PGA – Expert Recap and Grades – 3M Open
PGA DFS Expert Grades 3M Open
To say it was a rough week for the experts would be quite the understatement. It was an odd week on Tour with some little known names finishing at the top of the leaderboard. Outside of the below recap from last week, be sure you’re staying up to date on our season long PGA Expert Standings. The Tour heads to Tennessee for this week’s WGC event.

*****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.
