Gary Woodland Riding Momentum Into Cadillac Championship
Gary Woodland has been playing inspired golf this season, highlighted by a win at the Houston Open and two other finishes of T14 or better. He'll look to keep it rolling at the Cadillac Championship at Trump National Doral. Woodland has played here before, posting finishes of T29, T16, and T23, though those came between 2012 and 2015. His game still sets up well for the 7,700-yard Blue Monster, as he ranks second in driving distance, 59th on approach (+0.163 strokes per round), and 30th in putting (+0.410). He also sits 82nd in proximity from over 200 yards, a range that should be heavily in play this week. The only real concern has been his around the green play (154th), but with momentum on his side, Woodland offers strong value at just $7,400 on DraftKings.

Jordan Spieth Brings Boom-or-Bust Potential to Cadillac Championship
Jordan Spieth has posted solid results this season, with four finishes of T12 or better, but has yet to break into the top 10. He now looks to find something at Trump National Doral, where he has played three times, finishing T17 twice and T34. This should be taken with a grain of salt, given this has not been played on the PGA since 2016. Spieth's game is a decent fit here, ranking 45th on approach (+0.294 strokes per round), 27th putting (+0.423), and 43rd in driving distance. The biggest question mark remains off the tee, where he ranks 113th, losing -0.133 strokes per round and sitting 108th in driving accuracy. At $8,200 on DraftKings, Spieth is a tough player to trust in fantasy lineups, but he always carries tournament-winning upside.

Adam Scott Looks Poised for Another Strong Finish at Doral
With a T24 finish at the Masters, Adam Scott now has five top-25 finishes in his last seven events. Things seem to be clicking for the Aussie at the perfect time, as he is one of the few in the field with a strong history at Trump National Doral. Scott has five top-10 finishes here and a win in 2016 when the PGA Tour last played the Blue Monster. His game continues to fit the 7,700-yard test, sitting third in strokes gained on approach (+0.912 per round), 18th in driving distance, and fourth in proximity from 200+ yards, a range that will undoubtedly come into play this week. At $8,400 on DraftKings, Scott profiles as an elite option at a familiar course.

Maverick McNealy Needs Approach Game to Click at Doral
Maverick McNealy has put together a steady season, recording seven top-25 finishes through his first 10 events. He now looks to keep it rolling at the Cadillac Championship at Trump National Doral. The 7,700-yard Blue Monster should favor players with length off the tee, strong long-iron play, and the ability to convert on the greens. McNealy ranks 22nd in total strokes gained (+0.970 per round), 26th in putting (+0.430), and 49th in driving distance. The main concern has been his approach play, where he ranks 95th, losing -0.040 strokes per round, including losing strokes in five of his last six tournaments. As long as he can put together a decent week on approach, McNealy profiles as a high-upside option at $8,800 on DraftKings.

Harry Hall's Volatility Continues at Cadillac Championship
Harry Hall has been a quintessential boom-or-bust player this year, recording four top-25 finishes to go along with four missed cuts. This includes a stretch of eight straight starts losing strokes off the tee, though he still sits 54th in total strokes gained per round (+0.378), thanks to gaining +0.847 per round around the green and putting. At Trump National Doral, length will be key given the course's 7,700-yard layout. Hall is only 103rd in driving distance and 133rd in proximity from 200+ yards, a range that will certainly come into play this week. At $7,400 on DraftKings, Hall will once again need to rely on the short game, but he does not project as a reliable fantasy option until he finds some consistency in the rest of his game.

Tommy Fleetwood Looks to Rebound at Trump National Doral
Tommy Fleetwood has four top-10 finishes this season, though his recent form has dipped, with a T33 and T52 in his last two starts. He now looks to get back on track at the Cadillac Championship at Trump National Doral. The 7,700-yard Blue Monster should reward length off the tee, strong long-iron play, and the ability to convert on the greens. Fleetwood has been solid overall, ranking 20th in total strokes gained (+1.085 per round) and 42nd on approach (+0.323), but the putter has held him back, sitting 108th (-0.190). He also isn't long off the tee (121st in distance), but this is somewhat offset by how accurate he's been, ranking ninth in driving accuracy. There's still plenty of upside here, but it likely comes down to whether the putter shows up and if he can clean up the recent approach play struggles.

Pierceson Coody a Risky Value Play at Cadillac Championship
Pierceson Coody started the year hot with five finishes of T18 or better through his first six events, but has since cooled off, with just one top-20 finish over his last five starts. He now looks to get back on track at the Cadillac Championship. The 7,700-yard Blue Monster should reward length off the tee, strong long-iron play, and the ability to convert on the greens. Coody ranks 25th in strokes gained on approach (+0.451 per round), 84th in putting (-0.015), and 44th in driving distance. He has also been very strong on long approach shots, sitting 14th in proximity from 200+ yards, a range that will certainly be in play this week. The main concern is his short game, where he loses nearly half a stroke per round, combined, around the green and putting. At $7,300 on DraftKings, he profiles more as a dart throw than a reliable option in fantasy lineups.

Akshay Bhatia Offers Upside with Risk at Cadillac Championship
Akshay Bhatia has put together a strong season so far, with six finishes of T16 or better mixed with three missed cuts through his first nine events. He now looks to keep it going at the Cadillac Championship, which poses a true tee-to-green test at Trump National Doral. The 7,700-yard Blue Monster should favor players who have length off the tee, strong long-iron play, and the ability to convert on the greens. Bhatia ranks seventh in total strokes gained (+1.515 per round), 10th on approach (+0.720), fifth in putting (+0.792), and 97th in driving distance. He also sits 65th in proximity from over 200 yards, a range that should be well in play this week. Bhatia has either finished inside the top 20 or missed the cut in every event this season, and even in a no-cut format, he still profiles as a boom-or-bust option for fantasy lineups.

Justin Thomas a Scary Proposition at Cadillac Championship
Coming off a poor showing as the defending champion at the RBC Heritage, Justin Thomas makes his way to a difficult Trump National Doral in search of any consistency he can find. The 32-year-old has found little momentum in ball striking and putting, and ranks well outside the top 100 this season in all three strokes gained metrics. He also averaged -0.67 strokes around the green at Harbour Town, which was the first negative output in this area all season. With a difficult test awaiting him at the PGA Tour's return to the Blue Monster, Thomas isn't showing many signs that justify DFS consideration. Even aside from the hassle from tee to green, this property is littered with places that can bring about making big numbers, which the former Crimson Tide golfer is no stranger to making.

Scottie Scheffler The Leading Favorite at Cadillac Championship
As if he wouldn't have been already, the surprising number of players skipping the year's fifth Signature Event places Scottie Scheffler as the unequivocal favorite among this week's field at Trump National Doral. He's finished in solo-second (one in a playoff) in his last two starts, and it's only a matter of time before he finds the winner's circle again. His strokes gained on and around the green at Hilton Head were the highest output from both metrics all season, averaging a combined 2.11 over the four rounds. The ball striking is still the only part of the 29-year-old's game that needs better consistency, which will likely also figure itself out soon. It may be a bit difficult to reach his pricetag, but if it's possible, Scheffler is a must-play.

Collin Morikawa Still a Smash Play at Cadillac Championship
Despite the lingering concern for the back issue that kept Collin Morikawa out for a couple of events last month, he returned at The Masters to finish inside the top 10, and then he secured a top-five finish at Hilton Head the following week. Other than being tentative off the tee, the rest of the 29-year-old's game has remained virtually unchanged. He remains the leading player on the PGA Tour in strokes gained on approach (1.136), and has steadily gotten more comfortable around the greens. As long as there can be a little more freedom with the driver this week, the Cal-Berkley alum is a definite smash play.

Viktor Hovland Showed at Augusta He Can Finish Well
Viktor Hovland answered a few questions at the Masters Tournament. The golfer from Norway scored a 67 on that Sunday to end up T-18. His PGA season started in February and expectations have been high but Hovland has shown potential to deliver. He has seven wins on the PGA Tour and has had several high profile close calls at majors. Hovland's biggest struggle in 2026 may be those final rounds. His weekend at the RBC Heritage was not pretty (73-76). Too many missed putts along with several errant approaches on Sunday dashed any hopes of contending. Averaging 29 putts per Round 4 remains troubling (120th). A longer course like the Blue Monster of Doral could be another challenge accepted for the Norwegian.

Sepp Straka Attempting to Finish Better in Miami
Sepp Straka has enjoyed a good 2026 for the most part. The Austrian golfer has four Top 25 results including a T-2 at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. That was also only one of two times in 2026 where Straka ended up 69 or better during a final round. Since then, he has struggled with Sundays especially at the Masters Tournament and RBC Heritage (76-78). One of the bigger problems was errant shots. The other was missed putting opportunities. Putts per round on Sunday ballooned to a 30.29 average (158th). Longer putts have always been an issue but a 1.74% conversion rate at 25+ feet ranks 161st. The Blue Monster at Doral could make Straka attractive for DFS purposes especially early in the event.

J.J Spaun Enduring Roller Coaster Start to 2026
J.J. Spaun has seen his ups and downs in 2026. The American golfer won the Valero Texas Open to start the month of April. Spaun shot four rounds in the 60's with a 66-67 propelling him to victory. Since then, he missed the cut at the Masters Tournament. After that, Spaun cracked the Top 25 (T-25) at the RBC Heritage. The Valero represented Spaun's best effort of the 2026 season as he gained 3.36 strokes. Putting has been a problem where the golfer has only gained strokes twice in 10 events. This is in stark contrast to 2025 where Spaun putted well enough. In 2026, he ranks 158th losing 0.621 strokes. A big reason for his below average starts is putts per round (29.9) during Rounds 1 and 2. That makes Spaun a volatile DFS option at best this week.

Min Woo Lee Seeks to Make Adjustments at Cadillac Championship
Min Woo Lee was enjoying great form as April started. The Australian golfer ran into a rough stretch starting with the Masters Tournament where he lost 3.34 strokes overall. One of the more underrated metrics that caused a red flag was putting. This had been a strength for the golfer but Lee had dropped strokes in two straight events. Driving distance ranks 12th at 316.1 yards with a respectable 61.65% accuracy (51st). Staying out of trouble will be vital for Lee. Fortunately, the no-cut event helps and may allow the golfer to be a DFS and betting option as the weekend moves along.
