It is strange to describe Rory McIlroy as slumping, but even McIlroy would agree with that characterization of his current form. After starting the 2019-20 season in blazing fashion, the 31-year-old has struggled mightily since play resumed following the layoff for COVID-19. McIlroy has failed to post a top-10 finish since the restart and has been vocal with the media about the negative impact that the lack of fans on the course has had on his game. He has the ability to win any time he tees it up, including this week at the BMW Championship, but he's consistently failed to pay off his DFS backers over the last two months. --Joe Nicely - RotoBaller

Coming off his historic win at The Masters, Rory McIlroy will tee it up again with good pal, Shane Lowry, this week at TPC Louisiana. Much like McIlroy's route to two victories this season, he and Lowry won this event last season in a playoff over Chad Ramey and Martin Trainer. There isn't much to know about the layout this week other than that it rewards the long ball off the tee, which the Northern Irishman is one of the best in the world at. Leading the PGA Tour in strokes gained tee to green (+1.725), this formidable team is the undoubted favorite ahead of Thursday's opening round. --Todd McGill - RotoBaller

Many years throughout Rory McIlroy's career have seemed ripe for him to capture a green jacket. Aside from the collapse in 2011, much of his inability to convert at Augusta has been from slow starts and poor play around the greens. In his last four starts at The Masters, McIlroy has lost strokes around the green in three of them; 2022 being the outlier, where he gained an average of +2.01 in this area and finished in solo second. The Northern Irishman has undoubtedly been the hottest player this season, with two wins already under his belt and leading the PGA Tour in total strokes gained average (+2.319). The work he's put into the mental side of his game is evident by the uncharacteristically strong start to the year and his recent performances in majors. Buying into the hype this year might honestly be worth it.--Todd McGill - RotoBaller

There is no other way to explain the Rory McIlroy show making a stop in Houston this week than that he feels as close as he possibly ever has to winning a green jacket. It's certainly the hottest start to a season he's had in quite some time, coming off the second Players Championship win of his career and notching a victory at Pebble Beach earlier in the year. 2025 could very well be the year for the Northern Irishman, which draws concerns for him from a DFS perspective this week. At $13,200 on FanDuel, getting to his pricetag will be hard enough, but how serious he takes this week is another major concern. It feels like he's only a useful asset with a win, which doesn't seem like it would be of much importance given the bigger prize in a couple of weeks.--Todd McGill - RotoBaller

Since his victory in 2019, Rory McIlroy has not had the greatest of times at the Stadium Course. Putting has been the main concern during that time, as he lost a combined -13.28 strokes on the greens between 2021 and 2023. That has luckily been a strong point of emphasis for the 35-year-old this season, as he has ranked inside the top 10 in strokes gained putting in two of four events. Given that he averaged -0.28 strokes gained on approach at Bay Hill, the iron play is perhaps the largest question mark heading into Thursday. Still, McIlroy is a weekly asset and should warrant any consideration DFS players are willing to give him.--Todd McGill - RotoBaller
