Welcome to the PGA National Course and The Honda Classic DFS DraftKings Ownership Projections. The field (course) is much tougher than the field playing on it. PGA National is the #1 most difficult course on the schedule for approach shots further than 150 yards. Wedge play is pretty much non existent with only 10% of the shots coming from 125 yards or closer. Golfers with a good short game on bermuda should do well. The Honda Classic DFS DraftKings Ownership Projections are designed to give you the leverage, value and pivot plays to help you move up the leaderboard to position yourself for a takedown.
Recent Results
Last week we had Kevin Tway as our Frisky Biscuit. He made the cut and finished top 40! That’s not bad for a golfer that only 1% rostered and cost a paltry 6200 in salary. 99% of the contest participants missed out on him, Win Daily Sports did not. Solid gold. Last Saturday night we put out Theegala, Cantlay and Svennson for Sundays showdown. They went -13 collectively and brought outstanding value. This brings our record to 29-7 for picking golfers that no one wants or are afraid to roster.

The Course – The Field
This tourney isn’t easy. Water surrounds most of the holes and tight sight lines demand precision shots. The average score at the cut has been over par for the last decade. The average score for the field has been Even par and the winning score has been -10 or lower for eight of the last ten years. Expect the same or worse with the talent level this week.
Whether to trust the Weather
At present the weather is calling for higher than normal temperatures plus humidity. Winds don’t seem to be a factor for the first two days. Please check with the Win Daily Sports Discord later tonight for up to the minute weather changes.
Targets and Traps
I will be keying on ownership again for this watered down field. There are 90 players in the 6K range. Ninety. That shows how un-elite this field is. Of those 90, 12-17% will make the cut which means 15 and 1/3 6K golfers make it to the weekend. We will give that 1/3rd to JB Holmes, he can afford to have it sliced off. Everyone will be on the top tier names, it’s the unknowns that will ultimately win you the contests.
Min Woo Lee is an incredibly high 9400 salary and yet he is gaining steam in almost every market, probably due to the fact he has made the cut in all majors and plays tough courses well, although he has missed the cut here. Lowry, Kuchar, and Wise will also be popular. We are looking at Pendrith, Gordon, Riley, Barnes, Stevens, Cole and others for mid and low end value.
Others we are tracking include the Coody brothers, Pierceson and Cody. They are twins. Charles Coody, a Masters Champion golfer, is their proud grandfather. They both brought home the 2022 national Championship for The Texas Longhorns. They also both broke their right arms, in the same spot, on the same day, running sprints after golf practice and crashing into the gym wall. Pierceson is the more polished golfer and Cody won his qualifier on Monday to gain entry this week. They are in a pool that the frisky biscuit will come from.
Lets take a look at The Honda Classic DFS DraftKings Ownership Projections. These projections are designed to allow you to pivot off chalk and hit high leverage and value for your rostered teams.

The snake draft format allows the elite Win Daily golf staff to give in depth analysis on top plays and some choice value and leverage plays you wouldn’t normally see.
Last week at Riviera, Tiger Woods kept out distancing JT by 20-30 yards on every hole. As they were walking up the last hole, Tiger discreetly tried to hand him something. It was a Tampax Tampon. Brutal.
Rory said he had to ramp up his smack talk since he was paired with them. All three are known for their searing commentary on the course and about their playing partners, giving as much as they get. It has been that way for many decades. A close up H/D camera caught the wrapped item and chaos erupted.
Tiger ended up apologizing in front of the media. LPGA golfers jumped on him for the perceived slight, though it had absolutely nothing to do with lady golfers. Sprinter Michael Johnson of Olympic track fame called him teflon, as if everything rolls off of him. I’m not sure I would jump in that arena. I’m old enough to remember those solid gold shoes Michael wore when he raced. Usain Bolt broke all his records and wore plain sneakers. Also, when was the last time Michael Johnson was in the news and relevant to social media? Exactly.
As always, I hope to be with you on Sunday afternoon, in the money. You can also come and hang out in the Win Daily Sports Discord Chat to talk it out with everyone before the lock!
