Maverick McNealy A Dart Throw At Pebble Beach
11 months agoThanks to his T37 finish at the Farmers Insurance Open last week, Maverick McNealy earned enough FedExCup points to play the remainder of the season out of the Major Medical category. At a near-minimum $6,200 price on DraftKings, fantasy managers should be licking their chops to roster him this week. McNealy is a California kid and always plays his best golf in his home state, and Pebble Beach has been no exception to that narrative. He withdrew in the third round of this event last year, but his previous three years included a T5, a solo runner-up finish, and a T33 in 2022 where he uncharacteristically lost close to a stroke on the greens. McNealy enters this year's tournament ranking 17th in scrambling and fourth in putting on Poa greens over the last 36 rounds, both categories which have traditionally been involved in the recipe for success at Pebble Beach. McNealy is worth the risk for fantasy managers this week and should have plenty of scoring opportunities over the course of four guaranteed rounds.
