This week we have a very tough course with a very watered-down field, which may mean we will see even more carnage than last week. My focus will be on APP with OTT and ARG trailing close behind. Make sure you stay with us on the PGA Livestream and in Discord for updates as there are plenty of potential WD’s still to come and some wind concerns. See you tonight on the Livestream! Here is The Honda Classic: Initial Picks.
Daniel Berger (10800) – Over the last 12 rounds he’s gaining in a big way with the BS (both APP and OTT) and we know his outstanding pedigree goes well beyond a mere 12 rounds. He’s also from this area and has made three cuts in a row the last three years, including a 4th place finish last year. Note, we need to monitor his rib injury so stay tuned for more news on that.
Talor Gooch (9300) – Definitely a golfer on the rise. His pricetag is high and I’m hopeful that creates some ownership leverage, but we’ll need to wait for Steven’s article to confirm. The ball striking has been very good, particularly on APP and he typically gains in all categories. He’s coming off a 5th last week and a 20th on this course in 2020.
Cameron Tringale (9100) – In every tournament he’s played this calendar year, dating back to AmEx in January, he’s gained in Ball Striking. His only questionable ball striking tournament was the API where he lost on APP (but still gained in overall BS).
Chris Kirk (9000) – He has really played well this year with 5 out of 6 made cuts, including two Top 10 finishes. Last week the putter let him down, but he’s been great with the ball striking and the short game and should be there on Sunday.
Brendan Steele (8700) – A steady ball striker who I’m not typically selecting in DFS, but in a watered down field, he feels like a relatively safe play with upside. He’s been making cuts at a prolific rate and his last four on this track were 4th, MC, 14th and 14th.
Keegan Bradley (8400) – He gained almost 3 strokes on APP on Sunday at the Players. He’s one of the best ball strikers in this field and is starting to find the putter.
Kevin Streelman (7700) – He’s coming off a missed cut, mostly thanks to a bad putter, but the ball striking this year has been very good. A good course fit in spite of not having much success here in the past.
Cameron Percy (6900) – Has been very consistent in the ball striking department and gained in all SG metrics last week at the Players. He’s made 4 out of 6 cuts in 2021 and in this watered down field, I expect him to make the cut again.
Scott Stallings (6500) – He gained on APP every single tourney this year (he’s played in 5). He’s going to need to be average OTT and average with the short game, which he sometimes struggles with, but I’m willing to take the chance here.
Secret Weapon (Less than 7k/Less than 5% owned) – see you in Discord.
See everyone tonight and please be sure to be in Discord tomorrow as these picks develop and as more articles come in from the team.
