PGA – Expert Recap and Grades – RBC Heritage
PGA DFS Picks RBC Heritage
Easter Sunday has been kind to Jordan Spieth the last two years. If he makes it three, he’ll be wearing a green jacket in 2023. Outside of the below recap from last week, be sure you’re staying up to date on our season long PGA Expert Standings. This Consensus will take the week off with the Zurich team event taking place this weekend.

*****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.
