The Model Maniac

435 articles

A South African native living the American dream. I played college golf in Iowa where I spent four years playing and two coaching, while grabbing 3.5 finance related degrees along the way. As my twitter handle suggests, I am obsessed with my very own excel model. Tournament long matchups are my favorite bet and I love nothing more than a Sunday golf sweat.

FanDuel PGA DFS Lineup Picks: 2023 WM Phoenix Open

We are back with another week of FanDuel DFS for the WM Phoenix Open. The field is absolutely loaded with stars as this is the first full-field elevated event of the year. It will not be difficult to find good golfers down the board, so balanced or stars-and-"scrubs" builds will both be doable. In this […]

Breaking $100 - Free PGA Betting Picks - Golf Best Bets for the 2023 WM Phoenix Open

If it puts into perspective how hard it is to have picked a winner last week at Pebble Beach, Justin Rose's golf ball was blowing around on the green and left him "patiently" waiting for a resolution on the matter while other golfers continued to get lambasted by the winds of the Monterey Peninsula. Wind […]

10 Questions To Ask - PGA Betting, DFS Picks - Golf Bets Research - 2023 WM Phoenix Open

Pebble Beach provided one of the most chaotic weeks of golf so far, with severe wind, hail, and cold temperatures harassing golfers all week. So much so that the final round will only be concluded tomorrow (Monday). We now head to Phoenix where the weather is much more temperate and the field is much more […]


PGA DFS Showdown Slate - Round 3 Picks for 2023 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am

At this point in the tournament, chaos is the new normal. Kurt Kitayama leads Brandon Wu (who?), Keith Mitchell, Hank Lebioda, and Joseph Bramlett, who all sit inside the top five and tied for second. Round 3 will be starting an hour earlier because excessive winds will be blowing away on the field later in […]


PGA DFS Picks - Round 2 Showdown for 2023 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am

Round one of the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am was a wild one. Two players made 10's on the Par 5 18th once the wind picked up in the late afternoon. Five of the top 18 stroke gainers were not rostered in the showdown contest I was entered in. An utter dumpster fire of a day, […]

In this article, we'll discuss some of the standout PGA DFS plays available on FanDuel […]

Breaking $100 - Free PGA Betting Picks - Golf Best Bets for the 2023 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am

Last week, our primary outright pick for the week decided to lose eight strokes putting through the first two rounds, and still somehow managed to make the cut on the back of the sensational ball striking we picked him for. He then went on to have the round of the tournament, gaining +8.21 strokes on […]

10 Questions To Ask: PGA Betting, DFS Picks - Golf Bets Research - Pebble Beach Pro-AM

Max Homa is now one of the best players on tour and continues to show what he is capable of when he finds himself with a sniff of the lead. An incredible performance once again from the blossoming superstar. We are going to ask a few questions that will guide us through a multitude of […]


PGA DFS Picks- Round 4 Showdown for 2023 Farmers Insurance Open

To put how amazing a 17% owned Tony Finau was today (-8) into perspective, he beat another professional golfer who made the cut this week ... by 16 shots. We stuck with Tony after his nightmarish start and it paid off quite nicely in R3. We know for a fact that Finau lost five strokes […]

PGA DFS Picks - Round 3 Showdown for 2023 Farmers Insurance Open

Sam Ryder is apparently playing a different golf course right now (-12), sitting three shots clear of his playing partner for the first two rounds, Brendan Steele who sits in 2nd at -9. They will be playing together for third time tomorrow and will need to keep the good vibes going as in the thick […]


PGA DFS Picks - Round 2 Showdown for 2023 Farmers Insurance Open

Jon Rahm is nine strokes shy of the lead after round one. He played the tougher South Course, but would be seven strokes behind the best score on that course too. Tony Finau shot the same as Rahm and lost FIVE strokes putting. This is the first time he has done so since 2017 which […]

10 Questions To Ask -PGA Betting, DFS Picks - Golf Bets Research - The Farmers Insurance Open

Jon Rahm is on a tear right now, winning four of his last six starts. He goes to a venue that is essentially built for his booming drives and accurate long irons. He is going to make betting and playing DFS this week very challenging. Hopefully, the books hang some juicy numbers out there on […]


PGA DFS Picks- Round 4 Showdown for 2023 American Express

Jon Rahm and Davis Thompson both lead the way at the top of the board, four shots clear of Christiaan Bezuidenhout and J.T. Poston in T3. Both Rahm and Thompson have spent the majority of the week at the top of the leaderboard, dominating par-5s across all three courses. A stadium course that can show […]

PGA DFS Picks - Round 2 Showdown for 2023 American Express

Davis Thompson was on 59 watch after heading out in 28 strokes, only to record a measly two-under 34 on the back nine to finish to finish with a -10 (62). Very impressive stuff. He recorded back-to-back eagles on the two par 5s on La Quinta, which is where the majority of the golfers we […]


Mark Hubbard Playing After Toe Surgery

Mark Hubbard has essentially missed five-straight cuts, with four of them coming before he had toe surgery. He missed the cut on the number at the Sony last week and if he can bounce back to his healthy self that started the season with a T28, T5, and T21, his low salary and ownership are […]


Sam Burns Flying Under The Radar

Sam Burns is going incredibly under looked this week. Burns has been struggling a little of late, but if he plays to his baseline this week, he stands a fantastic chance of rattling off another win on a course where he can let his putter and biggest weapon do most of the scoring for him. […]
