Brooks Koepka a High-Upside Play at CJ Cup Byron Nelson
Chances are good that Brooks Koepka is pleased with how his 2026 season has fared thus far, and if not for a sick flat stick, it could be even better. However, things are looking a little more shaky as of late, with the iron play becoming a little more inconsistent lately than it was earlier in the year. He's still more than capable of providing solid weeks in this department, but the deeper dive shows much more of a struggle beyond 200 yards than there is before it. TPC Craig Ranch will give him a mix of both, as 175-225 yards is the predominant approach yardage this week. At an event with the birdie-fest stigma, it also helps that the 36-year-old is the seventh-ranked player this season in birdie-or-better rate on par 5s (55.56%). It's all about putting for Koepka this week, and while it may be hard to stomach on such a putter-centric venue, he's doing enough elsewhere to be a DFS option come Thursday.
