WGC – Initial DFS Picks
The Win Daily Golf Team is getting after it in the next couple of days with numerous articles, projections and the Livestream which airs Wednesday night at 8:30. This week we have a very strong field at the WGC but it is also a no cut event so don’t be as shy about taking some guys down low. APP and OTT remain important but we’re going to factor in ARG a little bit more than normal. Jump in Discord over the next couple days as we debate more picks and discuss our core players. Please also take a look at our “cheat sheet” which comes out soon. Here are our WGC – Initial DFS Picks.
Justin Thomas (10700) – This guy T2G is just awesome. Iron play is awesome. Other than a poor performance at the Travelers he has been great since the restart. In this elite price range he’s my favorite guy.
Tyrell Hatton (9700) – There are a couple holes on this course where you can really find trouble in the water and that always scares me with a guy who has Hatton’s temperament. With that said, he’s been so good this year in the few tournaments he’s played and he’s a great ball striker.
Daniel Berger (9600) – Shaky with a missed cut at the Memorial and hasn’t played much lately but can’t deny this guy’s OTT and APP game. No stranger to a hot putter either. I’m happy to roster Berger coming off his missed cut as I think he’s elite.
Viktor Hovland (9400) – The knock on Hovland post pandemic was his short game was terrible. He’s clearly improved there and has added even better ball striking. He finally took a week off last week, which I think he definitely needed. There’s just no reason for me to think his ball striking is going to be any different than it’s been and I’m happy to roster him in spite of being expected chalk.
Gary Woodland (8600) – He seemed to have found something with his OTT game after switching to his driver at the Workday. At the Memorial he had mixed results with his ball striking, but that may have been more of a conditions issue than anything. If he found what I think he found at Workday, then this is great value at this price.
Abraham Ancer (8400) – If you had him at the Memorial you were happy with the made cut but not happy with anything he did on the weekend. I’m really not factoring in much of the Memorial to my analysis as the conditions were brutal. Ancer is a great ball striker. He’s particularly great OTT and on APP and his ARG is decent. Expect him to be popular at this price.
Jason Day (8200) – Always a risk to withdraw and back looked a little shaky last time out. But what didn’t look shaky was his ball striking and he appears to have found something that resembles the Jason Day of old (7th and 4th in his last two). Further, his ARG game is great so I’ll add him to a few lineups.
Sergio Garcia (8000) – This guy simply can’t putt, but he’s been good everywhere else. I’m always willing to hope and pray that a guy finds a hot putter while gaining strokes everywhere else. This guy can compete with the big boys as he’s been one of the big boys before (and a 5th at the RBC showed us he can compete with a packed field on Sunday).
Kevin Streelman (6900) – His 54th at the Memorial wasn’t anything great but honestly just making the cut at that tournament is good enough for me to check a box. 7th at Workday and 2nd at Travelers speaks to how well Streelman has been clicking. Good ball striker who gains in every category.
Chez Reavie (6700) – Happy to ride the mini-hot streak with a 22nd at the Memorial and 17th at Workday. He’s good on APP and good ARG. If he’s decent OTT he’s good value at this price.
Nick Taylor (6100) – a low rent option that allows you to jam in some guys at the higher ends of the market.
Secret Weapon (sub 7k) – Stay tuned for this week’s secret weapon in Discord.
