Thomas Pieters Offers Little Upside At The Open

Thomas Pieters is likely entering The Open with some confidence, following his T6 finish at LIV Golf London two weeks ago. It was his best performance and first top-10 finish since joining LIV back in February. But fantasy managers shouldn't expect similar results for the Belgian native and world No. 73 at Royal Liverpool this […]

Si Woo Kim A Potential Value At Hoylake

Si Woo Kim has been a boom-or-bust option as of late, but statistics are pointing to a boom at The Open this week. Over the last 50 rounds, Kim enters the field ranking eighth in driving accuracy and inside of the top 20 in the key approach proximities of 175-200 yards and 200-225 yards. He […]

Min Woo Lee A Player To Avoid At The Open

Min Woo Lee has been a popular golfer for fantasy managers this year.

But Lee […]

Tony Finau Seeking A Return To Form At Royal Liverpool

It hasn't been pretty for Tony Finau since his win at the Mexico Open back in April. In his six starts since that victory, he's missed two cuts and has yet to post a top-20 finish. His putter has been ice-cold during that stretch, as he's lost over two strokes on the green in five […]

Wyndham Clark A Solid Option At The Open

Sungjae Im Tough To Trust At Hoylake

Sungjae Im appears to be an excellent course fit at Royal Liverpool from a statistical perspective.
