PGA – Expert Recap and Grades – BMW Championship
PGA DFS Expert Grades BMW Championship
What a wild ride on Sunday! After DJ holed out a nearly impossible putt to force a playoff between the #1 and #2 ranked players in the world, Jon Rahm did the unthinkable. Rahm holed an even more impossible putt for the win on hole #73. Outside of the below recap from last week, be sure you’re staying up to date on our season long PGA Expert Standings. Off to the Tour Championship this week at East Lake in Georgia. With a shortened field, we will not be producing a Consensus this week so this will be a wrap on the 2019-20 PGA season.

*****EXPERT GRADES*****
Grades are the result of a three step process.
First, the field is sorted by raw points achieved and assigned a grade 0-5, with 5 being best. Roughly the top 3-4% receive 5 points, the next 13-15% receive 4 points, the next 13-15% receive 3 points, and so on. In weeks with a cut, almost all MCs receive 0 points.
Next, we follow the same method described above, but we replace raw points with salary ($) / fantasy points (pts).
Finally, we weight the two results (2x raw points grade + value grade / 3) and assign a traditional letter grade.
