Spencer takes on the creation that he and Byron Lindeque made named 'Mia The Model' for this year's Match Play Bracket Challenge!
As some of you may already know, Byron (@TheModelManiac) and I co-manage a model weekly that we have dubbed "Mia." Essentially, we input our results into the sheet and let the consensus of our numbers dictate percentages for the RotoBaller 'One & Done' contest.
It doesn't mean we always take our sheet's best player available or the top option. However, the randomizer filter incorporates a luck-driven approach to the draw, and I would like to pat ourselves on the shoulders for one second when we look at the impressive $8,459,086 total we have amounted over 10 events. At this point, it seems as if our incorporated numbers have created an OP variation that can't be stopped, which is why I chose to let her cool down from suffering a numerical overload and decided to import my win percentages for each group and let her do her magic.
As an example here, my numbers thought Scottie Scheffler had about 38% of the win probability in group one, all the way down to a little over 13% for Alex Noren, and I simulated each group five times and took the fifth result as the selection Mia wanted to go with for her bracket. Very similar to the stuff that we get weekly in the OAD contest.

Fantasy Golf Lineup Picks for DraftKings (PGA DFS)
We have tons of great weekly PGA articles, DFS analysis, tools and DFS advice. Be sure to read our other fantastic articles regarding this week's event.
Group 1
Strength - 7th Hardest
Mia Pick - Scottie Scheffler
TeeOff - Davis Riley
Percentages held true for Mia by advancing the 38% equity that it believed Scheffler will hold in group one.
Group 16
Strength - 6th Hardest
Mia Pick - Tommy Fleetwood
TeeOff - Sungjae Im
Sungjae was the top implied probability choice. Mia went with Fleetwood, who was second
Group 8
Strength - 1st Hardest
Mia Pick - Matt Kuchar
TeeOff - Viktor Hovland
There's a reason this pod is the most challenging of the 16. Mia decided to roll with the third choice. I chose the slight favorite in Hovland.
Group 9
Strength - 5th Hardest
Mia Pick - Adam Svensson
TeeOff - Adam Svensson
You could make an argument that my numbers are a little too aggressive for Adam Svensson, but the Canadian was able to realize the slight margin he had in projected win equity over Collin Morikawa and Jason Day in the simulation.
I selected Svensson for the leverage and contrarian nature of my math.

Group 5
Strength - 4th Hardest
Mia Pick - Hideki Matsuyama
TeeOff - Max Homa
Hideki had a little over 28% to be the choice. I went with my favorite in Homa.
Group 12
Strength - 10th Hardest
Mia Pick - Jordan Spieth
TeeOff - Taylor Montgomery
The favorite won out for Mia.
Group 13
Strength - 8th Hardest
Mia Pick - Sam Burns
TeeOff - Sam Burns
Group 4
Strength - 9th Hardest
Mia Pick - Patrick Cantlay
TeeOff - Patrick Cantlay
Group 2
Strength - 3rd Hardest
Mia Pick - Billy Horschel
TeeOff - Jon Rahm
Mia's pick sort of shows the wide-open nature of Mitchell, Fowler and Horschel teamed up to take down Rahm.
Group 15
Strength - 11th Hardest
Mia Pick - Corey Conners
TeeOff - Cameron Young
Conners was the second most likely player to advance. I went with my favorite.
Group 10
Strength - 13th Hardest
Mia Pick - Tony Finau
TeeOff - Tony Finau
Even a simulated model can't seem to avoid Finau chalk.
Group 7
Strength - 15th Hardest
Mia Pick - Ryan Fox
TeeOff - Andrew Putnam
This group is open for the taking. Fox was the last choice, but the percentages were all 20+ for the pod.
Group 6
Strength - 2nd Hardest
Mia Pick - Aaron Wise
TeeOff - Tom Hoge
I've talked enough this week about my love for Hoge. I will be taking him -120 on DraftKings against Wise on day one.
Group 11
Strength - 16th Hardest
Mia Pick - J.J. Spaun
TeeOff - J.J. Spaun
Spaun was right there with Fitzpatrick when it came to likelihood to advance with my numbers. Not overly shocking that Mia landed there.
Group 14
Strength - 14th Hardest
Mia Pick - Lucas Herbert
TeeOff - Russell Henley
Another section that has a lot of volatility with who advances.
Group 3
Strength - 12th Hardest
Mia Pick - Rory McIlroy
TeeOff - Keegan Bradley
McIlroy does have the best chance. I went contrarian, but the math would pick Rory more often than not.
Sweet 16
For the rest of the way through, I ran what my head-to-head percentages would be on each matchup. For example, Scottie was a little less than -200 to advance over Fleetwood in Mia's example.
Mia Pick - Scottie Scheffler over Tommy Fleetwood
TeeOff - Sungjae Im over Davis Riley
Mia Pick - Matt Kuchar over Adam Svensson
TeeOff - Viktor Hovland over Adam Svensson
Mia Pick - Jordan Spieth over Hideki Matsuyama
