Tommy Fleetwood in Great Form Heading to RBC Canadian Open
Tommy Fleetwood recorded his sixth top-10 of the season at the Memorial Tournament, finishing T4 while gaining more than 5.9 strokes around the greens. He looks to keep that momentum going at the RBC Canadian Open, where he has never finished worse than T21 in three appearances, albeit at different venues. Fleetwood sits 10th tee-to-green (+1.221), 25th off the tee (+0.419), and 59th on approach (+0.221). He has been the best player on tour around the greens, ranking first and gaining +0.580 strokes per round. The flat stick has also been working for Fleetwood as of late, gaining strokes putting in five of his last six events. He will be hunting his second career win this week and offers elite upside at $10,300 on DraftKings.

Corey Conners Offers Sneaky Value at RBC Canadian Open
Corey Conners has not been at his best this season, recording three top-25 finishes through his first 13 events. He looks to find something at the RBC Canadian Open, where he finished T27 at TPC Toronto last year. On the year, Conners sits only 106th in total strokes gained (-0.198), 38th on approach (+0.321), 126th in putting (-0.316), and 104th in driving distance, all important metrics at this course. However, he has been much better with precision play, ranking eighth in driving accuracy, and is in the 98th percentile in proximity from 100-150 yards, a distance that accounted for over 33% of approach shots here last year. If he can get anything going with the flat stick this week, Conners shapes up as a solid value play at $7,800 on DraftKings.

Luke Clanton Struggling Ahead of RBC Canadian Open
Luke Clanton has not had a strong season thus far, recording only one result inside the top 25 through 12 events. He looks to get something going at the RBC Canadian Open, where he missed the cut in 2025. TPC Toronto should demand length off the tee, as well as strong approach play and putting. Clanton sits 147th in total strokes gained this year (-1.060 per round), 153rd putting (-0.556), and 110th in driving distance. The one area of his game where he has been solid is on approach, ranking 40th and gaining +0.316 strokes a round. Another positive is that he is also in the 69th percentile in proximity from 100-150 yards, a distance that accounted for over a third of approach shots here last year. However, at $6,600 on DraftKings, he is still best left on the bench until he shows any signs of a turnaround.

Jacob Bridgeman Looking to Bounce Back at RBC Canadian Open
After being one of the hottest players on tour through March, Jacob Bridgeman has cooled off, recording six straight finishes of T33 or worse. He looks to get back on track at the RBC Canadian Open, where he finished T14 in 2024, albeit at a different course. TPC Toronto should demand length off the tee, combined with solid approach play and putting. Bridgeman sits 53rd on approach (+0.259), third putting (+0.722), and 61st in driving distance. He is also in the 95th percentile in proximity from 100-150 yards, a distance that accounted for over a third of approach shots here last year. At $8,100 on DraftKings, this presents a very solid bounce-back spot for Bridgeman.

Aaron Rai Continues Breakout Season at RBC Canadian Open
It was a commendable showing last week at the Memorial Tournament for Aaron Rai following his victory at the PGA Championship. The 31-year-old finished T19 at Muirfield Village, ranking 12th in strokes gained on approach (0.93) and 15th from tee to green (1.49). This level of ball striking always gives him the chance to be in contention. It's simply whether he can make the putts and get up-and-down when needed to keep rounds going. There's no reason to think he can't keep the strong finishes going this week in Canada. Play the Englishman with confidence.

Keith Mitchell Looks to Bounce Back at TPC Toronto
Keith Mitchell is coming off a missed cut at the Charles Schwab Challenge after finishing fifth at the Byron Nelson the week before. The difference was in the putting and short game, as he lost over four strokes on and around the greens at Colonial Country Club. He's making his second appearance at the RBC Canadian Open this week, where he finished T27 a year ago. Despite the inconsistency this season, his ball-striking is still among the best on tour. Mitchell is a potential opportunity for an ownership-leverage play with upside that should perform well at TPC Toronto.

Robert McIntyre Difficult to Trust at RBC Canadian Open
It's been a rough few months for Robert McIntyre out on the professional golf trail. Since his close call at the Valero Texas Open in April, he has failed to finish inside the top 40 in any start, with three missed cuts along the way. The iron play has fallen apart, as he's averaging -1.06 strokes gained on approach over his last six starts. The Scotsman has also lost strokes on and around the green in three of his last four events played. Even with the strength off the tee, there's nothing else to like about his chances at TPC Toronto.

Brooks Koepka Looks to Compete at RBC Canadian Open
Coming off a T14 finish in Texas a few weeks ago at TPC Craig Ranch, Brooks Koepka is inching ever closer to reaching the top 50 in the FedEx Cup standings. He's been one of the sharpest iron players this season, ranking fourth on the season in strokes gained on approach (0.754). Putting has been the one sore spot that continues to hold him back from really contending. The Florida State product has never competed in the Canadian Open, but last year's trends at TPC Toronto point more toward his ball-striking prowess than the reliance on putting. If Koepka can keep the ball in good playing positions off the tee, he should be worthy of DFS consideration this week.

Viktor Hovland is Back Inside The Ropes for RBC Canadian Open
It was strange not to have Viktor Hovland in the field at Muirfield Village, where he won in 2023. The 28-year-old has been bothered by a nagging neck injury all season, which is presumably why he decided to skip ahead to this week in Canada. He'll be making his first start since missing the cut at Aronimink. Hovland has proven the ability to pop off after weeks of inactivity, but missing a tournament as historical as the Memorial, a tournament he's won before, does show a level of concern that DFS players need to pay attention to. The approach play is plenty good enough for him to get around TPC Toronto, but the inability to hole putts or have consistency around the greens creates a scoring gap that will be difficult to overcome. For a player with such a high price tag, it's wise to wait for form to improve before taking a chance.

Alex Fitzpatrick Becoming a DFS Darling Ahead of RBC Canadian Open
It's been nice riding the wave of success that Alex Fitzpatrick has experienced over the last two months from a DFS perspective. A guy who many feel got an assisted tour card because of his win at a team event, but is steadily proving the doubters wrong with every start. The 27-year-old has three top 10s in his first four official PGA Tour starts, all of them in signature events. He's demolishing fields with his ball striking, where he ranked third in strokes gained from tee to green (2.46). It's only a matter of time before the putts fall, and he secures a victory on his own merit. This week's event at TPC Toronto asks similar questions to Muirfield, albeit with slightly less aggression and penalty. Given the current trajectory, Fitzpatrick is an easy DFS recommendation.

Wyndham Clark Looks to Continue Hot Streak at RBC Canadian Open
For much of the week at Muirfield, it looked like Wyndham Clark was on his way to winning back-to-back starts. It wasn't to be, as he fell one shot shy of the eventual playoff at -12 under. He led the field in strokes gained on approach (2.24) and ranked fourth around the green (1.28). If any putts had fallen over the middle rounds of his tournament, he would have likely run away with it. The difficulty is knowing if this level of play will continue or if it's simply catching lightning in a bottle. Clark was able to score at a venue known for penalizing rough despite missing nearly half of his fairways. That recipe won't always reward a chance to win the golf tournament. Next up is the RBC Canadian Open, where he finished T59 last season. Even with the last couple of results, he shouldn't be viewed as more than a worrisome play with upside.

Sam Burns is a DFS Must-Have at RBC Canadian Open
It was an extremely close call for Sam Burns on Sunday at the Memorial Tournament, as he shared the lead with a couple of holes to go before losing by two and finishing T4. There is little to be unhappy about, though, considering it was the most complete week of the season from a statistics perspective. The former LSU Tiger finished seventh in the field in strokes gained from tee to green (2.01), also ranking in the same position in strokes gained putting (1.10). He returns this week to TPC Toronto, where he finished runner-up a year ago. Considering how well the ball striking is compiled with the tremendous putting talent, Burns will be one of the most locked plays of the week.

Rickie Fowler Looks To Continue Resurgent Season At Memorial
Rickie Fowler is scheduled to tee it up at the Memorial this week. Fowler will look to rebound from a disappointing missed cut in the Charles Schwab Challenge in his most recent start. Despite the letdown at Colonial, the 37-year-old has put together an impressive 2026 campaign. Fowler has recorded four top-10 finishes this season. The veteran's overall record at Muirfield Village is a strong one. Twice a runner-up at the Memorial, he's totaled five top-10 finishes across 17 career starts, including a T7 in last year's edition. His experience and recent form put him squarely on the fantasy radar this week.

Gary Woodland Brings Boom-or-Bust Potential to Memorial
Gary Woodland bounced back nicely from a missed cut at the PGA Championship, recording a T6 at the Charles Schwab Challenge after gaining over 7.1 strokes putting. He looks to continue that momentum at the Memorial Tournament, where he has recorded two missed cuts and two top-25 finishes in his last four outings. Woodland currently sits 37th tee to green (+0.455), 60th on approach (+0.216), but sits 154th around the green, losing -0.390 strokes per round, all key areas this week. He continues to be one of the longest hitters on tour, ranking third in driving distance, but he could find some trouble on a layout that rewards playing from the short grass. Woodland sits just 104th in driving accuracy, but he can make up for it with his long-iron play, where he is 39th in proximity from over 200 yards, a range that accounted for over 33% of approach shots here last year. He will need to sharpen up his wedges, but at $7,300 on DraftKings, he is worth a flier in DFS lineups.

Jordan Spieth Still Searching for a Breakthrough
Jordan Spieth continued his solid yet lackluster season with his eighth top-25 result at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson, finishing T19. He looks to finally break through at the Memorial Tournament, where he has nine top-20 results in 13 appearances. Players will be tested in all aspects of their game from tee to green this week, with an emphasis on approach and around-the-green play. Spieth sits 49th in strokes gained tee to green (+0.372), 69th on approach (+0.148), and 65th around the green (+0.095). His sporadic driver and long irons continue to be an issue, as he sits 90th in driving accuracy and only 133rd in proximity from over 200 yards, a distance that accounted for over 33% of approach shots here last year. Despite this, Spieth still offers very high upside at a course where he has found a ton of success, making him an intriguing play at just $7,900 on DraftKings.
