The Course TPC Twin Cities Par 71 - 7,431 Yards Greens - Bentgrass **Click the image above to see a hole-by-hole breakdown from PGATour.com** Previous Three Winners 2021 - Cameron Champ(-15) 2020 - Michael Thompson(-19) 2019 - Matthew Wolff(-21) Top Tier Targets Hideki Matsuyama World Golf Ranking (#14) Vegas Odds (18/1) Draftkings ($10,300) FanDuel ($11,900) We definitely have the "returning from the Open" travel narrative this week but I am not too concerned and will try and target the lowest owned of the group, at least in the top tier. Early indications show Finau and Theegala as the chalk options at the very top and that has me turning to Hideki for leverage. It is a good news/bad news situation and let's start with the latter as he is coming off a T68 at the OPEN and missed cut at the Scottish Open which probably helps drive the lower ownership projection. The good news here is that he is the highest ranking player in the field in terms of OWGR and looking at my short-term model(via FNGC), he ranks 4th in SG: Approach, 1st in Proximity, 6th in Par 4 Scoring, 2nd in Opp Gained, and 10th in Birdie or Better gained and he also has history here with a Top 10 back in 2019. He is my top play in this top tier this week. Adam Hadwin World Golf Ranking (#85) Vegas Odds (20/1) Draftkings ($9,600) FanDuel ($11,400) I really don't trust the chalk at this event so will again look to take some risks with lower-owned players. Coming into the week, I honestly didn't think Hadwin would fall in this category given he has picked up a Top 10 in both trips to TPC Twin Cities but he missed cut at the John Deere and terrible putting recently seem to be driving that as of now....

Pitchers Justin Verlander FD 11100 DK 11100 Opponent - OAK (Jared Koenig) Park - OAK FD - 44.1 DK - 24.47 Max Fried FD 10700 DK 10400 Opponent - WSH (Paolo Espino) Park - WSH FD - 37.66 DK - 20.46 This huge early slate has a major lack of value on the mound which is going to force us to pay up as much as possible. It isn't impossible to pay up for both of these aces so I paired them together as they have a ton of similarities when looking at all the angles. They both go deep into games and average over six innings per start, they both have average K rates of around 25%, and both have been very efficient recently with Fried allowing two or fewer earned runs in nine of his last 10 while Verlander has done so in five of his last six. Then you look at the matchups and both stand out as Fried gets the Nats who have dropped 13 of their last 14 while Verlander gets the A's who rank dead last in wOBA(.252) against right-handed pitching. If you aren't just stacking them together and forcing me to choose between them, I would go Verlander who is at home. Miles Mikolas FD 10000 DK 8700 Opponent - CIN (Nick Lodolo) Park - CIN FD - 34.73 DK - 18.37 I mentioned the lack of value options so we don't go down the board very far to find our top PTS/$ SP2 today. Mikolas has been very similar to the above two options in that the strikeouts have been down but he has been very efficient in holding opponents to two or fewer earned runs in six of his last seven starts. Today he faces a Reds team that has been on a heater as of late but have also struck out at a crazy 29% rate and on the season rank as a bottom-five offence. All things considered on this early slate, Mikolas is in play for me in all formats. Catcher/First Base Trey Mancini FD 3000 DK 2800 Opponent - TB (Ryan Yarbrough) Park - TB FD - 9.08 DK - 6.94 We are going to need some value on this slate and the Orioles provide just that. It starts at first base with Trey Mancini who is not only sub $3K on DraftKings but also comes in red-hot with...

Pitchers Framber Valdez FD 10300 DK 9700 Opponent - LAA (Reid Detmers) Park - LAA FD - 35.12 DK - 18.18 You really can't go wrong at the top as we get three aces including an elite matchup between Burnes and Rodon but I am going to start Valdez. He and the Astros open as -165 favourites as they try to bounce back after a 7-1 loss to the Angels last night. I still like the matchup as the Angels' strikeout the 4th most against lefties and even with last night's 7-spot, have an ugly 59 wRC+ and 34% K rate over the last two weeks. For Valdez, he got hit hard by the Angels back in April but has been elite since posting a  2.37 ERA and has tallied 7+ strikeouts in half of his 14 starts. This is a night where I have pretty even exposure to the top three pitchers in my builds but if having to choose just one, I would go Valdez. Nestor Cortes FD 9900 DK 8800 Opponent - CIN (Luis Castillo) Park - CIN FD - 37.83 DK - 20.81 No situation is going to give you more anxiety coming into tonight than the Yankees pitching. Severino was a -330 favourite last night and got rocked and now Cortes is coming off his worst start of the season in Boston last Friday. The system is not concerned at all as the PTS/$ value is somewhat off the charts as we are now getting Cortes at early season prices. Outside of a few bad starts, he has been tremendous holding opponents to two or fewer earned runs in 11 of 16 starts and despite those mishaps, comes in with a 2.74 ERA/3.66 xFIP and has also shown upside with a 27% K rate. Catcher/First Base Matt Olson FD 3700 DK 4500 Opponent - WSH (Aníbal Sánchez) Park - WSH FD - 13.87 DK - 10.33 Shocker! The Braves are the top projected offence tonight facing Anibal Sanchez making his season debut. He hasn't pitched since 2020 and hasn't been good since joining the Nats with a 4.52 ERA/5.15 xFIP while giving up 33 home runs across 41 starts. For Olson, it comes down to price for me on DraftKings as his teammates surrounding him are all in the $5K/$6K range. The average is never going to be there for Olson but the fantasy numbers rely...

The Course St. Andrews Links(Old Course) Par 72 - 7,313 Yards Greens - Fescue/Bent/Poa **Click the image above to see a hole-by-hole breakdown from PGATour.com** Previous Six OPEN Winners 2021(Royal St. George's) - Collin Morikawa(-15) 2019(Royal Portrush) - Shane Lowry(-15) 2018(Carnoustie) - Francesco Molinari(-8) 2017(Royal Birkdale) - Jordan Spieth(-12) 2016(Royal Troon) - Henrik Stenson(-20) 2015(St. Andrews) - Zach Johnson(-15) Welcome back golf fans. This week the best players in the world head to St. Andrews and the Old Course for the 150th OPEN Championship. Each major championship is unique in its own way and with the OPEN there are many starting with links setup where the weather can play a huge role. The early forecast shows four days of hot and dry weather combined with regular winds in the 12-18 mph range with gusts in the 20-25 mph range. The most important thing with links golf, and especially at the Old Course, is imagination as there are so many different ways to play shots into these huge greens. This definitely pushes the narrative of anyone can win as there is no one player type who excels here, especially with the dried-out, fast fairways which helps the shorter hitters s their drives should get lots of extra run leading to shorter irons. With the largest greens golfers will see all year, Strokes Gained: Approach is one of my top stats at just hitting the green won't exactly get it done. If you are wanting to break it down more, Proximity from the mid ranges(125-150 and 150-175 yards) will be the key zones I will be focusing on this week. Right there with SG: APP this week is Par 4 scoring as the Old Course is made up of 14 Par 4's with just two Par 3's and two Par 5's. The strategy for building lineups at these majors...

Pitchers Aaron Nola FD - P 10100 DK - SP 10000 Opponent - STL (Miles Mikolas) Park - STL FD - 37.06 DK - 20.14 Good luck making the right choice on the mound tonight as we have 4-5 legit options who could be considered top arms on this slate. The interesting part is that not one of them has a matchup that jumps off the page outside of Nola who faces a struggling Cards team that has scored just 11 runs over their last eight games. Nola hasn't been pinpoint recently but has been very consistent going 7+ innings in six straight starts while recording a 2.01 ERA with 41 strikeouts and just five walks. In multi-entry, I will likely have some exposure to each of the top 4 but for cash games, Nola is my top dog. Max Fried FD - P 10400 DK - SP 9600 Opponent - NYM (Max Scherzer) Park - ATL FD - 36.68 DK - 19.85 To say this was a tough choice at SP2 would be an understatement as Fried not only goes up against one of the best in Max Scherzer but also faces a Top 5 Mets offence. While Fried may not have the upside of Max, he has been just as consistent, especially recently as he has held opponents to two or fewer earned runs in eight of his last nine starts for a 1.85 ERA/3.08 xFIP. If there is one positive to take away from this tougher matchup is that the Mets haven't been as good against lefties and Fried looked good against them earlier in the year holding them to four hits and two earned runs while striking out six(23 DK/40 FD). Fried is in play in all formats and is my favourite SP2 on DraftKings if paying up for both pitchers. Also Consider: Merrill Kelly(ARI) who has been terrific holding opponents to two or fewer earned runs in three of his last four facing a struggling Giants team(69 wRC+/25% K rate last 7 days) Catcher/First Base Luke Voit FD - 1B 3200 DK - 1B 3600 Opponent - COL (José Ureña) Park - COL FD - 13.02 DK - 9.77 Eric Hosmer FD - 1B 3000 DK - 1B 2100 Opponent - COL (José Ureña) Park - COL FD - 10.83 DK - 8.35 Paying up for pitching may not be as hard as you think tonight...
