Byron Nelson Preview and Picks

  The Players Championship was another Jason Day route, which meant another losing week for most of us. He’s clearly separated himself as the world’s best player, and he should be a favorite every single week he tees it up. I was burned by the MCs by Jordan Spieth, Henrik Stenson, Rickie Fowler, and Kevin […]

The Players Championship: Picks and Preview

The losing streak has ended! It was another pretty difficult DFS week, with a lot of the chalk plays missing the cut or fading on the weekend. I had all of the big names near the top – Rory, Phil, Rose, and Berger – but unfortunately none of them were able to close it out. […]

Wells Fargo Championship Preview and Picks

Well I’m about ready to turn the page on the Zurich Classic. After five days (and only three rounds), Brian Stuard produced enough clutch shots (and made every single putt) to capture his first career win and his 1st Masters berth. He seemed to be overmatched in the playoff against Jamie Lovemark and Byeong-Hun An, but […]

RBC Heritage Preview and Picks

  What a Masters week we had, including a meltdown that nobody saw coming. Congrats to Danny Willett – who has been on our DFS radar all year – on his first major championship. Overall our picks were solid last week… we had Willett, Spieth, Day, Casey, and Oosthuizen all near the top in DK […]

The Masters: Preview and Picks

  Hello, friends. It’s that time of year, where the best players in the world take a drive down Magnolia Lane to the Augusta National Golf Club. It truly is a tradition unlike any other. Do I have to credit Jim Nantz yet? Anyways…IT’S MASTERS WEEK! Unfortunately, I’m in a wedding all weekend and likely […]

Shell Houston Open: Preview and Picks

  It took a soft field in an opposite field event, but we finally had an awesome week of picks at the Puerto Rico Open. Big congrats to Tony Finau on his first career win, flashing some serious short game shots in the playoff against Steve Marino. We got strong finishes from Scott Brown, Kyle […]

Puerto Rico Open Preview and Picks

  We had a decent week at the API, but had two major players (Matt Kuchar and Will Wilcox) miss the cut by a single stroke. That’s golf.  Congrats to Jason Day on a tremendous wire-to-wire win, especially considering he has a pretty brutal history on Bermuda grass in Florida. With recent wins by Day, […]

AP Invitational Preview and Player Rankings

  Well, the Valspar was a great week for Charl Schwartzel, but not so much for me.  My two highest owned players (Sean O’Hair and Danny Lee) both withdrew. We take the good with the bad in golf, because those kinds of bad breaks are very unpredictable. Don’t be too hard on yourselves, because it’s […]

Valspar Championship Preview

Another tough DFS week at the WGC-Cadillac Championship, but major props to Adam Scott for going back-to-back.  He showed some serious mental fortitude by coming back after those two early double bogeys to catch Rory.  Charley Hoffman and Anirban Lahiri showed up for us, but the DJ ejection on Sunday was pretty brutal to watch. […]

WGC-Cadillac Championship Preview

The Honda Classic was a pretty brutal week overall, so I’m glad to be moving on to the WGC-Cadillac Championship at Doral.  My main picks last week (Paul Casey, Ryan Palmer, and Luke Donald) all made the cut, but were pretty mediocre otherwise.  This week, we head to the Blue Monster for a limited-field, no-cut […]
