American is 11/1 to capture the title in Mexico, which is a point behind Justin Thomas in the betting market. Johnson won the event […]

PGA DFS: Vegas Report -WGC Mexico Championship

Welcome back to the PGA DFS: Vegas Report. J.B. Holmes captured his fifth PGA Tour title at the Genesis Open, outlasting second-place finisher Justin Thomas by one shot. Holmes got off to a fast start on Thursday, shooting an eight-under 63, but that is about the only thing that the 36-year-old has ever done quickly. […]

AAF Week 2 Recap - Fantasy Risers, Fallers (Sunday Games)

The initial buzz of Week 1 excitement is gone, but Week 2 of the AAF season produced noticeably better football. The Orlando-San Antonio game was a barn burner that qualifies as the first candidate for AAF Game of the Year. We also saw our first 300-yard passer (Garrett Gilbert), 100-yard rusher (Zac Stacy) and 150-yard […]

AAF Week 2 Recap - Fantasy Risers, Fallers (Saturday Games)

Week 2 of the AAF season is officially in the books, and it did not disappoint.

AAF Week 1 Recap - Fantasy Risers, Fallers (Sunday Games)

We continue our coverage of the AAF (Alliance of American Football) with a recap from Sunday's action. To read about Saturday's games, click here. The AAF has been a success so far, outperforming the NBA showcase game ratings-wise on Saturday. Ultimately, the longevity of the AAF is going to come down to how user-friendly the […]

AAF Week 1 Recap - Fantasy Risers, Fallers (Saturday Games)

The opening weekend of the inaugural AAF season is officially in the books, and while I don't think the four games blew the roof off, the league displayed itself as a viable option for fans during the NFL offseason. There were multiple players unveiled as next level prospects, and it shows how difficult it can […]

Cameron Smith Looks For Another Quality Result

Cameron Smith finished the Genesis Open last season in a share of sixth place, but an even-par Sunday stunted his chance at leaving California with the title. The good news for the 25-year-old is that he will get another chance this season and enters the week with superb form. The 27th-ranked player in the world […]

Adam Hadwin Has Stellar Course History At Riviera

After a share of 18th place at the Pebble Beach Pro-Am, Adam Hadwin will quickly be back in action at this week's Genesis Open. Hadwin has provided four made cuts at Riviera Country Club, never finishing worse than 34th place. The Canadian's $7,800 price tag on DraftKings is affordable, but he is projected to be […]
