2 weeks agoSepp Straka has had an incredible 2025 season thus far. He has seven finishes inside the top 20, three inside the top 10, and a win at the American Express. His game is in all-around good form heading into Augusta National this week, where players will need to be precise from tee to green. Straka ranks 52nd in strokes gained off the tee, 5th in strokes gained approach to green, and 53rd in strokes gained putting, all numbers that are above average on tour. His best finish at ANGC came at last year's Master's with a T-16, and in his three appearances, he has not missed the cut. The former Georgia Bulldog looks to be a solid play in DFS formats this week.

1 month agoSepp Straka had another impressive tournament at The PLAYERS, gaining strokes across all areas and finishing T14. This marks his seventh top-20 finish of the season and he looks to keep the momentum going at the Valspar Championship, an event he has played in twice, missing the cut in 2024 and finishing T46 in 2023. To succeed at Copperhead, players need to be precise from tee to green and sharp with their short game. Straka ranks 12th in strokes gained from tee to green (1.204 per round), sixth on approach (0.933), 85th around the green (0.031), and 53rd in putting (0.283). He also excels in other key areas, ranking 10th in bogey avoidance, 11th in driving accuracy, and is in the 98th percentile for proximity from 150-200 yards over the past 12 months, a range that accounted for 37% of all approach shots here last year. At $10,000 on DraftKings, fantasy managers can confidently continue to fire up Straka.

1 month agoSepp Straka finished tied for fifth at last week's Arnold Palmer Invitational and is now preparing for The PLAYERS Championship, which will be held at TPC Sawgrass this week. In his eight starts this season, Straka has one win, two top-five finishes, and three top-15 finishes. He has historically performed well at The PLAYERS Championship, finishing T16 in 2024, T65 in 2023, and tied for ninth in 2022. Over the past 12 months, Straka ranks in the 97th percentile for greens in regulation percentage on approach shots from 100-150 yards in the fairway. This is significant, as over 32% of approach shots at last year's The PLAYERS Championship came from this distance. Straka could be a valuable addition to DFS lineups this week.

2 months agoSepp Straka is a golfer that can be hot when his form is on. The Austrian golfer bounced back from a rough time at The Genesis Invitational last week. At PGA National in Florida, Straka fell out of the Top 10 late but finished T-11 behind a 70. This was after three rounds of 67. A few errant shots and putts did not go Straka's way. Bay Hill penalizes more for errant tee shots and irons so Straka will need to avoid mistakes this week. At Torrey Pines, he did not and paid dearly. Straka ranks inside the Top 10 in some models when combining birdie potential, strokes gained on approach and strokes gained in Florida. Ranking 11th in 2025 in approach to green at 0.867 strokes gained could make him a nice Top 5 or Top 10 betting option this week.
