PGA DFS Picks WGC Workday Championship
Collin Morikawa wasn’t wearing red and black but he closed out a 54-hole lead in Tiger fashion on Sunday. He cruised to a three shot win and look great doing it. 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 players head to Bay Hill this week and the Arnold Palmer Invitational.

*****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.
