Scottie Scheffler The Unanimous Favorite This Week In Scottsdale

Nothing is more evident than the fact that Scottie Scheffler is the one player everyone is expecting to go into the back nine on Sunday with a chance to win the golf tournament. His return to golf last week was a little rusty, but that didn't stop him from finishing in the top 10. Now […]

Hideki Matsuyama Looking For Bounce-Back Performance In Arizona

Things have continually regressed for Hideki Matsuyama since winning the Sentry a month ago. His latest outing at Pebble Beach saw the Japanese star lose strokes on approach for the first time in six months, which was a bit of a surprise, but his limited history there is not great anyway. That is thankfully not […]

Si Woo Kim Showing Some Form Heading Into Phoenix

It's been a rough go of things for Si Woo Kim in recent starts before a 12th-place finish at Pebble Beach last week. His efforts gained strokes in all metrics, which should give him momentum heading to TPC Scottsdale, where Kim has a long competition history (making his 10th career appearance). It's a shame his […]

Tom Hoge Looks To Keep The Momentum Going In Phoenix

Tom Hoge had a solid showing last week in Monterey. The 35-year-old continues to light up courses with elite iron play, gaining over 14 strokes on approach over his previous four starts. His weakness has been getting off the tee box as he ranks 168th on the young season in strokes gained off the tee […]

Austin Eckroat A Name To Watch For At WM Phoenix Open

After a rough two-week stretch, Austin Eckroat seemed to find some things in his golf game last week in Monterey. The 26-year-old ranked seventh in the field in strokes gained off the tee (+0.66) and 14th in strokes gained putting (+0.85). Both metrics are the two biggest contributors to total strokes gained at this event […]

Wyndham Clark Is Someone To Stay Away From This Week

After a solid showing at the Sentry to start the 2025 season, Wyndham Clark has struggled to find the same form in both of his starts since, missing the cut at the AmEx and finishing T73 at Pebble Beach. Nothing is clicking right now, as he has only gained strokes in one metric in each […]

Sam Burns Will Be A Big Play This Week But Comes With Risk

It's a difficult choice to fade a player like Sam Burns, who has two finishes outside the top 15 in his last eight starts. After all, he has become the type of player for whom it's easy to believe the strong form will continue, and it very well may. It is important, though, to be […]

Christiaan Bezuidenhout Looks To Turn Around Ball-Striking In Phoenix

It has been a slow start for Christiaan Bezuidenhout through his first three events of the young season. With two T40s and a missed cut, his play off the tee and on approach has severely hindered him thus far, averaging -0.603 in strokes gained on approach and an astounding -1.103 off the tee in that […]

Horse For The Course: PGA DFS Course History - 2025 WM Phoenix Open

The wild, wet, and windy nature of the Monterey Peninsula was on full display this past week as the PGA Tour returned to Pebble Beach for yet another battle on the shore that left the cream rising to the top. Rory McIlroy came alive after making the turn on Sunday with three birdies and an […]

Round 4 PGA DFS Showdown Slate Picks - 2025 ATT Pebble Beach Pro-Am

Hello RotoBallers, I am back with my round 4 Showdown article for the ATT Pebble Beach Pro-Am this week. Weather has been less than ideal over the first three rounds, with high winds and occasional rain testing most of the PGA Tour's top talent and their amateur playing partners. Sepp Straka holds a one-stroke lead […]

Horse For The Course: PGA DFS Course History - 2025 Farmers Insurance Open

It was an event full of haymakers at PGA West that resulted in Sepp Straka's third PGA Tour victory. Such an event, which requires 25+ birdies over four days is admittedly not the greatest golf spectacle, as one player tends to shine above the rest leaving Sunday to feel much more flat than I'm sure […]

Round 4 PGA DFS Showdown Slate Picks - 2025 American Express

The 2025 PGA Tour season has rolled into La Quinta, California, for the American Express at PGA West this week. Play through the first three rounds has been hot and heavy, with low scores being posted in abundance. Heading into the final round, it is Sepp Straka's tournament to lose as the 31-year-old has played […]

Will Zalatoris Looking To Keep Momentum Going At The AmEx

After a middle-of-the-road finish at The Sentry to kick off his 2025 campaign, Will Zalatoris comes to La Quinta, CA with his game in a seemingly good position. Nothing was spectacular about his week at Kapalua, but besides slightly losing strokes on approach (-0.29), he didn't lose strokes in any other metric. That wouldn't be […]

J.T. Poston A Volatile Player With Upside At American Express

After two strong tournaments to close out 2024 that included a victory in Vegas, J.T. Poston has struggled to get back in the swing of things in the new year with a T40 at The Sentry and a missed cut last week at Waialae. Mostly to blame has been approach play and putting (losing strokes […]

Justin Thomas Fits The AmEx Layouts Like A Glove

This will be the fourth time Justin Thomas tees it up in La Quinta, although, last year's event was his first time playing the current course rotation as his previous start was back in 2015. After firing a third-round, 61, he looked poised to capture his 16th career victory before the improbable win by then-amateur, […]

Wyndham Clark Looking To Keep Momentum Going At La Quinta

It's been a busy start to the season for Wyndham Clark, who finished T15 at The Sentry before flying across the country to lay the beatdown in the first TGL match last week. The former Oregon Duck is no stranger to hot starts in the early part of the year, as his victory at the […]

Sungjae Im Is A Hot Commodity At The American Express

As will be discussed by many fantasy golf pundits this week, Sungjae Im is a front-runner at PGA West as he possesses the most consistent performances at this event compared to any other player in the field. Sure, he hasn't finished better than a tie for 10th, but his worst finish is a T25 in […]

Brian Harman Leaking Oil As He Heads To PGA West

It was all smiles for Brian Harman last week at Waialae through the first three rounds. However, the left-hander struggled mightily on Sunday, losing 2.76 strokes on the greens and falling nearly 20 spots to leave a sour taste in our mouths coming into this week's event at PGA West. You can never discount the […]

Nico Echavarria An Intriguing Play Again This Week At PGA West

It has been an impressive run over the last several months for Nico Echavarria, as the Columbian star nearly captured his second PGA Tour victory last week at Waialae. But truthfully, he's given himself chances in almost every start since winning the ZOZO Championship in October of last year. On the greens is where Echavarria […]

Sam Burns A Popular Play At The American Express

Coming off a T8 finish at The Sentry at the top of the month, Sam Burns has seemingly picked right back up where he left off in 2024, where he notched two top fives and three top 15s down the closing stretch. He was inside the top 100 in all strokes gained metrics to end […]

Horse For The Course: PGA DFS Course History - 2025 American Express

The PGA Tour is moving back to the mainland after a couple of weeks on the islands of Hawaii. This week in La Quinta, CA, 156 players will tee it up at the famed PGA West and its associated facilities for the American Express. A tournament seemingly on the short-list of events that could go […]

Round 4 PGA DFS Showdown Slate Picks - 2025 Sony Open

Welcome back, RotoBallers, to the Round 4 DFS Showdown article. The young PGA Tour season made its way to Honolulu this week for the Sony Open, the year's first full-field event. After a record-setting first week at Kapalua, things are off to a hot start as players who weren't exempt last week gain their first […]

Taylor Pendrith Is A Dark-Horse Pick For Sony Open

Taylor Pendrith has been on a quiet tear for the last six months with a finish no worse than T19 (which was on the Japan Golf Tour). He kicked off his 2025 campaign last week in Kapalua with a T13 finish thanks to solid ball-striking numbers that ranked seventh in the field in strokes gained […]

Eric Cole Looking For Bounce-Back Performance At Sony Open

It was a week to forget at The Sentry for Eric Cole, as the 36-year-old averaged -0.68 strokes gained with the putter and -0.83 strokes gained on approach over his four rounds. Both are unusual struggles for Cole, who finished last season ranked 47th (+0.204) in strokes gained putting and 66th (+0.258) in strokes gained […]

Sahith Theegala A Big Name To Stay Away From At Sony Open

One of the more fruitful DFS players of 2024, Sahith Theegala is making the hour-long trip from Kapalua to Wailae to hopefully improve his T36 finish from last week. An opening round, 76 pretty much took his chances of a contention away early, but it was refreshing to see bounce-back rounds of 68-67-66 over the […]

Nick Dunlap Looks To Bounce Back At Sony Open

It was a disappointing start to the new season for Nick Dunlap, as the former University of Alabama golfer finished 55th at Kapalua last week and struggled to find any success on the Plantation Course. It's easy to forget he's still figuring out the PGA Tour venues given we haven't made it to the tour […]

Tom Kim Making Season Debut At Sony Open

It is time for Tom Kim to get back in the saddle for the 2025 season, having last played at the Hero World Challenge in December. The young South Korean is beginning his third season on the PGA Tour with hopes of improving upon his standings last year which saw his bogey-double-double collapse at TPC […]

Hideki Matsuyama Looks To Make History At Waialae

Off the heels of a historic performance last week at Kapalua, where Hideki Matsuyama set the all-time scoring record relative to par (35 under) in PGA Tour history, he'll have a chance to do something almost as improbable this week at the Sony Open: become just the third player in history to win both Hawaiian […]

Horse For The Course: PGA DFS Course History - 2025 Sony Open

It was a record-setting start to the new season last week at Kapalua, as Hideki Matsuyama set the PGA Tour scoring record relative to par (-35 under). Many of the players that competed at The Plantation Course have made the quick hour-long car trip to the eastern side of the island for the first full-field […]

Round 4 PGA DFS Showdown Slate Picks - 2025 Sentry Tournament

Hello Rotoballers! I hope everyone is doing well and ready for another great year of professional golf. Showdown is back for another season on DraftKings and the PGA Tour. So naturally, we are back to hopefully try and lead you in the right direction for those either looking to pick up where their escapade ended […]
