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 cuts and has zero finishes inside of the top-25. Perhaps even more alarming, the ball-striking that led him to a handful of solid finishes in his first two seasons has fallen off of a cliff, as he's lost strokes in that category in eight consecutive starts. However, despite not being overly predictive in terms of course history, it is hard to ignore Riley's performances at Innisbrook the last two years. He lost in a playoff to Sam Burns to finish solo second place in 2022, and followed that up with a T19 in 2023 where he gained over three and a half strokes ball-striking and four strokes putting. Riley may come with an ownership discount based on recent form, but he'll certainly be a risky click for fantasy managers this week.--Ryan Hickey
