PGA – Expert Recap and Grades – AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am
PGA DFS Expert Grades AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am
It was never really in doubt on Sunday as Nick Taylor ran away and hid from the competition this past weekend at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. 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 will head down the coast to Riviera Country Club for this week’s Genesis Open!

*****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.
