Brian Harman has flown under the radar in his last four starts, recording finishes of T25, T17, T32, and most recently T40 at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. He now turns his attention to The PLAYERS Championship, an event he has competed in 12 times. He's made the cut nine times, including four top-10 finishes -- highlighted by a T2 finish in 2024. To replicate that success at TPC Sawgrass, Harman will need to be solid from tee to green, where he currently ranks 68th on tour, gaining 0.399 strokes per round. He also ranks well in other key areas this week, including 51st in driving accuracy, and 93rd in strokes gained off the tee (0.033 per round). He's also in the 95th percentile in proximity from 150-200 yards, a critical range given that 30% of all approach shots at Sawgrass last year came from this distance. At $7,600 on DraftKings, Harman is a strong sleeper pick for fantasy managers this week.

Given everything we've seen from Min Woo Lee in early 2025 between TGL and regular tour events, it seems a little far-fetched to call him hard to trust, right? The correct answer would normally be yes; however, the way he's managed to reach the top of leaderboards is not what typically finds success at the Stadium Course. The Australian has only gained strokes on approach in one of his last four starts, most recently losing -6.7 strokes on approach during his two rounds before missing the cut at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. At $9,600 on FanDuel, Lee is a volatile player who can either shine like a superstar or self-destruct at any moment.

Last week at Bay Hill was a slight return to form for Sungjae Im, coming in T19 and ranking inside the top 20 in strokes gained putting, around the green, and off the tee. Unfortunately, his approach game struggled to get going, which has been a common theme for him in 2025. That will need to improve if he hopes to continue his decent run at TPC Sawgrass, but there are plenty of things to be optimistic about. His accuracy off the tee will give him plenty of opportunities to attack pins, and the comfortability hitting shots around the green and making putts on bermuda surfaces is some of the best on tour. While the 26-year-old is far from a must-play this week, certain qualities make it worth taking the risk.

Since posting a T12 finish at the Phoenix Open, Rasmus Hojgaard has missed the cut at the Genesis Invitational and finished T34 at the Mexico Open. He now shifts his focus to The PLAYERS Championship, an event he has yet to compete in. At TPC Sawgrass, players will need to be solid from tee to green, but especially accurate off the tee and on approach. Hojgaard ranks 117th in driving accuracy but is 58th in strokes gained off the tee, gaining 0.241 strokes per round. However, his struggles on approach have been evident, as he ranks 132nd, losing 0.198 strokes per round. Despite this, Hojgaard still ranks in the 76th percentile in proximity from 100-150 yards, a critical range given that 32.3% of all approach shots at Sawgrass last year came from this distance. Given his recent form and lack of experience at the course, fantasy managers may want to carefully consider their options before including Hojgaard in their lineups.

After finishing the Arnold Palmer Invitational with a T22, Max Greyserman has posted three straight top-25 finishes and looks to continue that momentum into The PLAYERS Championship, an event he has yet to compete in. At TPC Sawgrass, players will need to be solid from tee to green, but especially accurate off the tee and on approach. Greyserman has struggled off the tee, ranking 162nd in driving accuracy and 116th in strokes gained off the tee, losing 0.087 strokes per round. However, he has been strong on approach, ranking 42nd and gaining 0.411 strokes per round. Over the last 12 months, Greyserman also ranks in the 60th percentile in proximity from 100-150 yards, a critical range given that 32.3% of all approach shots here last year came from that distance. At $7,300 on DraftKings, Greyserman offers upside for fantasy managers, but his lack of experience at this course adds some risk.

Corey Conners was in the hunt on Sunday at the Arnold Palmer Invitational, but despite not registering any bogeys, he was unable to gain ground on the leaders, managing just one birdie on the day. He now looks to carry that momentum into THE PLAYERS Championship, an event he has competed in five times, making the cut in four of those appearances, including a T13 finish here last year. To replicate that success at TPC Sawgrass, Conners will need to be solid from tee to green, where he currently ranks 90th on tour, averaging 0.159 strokes gained per round. He has also been impressive off the tee, ranking 39th in driving accuracy and 61st in strokes gained off the tee (0.233 per round). Additionally, over the last 12 months, Conners ranks in the 83rd percentile in proximity from 100-150 yards, a range that accounted for 32.3% of all approach shots here last year. At $7,900 on DraftKings, fantasy managers can confidently rely on Conners in their lineups once again.

Keegan Bradley has been in excellent form to start the year, recording five top-15 finishes in his first seven events, highlighted by a 64 on Sunday at the Arnold Palmer Invitational -- including a record-breaking 29 on the front nine. Now he turns his focus to THE PLAYERS, where he has competed 13 times, making the cut eight times with two top-10 finishes. At TPC Sawgrass, players will need to be accurate off the tee and on approach, and Bradley ranks 61st in driving accuracy, 30th in strokes gained off the tee (0.403 per round), 25th in approach (0.926 per round), and is in the 93rd percentile in proximity from 100-150 yards over the past 12 months, a distance that made up 32.3% of all approach shots here last year. At a price of $7,700 on DraftKings, fantasy managers can confidently include Bradley in their lineups this week.

For a guy like Russell Henley, his win this past week at the Arnold Palmer Invitational was a game-changer. It may have been his fifth PGA Tour victory, but the size and importance of this win are far greater than the other four times he's lifted a trophy. The short game was on fire at Bay Hill, as he led the field in strokes gained around the green (+1.59) and was 10th in strokes gained putting (+0.91). Ball striking was fine, but approach numbers were slightly misleading due to a bad first round that featured 20+ mph winds. If the hangover isn't too great for the 35-year-old, there is little reason to doubt his game going into the PGA Tour's flagship event.

Since his win at the WM Phoenix Open, Thomas Detry has not had his best form. The incredible putting and iron play he used to win in the desert seems to have soured, as he has lost a combined -9.68 strokes between putting and approach play over his last two starts. The only thing he has been able to hang his hat on has been strokes gained off the tee, ranking 16th on the season (+0.542). However, that alone won't get the job done at TPC Sawgrass. Detry could be a worthwhile pick this week, depending on what player shows up to play. But, even at $9,000 on FanDuel, the perceived floor makes him hard to recommend.

For someone as deadly with his ball striking and, at times, the clutchest putter on the PGA Tour, Patrick Cantlay has struggled to find much to be happy about at TPC Sawgrass. His best finish is a T19 in 2023 by gaining over nine strokes ball striking, and is similar form with the irons heading into this week. Over his last three starts, Cantlay is averaging +1.23 strokes gained on approach. The performance off the tee hasn't been as hot, but then again, his last few outings have been much more driver-dependent than perhaps TPC Sawgrass is. There is certainly room to be skeptical of the 32-year-old this week, but it feels like the Stadium Course is a venue where he will scare a win or even get one eventually.

2025 is shaping up to be a resurgent year for Daniel Berger. The 31-year-old finished T15 last week at the API to continue a strong run over his previous four starts, resulting in nothing less than a top 25 finish and including positive strokes gained metrics across the board. While he has yet to get back into the winner's circle, he's certainly putting himself in the mix enough to expect it sooner than later. For a place like the Stadium Course, Berger is a prime candidate for success. He ranks 13th on the PGA Tour this season in bogey avoidance, 18th in driving accuracy (66.43%), and has impeccable proximity numbers with short irons and wedges. As long as the vibes stay high, keep playing him with confidence.

Rickie Fowler finished tied for 18th at the Cognizant Classic two weeks ago and has not missed the cut in any of his five tournaments this season. He is now focusing on preparing for The PLAYERS Championship this week, held at TPC Sawgrass. Historically, Fowler has performed well at this tournament, finishing tied for 68th in 2024 and tied for 13th in 2023. Over the past 12 months, Fowler ranks in the 63rd percentile for greens in regulation percentage on approach shots from 100-150 yards in the fairway. This is significant because at last year's The PLAYERS Championship, over 32% of approach shots came from this distance. Fowler could be a valuable addition to DFS lineups this week, but including him in your roster comes with some risk.

Harris English missed the cut at last week's Arnold Palmer Invitational and is now focusing on preparing for this week's The PLAYERS Championship held at TPC Sawgrass. In 2025, English has one win and one top-25 finish. His performance at The PLAYERS Championship has been mixed; he finished T19 in 2024 but missed the cut in 2023. Notably, over 32% of approach shots at last year's event came from 100-150 yards. Over the past 12 months, English ranks in the fifth percentile for greens in regulation percentage on approach shots from this distance in the fairway. Including English in DFS lineups this week carries some risk.

Wyndham Clark finished T22 at the Arnold Palmer Invitational last week, securing three top-25 finishes this season. He is now focusing on preparing for The PLAYERS Championship, which will be held at TPC Sawgrass this week. Clark has a strong history at this tournament, finishing tied for second in 2024, T27 in 2023, and missing the cut in 2022. Over the past 12 months, he ranks in the 67th percentile for greens in regulation percentage on approach shots from 100-150 yards in the fairway. This is particularly significant because, at last year's The PLAYERS Championship, over 32% of approach shots came from this distance. Clark could be a valuable addition to DFS lineups this week.
