Golfers to Land in the Top 65 of the Field for All Categories

Very short list this week. I am interested to see where ownership lands for a handful of these choices since the safety marks are substantially lower than the upside. I always like large-field targets that fit the mold.

 

Fantasy Golf Lineup Picks for DraftKings (PGA DFS)

We have tons of great weekly PGA articles, DFS analysis, tools, and DFS advice. Be sure to read our other fantastic articles regarding this week's event.

 

High-Priced DraftKings DFS Players 

***There are six players priced above $10,000. Please remember that my DFS article is always a first look at the field. Opinions might shift as the week goes on, and I am more than happy to discuss anyone further on Twitter/X.

Sungjae Im ranked first in my model over his past 10 starts in 'Weighted Form,' posting five top 12 finishes since the Memorial. We also got a "Course History" mark that provided an average finish on the leaderboard of 11th through his last five appearances at Sedgefield and a 'Statistical Total' that saw him in the top 10 of all seven categories I weighed.

I don't believe the narrative of players coming overseas from the Olympics and playing this event is as prominent as some people will tell you in the space. However, it doesn't hurt that Im will be fresh after not playing since we know that the travel answer has affected him in the past.

I'd expect Sungjae to carry a great deal of ownership because of his top-end grade in all areas of the board, but it is hard to ignore him at what looks to be a reduced price tag.

Mid-Priced DraftKings DFS Players

$9,000 Range

This section has a ton of name recognition that will carry ownership, but my preferred target would be Brian Harman. I know... what a shocker to everyone who follows me.

I felt as if this was the first week in a while that I had some massive deviations compared to the market when diving into proper pricing on the board,

Harman has left much to be desired over his past two attempts at the property, posing a missed cut and 71st-place result. Still, his second-place output for Weighted Strokes Gained Total, first for Projected Strokes Gained at Easy Courses and second when comparing this course to other venues, was what I wanted to see for a golfer to reach his maximum potential.

Like Sungjae, I am sure it will come with some popularity, but we can cross that bridge when more information enters the market.

 

Mid-Priced DraftKings DFS Players

$8,000 Range 

When I am lower on the $9,000 section, it is natural that much of the value pushes into the $8,000s or upper $7,000 range.

Aaron Rai is going to be the most popular option and will likely rival anyone outside of Sungjae Im for the top-owned return on the slate. However, the flip of that answer will come into play when we talk about Christiaan Bezuidenhout. (Keegan Bradley also). 

You can add any of the positive values within my model (upside rank included), but what I liked most about Bezuidenhout is that most people will bypass playing him after traveling from the Olympics to this week's event.

The South African ranked first in my model for Weighted Strokes Gained Total because of his top-50 grades across the board for all four categories, including a short-game output that placed behind only Brendon Todd, Mackenzie Hughes, Denny McCarthy and Maverick McNealy.

Can the driver and irons be good enough for him to win? That remains to be seen, but the fact that he ranked 10th in recent strokes gained data and sixth for similar courses was an encouraging sign that the market may have opened up too low on him Monday morning.

 

Low-Priced DraftKings DFS Players to Consider ($7,000+)

Check out my model for everything in this section. There, you will get individual rankings on all players and be able to weigh the data to create your very own model when you make a copy. Please consider signing up for this tool that I am very proud to share with the public!

This section offers tons of value. As I said a second ago, this is what happens when you lack value in the areas above.

There is probably a better contrarian route to discuss than something that is going to render popularity, but I have convinced myself that Eric Cole is the third favorite to win this golf event (behind Sungjae Im and Brian Harman).

Cole has been a massive disappointment in 2024 after an amazing 2023 season that won him Rookie of the Year. That has left most gamers hesitant until recently to jump back into the fray. However, my model has started coming back around to him after ranking fourth for Weighted Strokes Gained Total, seventh when faced with a Donald Ross venue and 17th for Expected Proximity.

I know that 17th place rank might not sound overly encouraging, but it is attached to a 54th-place expectation elsewhere, yielding a 135th-place GIR mark when not faced with Sedgefield Country Club.

If those irons can succeed here, his increase to 43rd for Fairways Gained at similar courses does the same for his ball-striking answers.

Cole is worth a shot at 70/1 in the outright market.

 

$6,000 Options to Consider

Ben Silverman has quietly made eight cuts in a row, producing seven of those finishes inside the top 40 of the field. 

I thought Silverman was the most mispriced option on the board in this $6,000 range.

Here were the top five:

 

Favorite Play Each Section (Monday):

$10,000+ - Sungjae Im
$9,000+ - Brian Harman
$8,000+ - Christiaan Bezuidenhout
$7,000+ - Eric Cole
$6,000+ - Ben Silverman

 

Fade In Each Section (Wednesday):

I will update this when ownership shows up in 24-48 hours

$10,000+ - 
$9,000+ -
$8,000+ -
$7,000+ -
$6,000+ -
