About Ryan Hickey - RotoBaller
Andrew Novak Will Be Chalk At Houston Open
Andrew Novak will be a popular selection at the Houston Open, and rightfully so. The second-year Tour pro posted an impressive T17 finish at a difficult Copperhead Course last week, and he rattled off three consecutive top-10 finishes prior to his missed cut at The Players Championship before then. And while there is no course... Read More
Greyson Sigg A Volatile Option At Innisbrook
Don't believe anyone who tells you they have figured out a solid strategy for rostering Greyson Sigg in Daily Fantasy Golf. The 29-year-old University of Georgia alum is in his third season on the PGA Tour, and he has almost as many missed cuts to his name as he does top-25 finishes. This season is... Read More
Davis Riley A Potential Course Horse For Valspar
Fantasy managers will face a tough decision on whether or not to roster Davis Riley this week. He earned his first Tour victory with partner Nick Hardy at the Zurich Classic back in April of 2023, but his form since then has left plenty to be desired. In those following 24 events he's missed 13... Read More
Alexander Bjork A Risky Option At Valspar
Alexander Bjork was on fire on the DP World Tour last year. The 33-year-old Swede racked up nine finishes inside of the top-10, and an additional five finishes inside of the top-20, in just 23 starts in the 2023 calendar year. Unfortunately, those results haven't quite carried over to the PGA Tour this season. Bjork... Read More
Stay Away From Garrick Higgo At Valspar
Fantasy managers should pay close attention to Garrick Higgo news leading up Thursday tee times. The 24-year-old South African withdrew in the second round of The Players Championship last week due to a wrist injury, and it wouldn't be a surprise to see him withdraw from the Valspar Championship as a result. Even if he... Read More
Bud Cauley Looking To Make Third Consecutive Cut
Bud Cauley will be making his third PGA Tour start following a three-plus year layoff following injuries stemming from a car accident. Impressively, he made the cut in his previous two starts, including a 65th-place finish at the WM Phoenix Open and a T21 at the Cognizant Classic. He's also reportedly had the upper hand... Read More
Matt Wallace Seeking Another Top-10 Finish At Innisbrook
Matt Wallace found himself in top form on the DP World Tour in the second half of the 2023 calendar year. The 33-year-old Brit racked up four top-10 finishes in his final eight starts, culminating with a T2 finish at the DP World Tour Championship in November. Unfortunately, those results haven't been replicated on the... Read More
Shane Lowry On Fire Ahead Of Players Championship
Shane Lowry is heating up just in time for the largest purse on Tour. The 36-year-old Irish star has been knocking on the door for his third PGA Tour victory, coming off back-to-back top-5 finishes at the Cognizant Classic and Arnold Palmer Invitational. While he couldn't quite close the deal despite having a share of... Read More
Russell Henley A Player To Watch At TPC Sawgrass
Russell Henley will likely be a popular golfer for fantasy managers this week, and rightfully so. The 34-year-old tour veteran has made the cut in all seven of his starts this season, including four top-15 finishes and a T4 finish at the difficult Arnold Palmer Invitational last week. He has also posted back-to-back top-20 finishes... Read More
Tom Kim A Risky Option For The Players Championship
Tom Kim's recent poor form will likely keep fantasy managers away from him this week, as a course as difficult as TPC Sawgrass is typically not a spot for a golfer to turn his game around. The 21-year-old South Korean star is coming off of back-to-back middling performances in the Florida Swing, finishing T62 at... Read More
Keegan Bradley Looks To Continue Solid Play
Keegan Bradley jumped another two spots to OWGR No. 13 thanks to his T36 result at the challenging Arnold Palmer Invitational last week. That marked his seventh made cut in eight Tour starts this season, a stretch of golf that has included four top-20 finishes and a runner-up showing at the Sony Open in January.... Read More
Adam Scott Looks To Bounce Back At TPC Sawgrass
Adam Scott was a huge letdown for fantasy managers last week. The Australian veteran was a highly-touted option heading into the Arnold Palmer Invitational on the heels of seven-straight top-20 finishes, but failed to make the cut at the challenging Bay Hill. That performance will likely keep Scott's ownership low, and fantasy managers may want... Read More
Emiliano Grillo Offers Upside At The Players Championship
Emiliano Grillo is off to a solid start this season and continues to reward fantasy managers choosing to roster him over the last few months. The 31-year-old Argentinian enters the week on the heels of eight consecutive made cuts, and he's posted six top-25 finishes in just 12 starts so far this season, including a... Read More
J.T. Poston Underpriced For Arnold Palmer Invitational
J.T. Poston was a bit of a disappointment for fantasy managers last week. The eight-year pro and current OWGR No. 40 survived the cut at the notoriously difficult PGA National but failed to make moves over the weekend en route to a 66th-place finish. Prior to that event, Poston was on a tear to start... Read More
Jason Day Looks To Stay Hot At Bay Hill
Jason Day could be in store for another big week at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. The Australian star is off to an excellent start in the 2024 calendar year, as he's made the cut in four out of five starts with three top-10 finishes to his name. The current OWGR No. 19 also has elite... Read More
Ben An Trending Up Ahead Of Bay Hill
Ben An is arguably in the midst of his best stretch of golf since joining the PGA Tour in 2016. The 32-year-old South Korean is coming into the Arnold Palmer Invitational on the heels of twelve-straight made cuts, during which time he has finished inside of the top-25 seven times and inside of the top-10... Read More
Keegan Bradley Eyeing Another Top-10 Finish At Bay Hill
Thanks to a hot start to the 2023-2024 Tour season, Keegan Bradley has climbed all the way up to OWGR No. 15.

Tom Hoge In Great From Ahead Of Arnold Palmer Invitational
Tom Hoge has put together a string of great performances in the 2024 calendar year and finds himself currently sitting at 14th place in the FedExCup standings. The 34-year-old TCU alum enters Bay Hill on the heels of six-straight made cuts, including two top-10 finishes in his last four starts. Notorious for his iron play,... Read More
Chris Kirk Looks To Defend Title At Cognizant Classic
Chris Kirk will be a popular pick for fantasy managers this week, and rightfully so. The 38-year-old PGA Tour veteran has been nothing short of remarkable in his last three starts here, with a T25 finish in 2021, a T7 finish in 2022, and a playoff victory over Eric Cole in last year's event. His... Read More
Alex Noren A Player To Watch At PGA National
Alex Noren should be catching the attention of fantasy managers at the Cognizant Classic. The 41-year-old Swede and OWGR No. 67 has been quietly playing solid golf and looks to be an excellent course fit for PGA National. He enters the week on the heels of nine-straight made cuts, including a T3 at the Shriners... Read More
Stephan Jaeger Closing In On First Tour Victory
Stephan Jaeger is arguably enjoying the best stretch of golf in his six-year PGA Tour career. The 34-year-old German hasn't missed a cut since the RBC Heritage back in April of 2023, and he's been littering the leaderboards with top-25 finishes ever since, including two T3 finishes in his last three starts. He has proven... Read More
Thorbjorn Olesen A Contender At PGA National
Based on early projections, it appears that Thorbjorn Olesen may go overlooked by fantasy managers this week. That could end up being a costly mistake, despite being surrounded by numerous high-upside golfers in DraftKings' $7,000-range. The 34-year-old Dane has been scorching hot on the DP World Tour, racking up six top-10 finishes in his last... Read More
Ryan Fox In For A Tough Week At PGA National
Ryan Fox has made a name for himself on the DP World Tour and currently sits at OWGR No. 41. But aside from a hot stretch of golf in September and early October last year, there isn't much to like about the 37-year-old New Zealander's game recently. His last three starts were all PGA Tour... Read More
K.H. Lee Slumping Ahead Of Mexico Open
There are a lot of question marks for K.H. Lee as tee times draw closer on Thursday. The 32-year-old South Korean has undoubtedly shown moments of brilliance throughout his seven-year PGA Tour career, but you wouldn't know it by looking at his recent scorecards. He enters the Mexico open on the heels of two consecutive... Read More
Carson Young A Potential Contender At Vidanta
Fantasy managers leaning heavily on driving distance this week will likely overlook Carson Young, and that could be a costly mistake. Long iron play will be equally important, and that is an area where the second-year pro excels. Over the last 36 rounds, Young finds himself outside of the top-100 golfers in driving distance, but... Read More
Matt Wallace Seeking PGA Tour Success At Mexico Open
Matt Wallace found himself in incredible form on the DP World Tour in the second half of the 2023 calendar year. The 33-year-old Brit racked up four top-10 finishes in his final eight starts, culminating with a T2 finish at the DP World Tour Championship in November. Unfortunately those results haven't been replicated on the... Read More
Scott Stallings In For a Tough Week In Mexico
Scott Stallings seemingly came out of nowhere to finish T2 at the Sanderson Farms Championship back in October. Aside from that event, it has been ugly for the OWGR No. 119. He hasn't finished inside of the top-25 since the WM Phoenix Open in February of 2023, and he's missed the cut in over 50... Read More
Si Woo Kim Heating Up Ahead of Riviera
Fantasy managers putting a heavy weight on course history this week will surely skip over Si Woo Kim. In his last three starts at Riviera Country Club, the South Korean star has two missed cut to go along with a 73rd place finish. But the year of the long shot has taught us that anything... Read More
Denny McCarthy Leaning On Short Game At Riviera
Denny McCarthy has been a steady contributor as of late for fantasy managers. The OWGR No. 43 has made the cut in all five of his starts this season with finishes of T5, T43, T24, T26, and T22. McCarthy likely would have been in line for an even better finish at last week's WM Phoenix... Read More
Rickie Fowler A Player To Avoid At The Genesis
Rickie Fowler gave golf fans a nice walk down memory lane during the 2023 season. The 35-year-old star flashed glimpses of his former self week-in and week-out, littering the leaderboard with top-20 finishes and even an outright victory at the Rocket Mortgage Classic. But Fowler has experienced a fall from grace in recent months, with... Read More
