Thorbjorn Olesen A Contender At PGA National
9 months agoBased on early projections, it appears that Thorbjorn Olesen may go overlooked by fantasy managers this week. That could end up being a costly mistake, despite being surrounded by numerous high-upside golfers in DraftKings' $7,000-range. The 34-year-old Dane has been scorching hot on the DP World Tour, racking up six top-10 finishes in his last ten starts, including an outright victory at the Ras Al Khaimah Championship at the end of January. Olesen's string of recent success no doubt helped him earn his special invitation to the Masters, and he could very well carry these results over to PGA National. Olesen ranks sixth in the field in overall approach, fourth around-the-green, and fourth in bogey avoidance over the last 36 rounds, all of which could be a recipe for success if he can manage to avoid trouble off-the-tee. Olesen's claimed a victory in three-straight DP World Tour seasons and is no doubt motivated to make a splash with his first PGA Tour title.
