PGA – Expert Recap and Grades – WGC Dell Match Play
PGA DFS Picks WGC Dell Match Play
I love the WGC events, especially the Match Play. Scottie Scheffler dominated all week long and takes over the #1 ranking in the world after his win. 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 San Antonio this week for the Valero Texas 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.
