Corey Conners A Safe Pick With Questionable Upside At Wells Fargo
6 months agoBy now, we get that Corey Conners is a premier iron player, especially over 200 yards (fourth in strokes gained on approach at 0.798), and he isn't typically a slouch off the tee, either. But to have lasting success on the PGA Tour, guys have to do more than that on occasion to notch some high finishes. The Canadian hasn't done much of either so far this season other than a Sunday push at The Players to finish in a tie for 13th after starting the day outside the top 20. His biggest struggles have come from on and around the green, as he ranks 137th in strokes gained around the green (minus-0.187) and 160th in strokes gained putting (minus-0.472). It's doubtful that he doesn't play well enough to score DFS points for all four rounds, but at $9,400 on FanDuel, his troubles this season make him a less appealing play than other guys around him.
