It has been nearly one month since we last saw Justin Rose hit a golf shot. He missed the cut at the U.S. Open with a pair of 77s; the third one out of his last four starts. Ball striking has been bad in all aspects, but particularly off the tee, where the 44-year-old ranks 151st in strokes gained off the tee (-0.358) from a lack of both distance and accuracy. That also carries over to the long irons, where Rose doesn't rank very favorably in terms of proximity to the hole. At $9,700 on FanDuel, there is nothing to suggest that the 10x PGA Tour winner will be a DFS asset this week.

Making his first career appearance this week in the Scottish Open, Jake Knapp is a player who checks a ton of boxes required to find success in North Berwick. He hits it a mile off the tee and is one of the more proficient long iron players this season. The former UCLA Bruin ranks 23rd in driving distance (311.4), 26th in proximity from beyond 200 yards (48' 4), and 38th in 3-putt avoidance (2.29%). The 31-year-old also ranks 20th in strokes gained putting (+0.362), but the putting surfaces this week differ in grass types and speed so much compared to normal PGA Tour events, which could make incoming putting stats hard to trust. Nevertheless, Knapp is a smash play at $9,000 on FanDuel.

Despite a T4 finish here in 2024, Sungjae Im still has a bad track record at The Renaissance Club with two missed cuts before that by fairly wide margins. Considering the way this season has gone, there is still plenty to be reserved about when determining when to get back on the train. He has failed to gain any strokes with his irons since April, and the putter has recently turned its back as well, losing strokes on the greens in five of his last six events. The driver is still an asset, along with the short game; however, Im isn't long enough to employ the bomb and gouge strategy. The 27-year-old is still too volatile of an option, especially at a place that doesn't allow him to utilize the few things in his game that are going well.

This season has undoubtedly been a weird one for Ludvig Aberg, who seems to spring up at random times and fall off just as everyone expects him to take off. From a statistical look, the short game has been the most costly part of his game. He's also hard-pressed to make putts at times, which isn't the best of combinations. However, this week in North Berwick should be a different story for the 25-year-old as he looks to build on his T4 finish from last year. The Renaissance Club plays right into the wheelhouse of the young Swede, who leads the tour in approach proximity from beyond 200 yards (44' 11) and ranks 13th in strokes gained off the tee (+0.507). Weather will play a huge factor in scores this week, and the nastier the better seems to fit Aberg's mold more at $11,600 on FanDuel.

Bud Cauley posted a T25 in his most recent start at the Travelers Championship, marking his sixth top-30 finish in his last 10 events. He'll look to keep that strong form going at the John Deere Classic, where he's made seven appearances, missed just one cut, and recorded three finishes of T18 or better. Success at TPC Deere Run requires strong tee-to-green play and accuracy off the tee, areas where Cauley has performed well. He ranks 22nd in strokes gained from tee to green (plus-0.798 per round), 50th off the tee (plus-0.226), and 16th on approach (plus-0.546), though he sits just 101st in driving accuracy. He also ranks in the 83rd percentile in proximity from 100–150 yards, a key range that made up 34.2% of all approach shots here last year. At $8,600 on DraftKings, Cauley can once again be trusted by fantasy managers this week.

Christiaan Bezuidenhout has struggled to find form this season, missing six cuts and posting just one top-10 finish through 18 starts. He'll look to rebound at the John Deere Classic, where he has competed twice, missing the cut in 2023 but finishing T2 in 2022. Success at TPC Deere Run requires solid tee-to-green play and accuracy off the tee, areas where Bezuidenhout has mixed results. He ranks 141st in strokes gained from tee to green (minus-0.378 per round), 155th off the tee (minus-0.433), and 139th on approach (minus-0.230), though he does rank 40th in driving accuracy. He's also in the 56th percentile in proximity from 100–150 yards, a key range that accounted for 34.2% of approach shots here last year. At $7,600 on DraftKings, this could be a potential bounce-back spot, but until he shows signs of life, Bezuidenhout is best left off fantasy rosters.

Jake Knapp posted a course-record 11-under 61 in the second round of the Rocket Mortgage Classic and ultimately finished T4 in Detroit. He'll look to carry that momentum into the John Deere Classic, where he has competed just once, finishing T52 last year. To succeed at TPC Deere Run, players need to be solid from tee to green and accurate off the tee. Knapp ranks 78th in strokes gained from tee to green (plus-0.216 per round) and 101st off the tee (plus-0.017), but he struggles with accuracy, ranking just 159th in that category. His approach play has been a strength, ranking 59th in strokes gained on approach (plus-0.203), and he sits in the 58th percentile in proximity from 100–150 yards, a key range that accounted for 34.2% of approach shots here last year. Knapp is riding momentum, and at $9,400 on DraftKings, he shapes up as a solid play for fantasy managers.
