Keegan Bradley Coming To Augusta National With Ice-Cold Putter

The 2024 season hasn't quite been the same level of play for Keegan Bradley, as he has missed three of his last four cuts thanks to losing an average of almost a stroke and a half with his putter during that time. His woes on the greens have been the most talked-about part of his […]

Nicolai Hojgaard Looking For Putter At Augusta National

It's been a rough go on the greens for Nicolai Hojgaard over his last four events, as he's lost an average of minus-1.075 strokes putting over that time, which isn't something DFS managers want to hear coming into one of the most difficult putting tests we'll see all year. It's a problem that his top-level […]

Tiger Woods Set To Make Another Start At The Masters

Yes, Tiger Woods is returning to golf after withdrawing from the Genesis Open in February due to an illness that sent the golf world into a frenzy. The clubhouse at Riviera was bombarded with emergency crews to attend to him and for a while, not many people knew what was happening with the 15-time major […]

Nick Taylor A Boring Play At The Masters

Since his win at the WM Phoenix Open, Nick Taylor has been doing just enough to get by. He boasts a solid 13th ranking in strokes gained on approach (0.629) and 19th in strokes gained putting ((0.575), but everything else hasn't been very good. He's making cuts, but other than a T12 at the API, […]

Akshay Bhatia Earns Last Remaining Invite To The Masters

It will be the first attempt at the best event in professional golf for Akshay Bhatia after the 22-year-old overcame a thunderous push from Denny McCarthy to win the Valero Texas Open. He led the field in strokes gained on approach (2.06) and 9th in strokes gained off the tee (1.07). There is something to […]

Tom Kim Looking For Turnaround At Year's First Major

It's always difficult to know exactly what to do with a guy who has shown a liking for Augusta National but is coming into the week in terrible form. Tom Kim is that guy. After a T16 in his debut here a year ago, the South Korean is returning to the hallowed grounds on the […]

Sahith Theegala Making Second Start At Augusta National

Coming into the first major of the season, Sahith Theegala has been a permanent fixture near the lead on a weekly basis with two top-10 finishes in his last three starts. From a fantasy perspective, there is nothing to dislike about where his game is, as he ranks in the top 50 in all strokes-gained […]

Max Homa Looking To Get Over The Hump At The Masters

Besides a missed cut at TPC Sawgrass, Max Homa has been playing decent golf over the last month and a half with two top 25s and one top 10. His most recent outing last week at the Valero Texas Open saw him have positive strokes gained metrics across the board, though none of them were […]

Cameron Smith Looking For Another High Finish At Augusta National

Coming off a withdrawal at LIV Golf Miami due to food poisoning, Cameron Smith returns to an event where he has done everything but secure a green jacket in seven career starts. The Australian has finished no worse than a T55, which was in his first attempt. Like other LIV players, not much is known […]

Viktor Hovland Searching For A Short Game Coming Into The Masters

The more things change, the more they stay the same. That has been the story for Viktor Hovland in 2024 after taking The Tour by storm last season. His shortcomings around the greens was a highly scrutinized part of his game at the beginning of his professional career. After a much improved 86th ranking in […]

Jon Rahm Making First 72-Hole-Event Start Since November

For many of us, it will be the first time seeing Jon Rahm hit a live shot in 2024. With that anticipation in mind, however, is the realization that placing him in the fold for DFS strategies is essentially a dart throw, though one with the ability to land squarely on a bullseye. There aren't […]

Patrick Rodgers Looking For Another Good Showing At Valero

A solo fifth place at this event was one of Patrick Rodgers' best finishes last season, and he undoubtedly will be looking to have that same success this week. And much like he was in 2023, the former Stanford Cardinal is rolling into town playing pretty horrendous golf. He hasn't had a positive total strokes […]

Doug Ghim Looking For A Return To Form At TPC San Antonio

The stats say to pick Doug Ghim almost every week, though it bit you last week in Houston where he missed his first cut in the last seven starts and ended an impressive stretch of golf that included two top 20s, two top 15s, and one top 10 finish. The major regression on the greens […]

Brendon Todd Is A Risky Play With Upside At Valero

After a missed cut at The Players, Brendon Todd bounced back decently at the Valspar with a finish of T33 that was much higher on the leaderboard before a final-round 76. His derailment came both on the greens (-1.83 strokes gained putting) and off the tee (-2.03 strokes gained off the tee). Todd's efficiency with […]

Nicolai Hojgaard A Complete Fade At Valero

Coming off two missed cuts in his last two events, there is very little reason to be excited about Nicolai Hojgaard coming into this week's Valero Texas Open. Statistics have been poor with every club in the bag, except driver (32nd in strokes gained off the tee: 0.376), and that is likely not enough to […]

Beau Hossler An Impossible Recommendation At Valero

There was a short stretch to begin the year that was advantageous for playing Beau Hossler in DFS lineups, however, that ship has unfortunately sailed until he figures some things out inside the ropes. The only bright spot for the former Texas Longhorn has been with the putter, as he ranks 26th in strokes gained […]

Time To Get Back On The Aaron Rai Train?

Before his missed cut at the Valspar Championship, Aaron Rai was a trending name for DFS players. He had an impressive bounce-back last week in Houston, most notably ranking 24th in strokes gained putting (0.93) and 14th in strokes gained on approach (1.00). Now, the strong performance with the irons is something we have come […]

Tom Kim Looking To Find Some Kind Of Form At Valero

Tom Kim has been on a rough road this season with a best finish of T17 at the WM Phoenix Open. Other than a mediocre 82nd ranking in strokes gained on approach (0.051), he is positioned outside the top 100 in every other strokes gained statistic. The South Korean is undoubtedly one of the biggest […]

Russell Henley Is A Hard Pass At TPC San Antonio

There have been spurts of good form this season from Russell Henley, but there has certainly been more evidence on the opposite side of that coin. He has struck the ball horribly from tee to green, ranking 96th in strokes gained off the tee (-0.011) and 114th in strokes gained on approach (-0.145). The 30th […]

Harris English An Interesting Play At Valero

There is only one way to summarize Harris English's last 16 months: he's done everything but win a tournament. He has several top 10s that include a few second and third-place finishes, but getting over the hump to get a W has been a struggle. Much of that has come in the final round, as […]

Adam Scott Looking To Regain Momentum At Valero

After a strong start to the season, Adam Scott has stalled over his last two starts, missing a cut and finishing T45. The former Masters champion had been uber-consistent with his irons before losing minus-1.30 strokes on approach at The Players Championship. TPC Sawgrass has a way of creating irregularities, so don't make it the […]

Brian Harman Is Making First Start At Valero Since 2019

It's been a few years since Brian Harman has played at TPC San Antonio, and it's no understatement that he's in a whole other stratosphere now than he was five years ago. The left-hander is coming off a missed cut at the Valspar where he lost strokes everywhere except around the greens (0.33 strokes gained […]

Alex Smalley A Complete Flier Pick In Houston

From a statistical perspective, Alex Smalley is as gross as they come. He has only played one meaningful tournament in 2024 (T21 at the American Express), which was an event that featured the most improbable of outcomes. Things have been on a bad run mostly thanks to irons and putter performances that seem to fluctuate […]

Robert MacIntyre Making Houston Open Debut

Things have been slow and steady since a T6 finish at the Mexico Open for Robert MacIntyre, but he isn't doing anything in his rounds that jump off the page. He has stayed around even in total strokes gained in three of his last four starts, aside from a poor outing at TPC Sawgrass. Bobby […]

Chesson Hadley Is A Risky Play In Houston

Finding reasons to like Chesson Hadley this week at the Houston Open starts and ends with the putter. With a ranking of 21st in strokes gained putting (0.544), everything falls off a cliff past that with being ranked outside the top 100 in every other solo strokes gained metric. Hadley is another guy on the […]

Victor Perez Making Tournament Debut In Houston

The impressive play tee to green (24th on the season in strokes gained tee to green: 0.743) for Victor Perez in 2024 has been largely negated by horrendous performances on and around the green. Something that can only be attributed to his jump from the DP World Tour to the more glamorous tour in the […]

Can Daniel Berger Get Back In The Saddle In Texas?

It's been great seeing Daniel Berger's return to professional golf from a back injury that left him sidelined for 18 months. However, the product inside the ropes has been undeniably rusty. He's coming off three straight missed cuts, though the only overwhelming sore spot in his game has been on the greens. The former FSU […]

Luke List Looking To Regain Some Form In Houston

Things have been rough for Luke List since finishing T2 at The Genesis Invitational in February with a 56th-place finish at the API sandwiched between two missed cuts. It has been due to bad play on and around the greens, where List has lost an average of -0.34 strokes putting and -0.62 strokes around the […]

Mackenzie Hughes A Volatile Choice In Houston

Coming off a solid T3 performance at The Copperhead Course, where Mackenzie Hughes narrowly missed picking up his third PGA Tour victory, the next stop on the schedule is an event that has been kind to Hughes over the years. With only one missed cut in six starts, the Canadian golfer has done everything but […]

Billy Horschel Looking To Carry The Momentum To Texas

It has been a better start to the year statistically for Billy Horschel than has translated to scores and finishes through his first seven events of the season. Aside from mediocre play around the greens (ranked 95th in strokes gained around the green at minus-0.014), he is ranked inside the top 60 in every other […]
