The FRB THE FRISKY RISKY BISCUIT!

Whether to trust the Weather

The weather originally projected to give the Thurs aft/ Fri morning wave a boost due to winds. That has subsided to where there is only a minimal edge to the pm/am slot. Saturday late afternoon could bring some rain. The PGA has an incredible air system that allows them to make the course as wet or dry as they like. Don’t expect any changes there, expect the greens to stay rock hard and very fast all 4 days. It is the Players, expect a tough course.

These are the Players Ownership Projections to assist you with a higher ROI.

Welcome to Bay Hill. Make no bones about it, this course is as tough as nails. The API has caused the highest number of penalty strokes in any PGA event in 4 of the last 5 years. Water hazards on 9 holes. Miss the fairway and you will find the meaning of “rough”. Xander is making his return after an injury. Scottie and Rory are the top dogs this year and the 2023 champion, Kitayama didn’t qualify and he did not receive a sponsors exemption. Of the top 50 OWGR ranked golfers only Rasmus Hojgaard turned down the invite. In the last seven years only 1 golfer has managed to play all rounds under 70. It’s Kevin Chappell. He’s playing this week!…just not at Bay Hill. The API Ownership Projections are here to help you reach your goals.

What to Watch

You need to catch the PGA DraftCast, hosted by DraftMasterFlex Joel and featuring Sia and Spencer and Deep Dive Dave who drop in to battle you, along with the audience, for supremacy on the draft board. Where else can you get three world class golf handicappers and a running text by the experts and audience (you too) that’s hilarious and educational. It’s every Tuesday night at 9:00 EST and is engaging, interactive and you will get a kick out of it. Check it out!

At the end of the DraftCast the experts put out their betting picks. Deep Dive Dave’s bets for 2024 would have put you up $3200 @10.00 per play. Dave hit again with another outright on Aberg at The Genesis. I say again for this is a weekly occurrence. Sia and Joel were high on him as well.

Do you ever get the feeling of Deja-Vu? Almost like we’ve been here before? We were, about a month ago. The difference is measurable. That was a full field. This is a signature field with golf’s best. They’ve left the rough to grow out a tad. Vegas has set the winning score to be over/under 8, which Harris English won with at The Farmers. The birdie fests are done for at least this week, consider the longest course on tour with small greens. The goal is distance, accuracy, and scoring in tough comp conditions, such as Beth Page Black.

Greetings from Placencia, Belize. This international report of the WMPO is brought to you by Win Daily Sports. We are at the largest cocktail party on grass. The record is 655,000 patrons at this tourney that has a hole where you feel like a gladiator. When you have hundreds of thousands of patrons drinking adult beverages all morning it can get a little hairy. This year they have implemented a 0 tolerance policy. Sure. of course. You must have nerves of steel and enjoy the eruption of the massive crowds whether good or bad. Bombers can do well here but they better be accurate. Look at course history as a gauge to guide you. This course has the third most predictive metrics behind Augusta and Waialae CC. The WMPO Ownership Projections are here to help you reach your goals.

FUN FACT: Ever since 2006, every winner of the AT&T had placed 21st or better the previous year. 19 years of history may make it relevant. Or not. This is a signature event. 45 of the top 50 golfers in the world will tee it up at Pebble Beach. They will rotate between Pebble and Spyglass and play Pebble on the weekend. One of the lofty goals of the golfers is to hit the smallest greens on tour and have them hold the green as well on hard Poa. Jordan Spieth will be popular this week even after coming off surgery on his repaired wrist. The AT&T Ownership Projections are here to help you reach your goals.

This week we are at legendary Torrey Pines for The Farmers. This format will consist of rotation on the north and south courses with the famous 7700 yard south course being played three times to the norths one. There will be a cut after 36 holes and the final two rounds will be on the south course. We go back to 65 and ties for the cutline. You need an accurate driver, approach from 200 + and a sharp short game. The birdy fest says bye bye bye. Course history could be gleaned from the 2021 US Open. It played all 4 rounds on a slightly more difficult south course. The FARMERS Ownership Projections are here to help you reach your goals.

Last week both of our selections made the cut. When you have two golfers in the mid six salary range make the weekend the leverage is optimal.

This week we go Hawaii island hopping to The Sony. This course doesn’t favor bombers, it’s a precision course that rewards a short game. Hitting the fairway is key this week, last week you had fairways you could land a 747 on. They changed the cut in the Bermuda rough from 2.25 inches to 3 inches in 2023 and that stays. Driving accuracy will count as well as approach from 125-175. The goal is to hit the tree lined narrow fairways, then a decent swing into the Bermuda greens, and finally to putt your ass off to score a ton of DFS points. The Sony Ownership Projections will assist you in reaching your goals.

A minister of a local church was an avid golfer. He loved the game. The problem was it rained six days a week and it was beautiful every Sunday. This went on for months until he couldn’t stand it anymore. One Sunday morning he lied, told his church he was sick and took his clubs to another town and another golf course. St Peter and God were observing this and St. Peter asked how this pure man of the cloth could do this to his church. God assuredly told Peter he would be punished. The pastor begin to play lights out and ended up having two holes in one. He was jumping up and down with joy over his greatest round ever. St Peter looked at God and asked, “how can you let him have two holes in one and call that punishment??” God spoke calmly and with resolve and said, “Just let him try to tell anyone he knows about it.”

After only 7 weeks of PGA off season, we are back baby! Welcome to the Sentry Ownership Projections. This is a signature event of past champions as well as top 50 golfers from 2024. There are currently 60 golfers who will tee it up in Hawaii and it’s a no cut event. The big news is Scotty is out. There is no truth to the rumor that he cut himself while trying to stab a Chucky Cheese security guard. Maybe those types of uniforms bring back bad memories.(smile) The goal is to find the long hitters with a good/great short game who can roll them in from tabletop greens. The Sentry Ownership Projections will assist you in reaching your goals.

Welcome to the RSM Ownership Projections. The Mafia is back! The Sea Isle Mafia. That’s the term used for the golfers that live and play golf here year round. They’re used to the two courses, Plantation and Seaside, and the only real hazard is the wind coming in off the Atlantic. Each golfer plays both courses once, then after the cut they play the slightly more difficult Seaside course the last two days. The goal is to make many birdies on the Plantation course and ride out the Seaside course and any weather concerns. The RSM Ownership Projections will assist you in reaching your goals.

***UPDATES**** 7 of the last 9 champions have started Thursday on the Plantation course. Brian Harman in his presser: ” I’ve been doing way more hunting than golfing this fall.” Brian can you win this week? “Look, I’m here to support this community and this great tourney.” Aberg had surgery right after the FedEx and has barely played since- (he did look sharp in his practice rounds yesterday) Chris Kirk in his presser. “I’ve been playing a lot of golf lately, I’m playing much more left handed right now because my present goal is to break 80 left handed.” (he was serious)

Our Biscuit selection last week missed the cut and blew chunks AND another selection we had, Rafael Campos, was 6600 salary and owned by 0.2 % of the field.
