Michael Kim Looks To Keep Strong Play Going In Florida

The run of good golf continues for Michael Kim, as the 31-year-old finished T13 in Mexico for his third-straight top-15 finish. The week at Vidanta Vallarta was impressive for him in the long iron department, which has been the lone fault in his approach game this season. The length of the course may be the […]

Beau Hossler Is On A Downward Trend Ahead Of Cognizant Classic

Since having two top-15 finishes to begin the year, Beau Hossler's game has taken a giant step backward over his last three events. This has mainly come from the ball-striking side of things. However, last week in Mexico saw him lose strokes across the board —aside from off the tee— en route to missing the […]

Russell Henley Takes Aim At Another Chance For A Big Week At PGA National

It's tough to think about PGA National without thinking of Russell Henley's epic playoff win in 2014 that included a young and spry Rory McIlroy. Since then, he's continued to play well here, including a T3 in 2021 and a T8 in 2020. Given the draw-biased nature of the layout at the Champion Course and […]

Ben Griffin To Keep Momentum Going At Cognizant Classic

After a few events of frustratingly poor results with positive metrics, Ben Griffin put everything together for a solid T4 finish in Mexico last week. Ranking third in the field in strokes gained on approach (+1.48), and inside the top 20 for strokes gained around the green (+0.64) and putting (+0.79). The former UNC golfer […]

Rickie Fowler Looking To Get Back To Having Success At PGA National

Rickie Fowler has made many starts at PGA National in his career. His run in the 2010s was as spectacular as any player could hope for at a single event over 10 years, especially one as unforgiving as the Champion Course. Racking up a win in 2017, a T2 in 2019, two top 10s, and […]

Eric Cole Is A Complete Flier Pick At PGA National

On one hand, the approach play that Eric Cole has put on display in the past gives many reason to believe he is a good business decision for a course like PGA National. But on the other, how much longer can he live off the ROTY season in 2023 that has given him such credibility? […]

Daniel Berger Will Be A Popular Play At Cognizant Classic

The combination of good course history and two quality finishes will make Daniel Berger one of the highest-owned players in DFS lineups this week. The 31-year-old seems ready to jump back into the upper echelons of professional golf in 2025, gaining over seven and a half strokes on approach and over five and a half […]

Horse For The Course: PGA DFS Course History - 2025 Cognizant Classic

We are finally through the PGA Tour's West Coast swing that ended this past week in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. The country's national open was a snooze fest for much of the tournament until an exciting final day that ended in one of the craziest playoffs you will ever see, as Brian Campbell finally earned a […]

Round 4 PGA DFS Showdown Slate Picks - 2025 Mexico Open

After the hustle and bustle of the last few weeks on the PGA Tour, things slowed down a bit in terms of importance this week for the Mexico Open. A longtime professional golf event celebrating its fourth season on the Tour, it used to host much bigger names with Jon Rahm and Tony Finau having […]

Michael Thorbjornsen Looks To Get Things Going In The Right Direction At Mexico Open

After two missed cuts to start the season, Michael Thorbjornsen finished T74 in Phoenix two weeks ago. The 23-year-old does have some upside this week given his 312.4 driving distance (ranked 21st on Tour) and his proximity with longer irons; however, many negatives make this immensely talented player hard to trust until things improve. Putting […]

Davis Riley An Unlikely Candidate For Success At Mexico Open

It has been a rough start in this young season for Davis Riley. The 28-year-old hasn't played four rounds in an event with a WD at the Sentry followed up with three consecutive missed cuts. The ball striking has completely evaded the former Crimson Tide golfer, as he ranks second-to-last on the PGA Tour in […]

Avoid Ryan Palmer Like The Plague At Mexico Open

Ryan Palmer's 22nd year on the PGA Tour has not started as well as he'd hoped. The 48-year-old is a non-factor at most events these days, as he's merely biding time until the Senior circuit calls. The stats have not been good, ranking outside the top 120 in every strokes gained metric and struggling mightily […]

Matteo Manassero In For A Long Week In Mexico

It has taken Matteo Manassero much longer than expected to make his way onto the PGA Tour. The 31-year-old made quite the name for himself in the early days of his professional golf career on the European circuit. He's making his third PGA Tour start of the season this week on a beast of a […]

Jake Knapp Returns To Defend His Title At The Mexico Open

Last year was an impressive coming-out party for Jake Knapp. The now 30-year-old PGA Tour player is in his second year on the circuit and returns to a place seemingly tailor-made for his brand of golf. He's coming off a T17 finish at the Genesis Invitational last week, where he ranked 5th in the field […]

Charley Hoffman A Great Bounce-Back Candidate In Mexico

Perhaps the biggest question of this week for many DFS players is what to do with Charley Hoffman. He was a flash in the pan for two weeks, however, that flash is bookended by poor performances. Horrific putting has been the story for the 48-year-old in this early season, as he ranks nearly dead-last in […]

Ben Griffin A Potential Sneaky Play At Mexico Open

Since his T7 finish at the AmEx, Ben Griffin has been battling a sick putter as he ranks 135th in strokes gained putting (-0.346) this season. This current run with the flat stick is the worst of his career and something that should come back around in time. The resort-style putting surfaces at this week's […]

Blades Brown Making Second Professional Start In Mexico

Thursday will be the first round of the second career start for Blades Brown since turning professional in January. His first start came at the AmEx, where other than an impressive 64 on Friday, he didn't do much on his way to missing the cut by two shots. Given the quirky absence of data on […]

Horse For The Course: PGA DFS Course History - 2025 Mexico Open

It was a wonderful week in San Diego at Torrey Pines, as the relocated Genesis Invitational brought a ton of action and drama down the stretch that ended with a Ludvig Aberg victory. The young Swede overcame a spotty start on Sunday to birdie four of his final six holes and steal the win away […]

Round 4 PGA DFS Showdown Slate Picks - 2025 Genesis Invitational

Normally held at Riviera Country Club, this week's Genesis Invitational has been a staple on the PGA Tour, long before Tiger Woods became the host. However, the Tour had to call an audible for its host site after the fires that swept through the L.A. area in January and thus moved this year's edition to […]

Cameron Young Is An Interesting Play At Torrey Pines

After a T12 in the desert, Cameron Young is carrying momentum into this week at Torrey Pines, a place that hasn't been the kindest to him in three career starts. His most recent appearance was a T20 in 2022 at the Farmers Insurance Open but he missed the two previous cuts at the 2021 U.S. […]

Sahith Theegala Is Riding The Struggle Bus To Torrey Pines

Things have not started as high as many hoped for Sahith Theegala in 2025. While he isn't playing badly enough to miss cuts, the Pepperdine product hasn't cracked the top 35 in any of his five starts this season. What's more frustrating is that none of the struggles can be blamed on one part of […]

Justin Rose Looks For Redemption At Torrey Pines

It has been a long and, at times, frustrating history for Justin Rose at Torrey Pines. The 44-year-old has played in 17 total events at Torrey and has had as many quality finishes as missed cuts in that span. His most recent MC came here a few weeks ago at the Farmers Insurance Open after […]

Collin Morikawa An Excellent Play At Genesis Invitational

It has been a fun start to 2025 for Collin Morikawa. He has secured two solid finishes to start his PGA Tour season (T17-2nd) and his TGL team is currently dominating the startup tech circuit. Given the solid play he's continuing to produce, it's crazy to think he hasn't won on Tour in over a […]

Shane Lowry Back In Action At Torrey Pines

After a solo second at Pebble Beach, Shane Lowry is returning to Torrey Pines, where he missed the cut a month ago at the Farmers Insurance Open. The Irishman has made many attempts at various tournaments here over the years but has sadly struggled in most cases. His usual comfortability off the tee is diminished […]

Sungjae Im Is A Highly Volatile Play With Persuasive Upside

Sungjae Im is perhaps the trickiest player in this field to pin down ahead of Thursday, as he could produce a wide range of outcomes that most DFS players will choose to let be someone else's problem, which is understandable. The 26-year-old is notorious for fading at weird times and even at courses where he […]

Torrey Pines May Be A Place To Avoid Russell Henley

It may seem a bit far-fetched to call for outright fading a guy like Russell Henley, who's done nothing but improve over his first three starts this season. However, this famed municipal track doesn't particularly play into his skillset. The long par-4s don't give him many looks with wedges and low irons that are much […]

Tommy Fleetwood An Interesting Name For Genesis Invitational

Probably a better play at the original host site, Riviera Country Club, Tommy Fleetwood still makes for a person of interest ahead of Thursday at Torrey Pines. Through only two events played this season (One PGA Tour and one DP World Tour event), the 34-year-old has gained over 10 shots on approach and is averaging […]

Corey Conners A Scary Play At Torrey Pines

Since his T5 at The Sentry, things have been ugly--primarily on the greens--for Corey Conners. The Canadian has lost over 11 strokes putting over his last three contests, and his record in four events played at Torrey Pines isn't much different. The ball striking remains strong, but bleeding that many shots away with the flat […]

Keegan Bradley A Bounce-Back Candidate At Torrey Pines

Given his history at other venues on the shorter side of the course length spectrum, Keegan Bradley's T65 at Pebble Beach two weeks ago was a bit of a shock. Especially considering the hot start to the year which included a T15 at this venue a month ago at its normal tour stop, the Farmers […]

Ludvig Aberg Plans To Play At Torrey Pines This Week

After withdrawing from Pebble Beach two weeks ago after posting a first-round 77, Ludvig Aberg (illness) will attempt to return this week at Torrey Pines for the relocated Genesis Invitational. While no one can deny the talent level of the young Swede, there is considerable risk here given what's been on display in his last […]
