Arnold Palmer Invitational Bay Hill Club & Lodge, Orlando, Florida Par 72, 7381 Yards This week the PGA Tour heads to Orlando for the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill. The field is smaller but still a solid 120 golfers. Tiger, who is not in the field this week, has dominated this course winning 8 times in his career. Bay Hill is another typical Florida course with sand, water and wind to protect itself. Matt Every took down last year's tournament with a -13, narrowly beating Keegan Bradley's -12. A score of -13 has won the tournament 3 years in a row and before that Martin Laird won with a -8 in 2011. The fairways and greens are tough to hit so accuracy will be important off the tee. Distance does't seem to be at a premium so I will use Total Driving this week which is a combination of Distance and Accuracy. Also, when you look at the Par 5's the longest is a 525 yards so I will be using Par 5 performance as a key stat as well. With the rough usually pretty tough here and with the amount of bunkers in play I will also consider scrambling as well. Here is a list of the stats I am looking at this week. Total Driving Scrambling Strokes Gained:Tee to Green Par 5 Performance Tier 1 Targets (DK Price $9000-Max) Henrik Stenson - $12,500 (Vegas Odds – 12/1) First on my list this week comes before Draftkings pricing is released. I am picking Henrik no matter the price this week and I don't think he will be the most expensive(Rory, bubba). Henrik has made 6/6 cuts here in his career with some nice recent finishes(2014-T5, 2013-T8, 2012-T15). His current form is also where #3 in the world should be with a solo 4th at the Valspar and a T4 at WGC. He doesn't have enough rounds in 2015 to compile stats but his 2014 stats back up his World Rank and current form. Total Driving - 2014(2nd) Scrambling - 2014(171) SG:Tee to Green - 2014(11) Par 5 Perf - 2014(91) Hideki Matsyuma - $9,600 (Vegas Odds – 29/1) As a stats guy, Hideki Matsyuma always seems to fall under the radar for me. He is one of the most consistent golfers on Tour and it doesn't ever seem to matter what course he plays. He has only missed...

PGA Daily Fantasy Picks WGC Cadillic Championship DFSR is proud to bring you our newest contributor Chris Durell.

WGC Cadillic Championship Trump National Doral Par 72, 7481 Yards This week’s tournament is a World Golf Championship event which features no cut. This event has been played at Trump National Doral since 2007 and up until last year’s tournament the average score was around -17. Following Tiger Woods win in 2013 the course was re designed by Gil Hanse, who is designing the course for the 2016 Olympics. The course was lengthened, especially the Par 5 1st hole, which was one of the tour’s easiest Par 5’s. The other big change made to the course was the addition of strategic water placement. The old design seen water come into play on 6 holes where as the new design sees water on 10 holes. The wind at Doral is no longer the only defense for the course. The course has four Par 5’s, Four Par 3’s, and 10 Par 4’s. The early weather forecast is showing some wind, but not like this past week. There is chance of rain for Saturday but for the most part it looks to be nice weather for the event. For this week’s picks I have split all the golfers into 3 tiers. I will provide analysis on three Tier 1 golfers, three Tier 2 Golfers and two Tier 3 golfers. I will be looking closely at current form this week as this will be a tough test for struggling players to turn it around. Due to the course re design I will be looking mostly at 2014 results for course history but will also look back to 2007 to see who plays well at Doral. The stats I am crunching this week are: Driving Distance Strokes Gained:Tee to Green Strokes Gained:Putting Greens in Regulation Par 4 Scoring Average Par 5 Scoring Average Tier 1 Targets (DK Price $8000-MAX) Bubba Watson - $12,400 (Vegas Odds – 15/1) Both years Bubba Watson won the Masters at Augusta he finished 2nd at this tournament. He also sandwiched a T18 in between in 2013. Bubba has started this year very strong with three top 15’s(Northern Trust-T14, Phoenix Open-T2, Tournament of Champions-10). When you combine his course history, current form and the following stats, Bubba becomes a top pick for this week and should have a chance to win. Driving Distance - 2014(1) 2015(14) SG:Tee to Green - 2014(7) 2015(9) SG:Putting - 2014(110) 2015(26) Greens in Reg - 2014(24)...

PGA Daily Fantasy Picks PGA Honda Classic DFSR is proud to bring you our newest contributor Chris Durell. He'll be bringing weekly PGA picks, analysis and breakdowns to help you cash on DraftKings.

PGA Honda Classic Course PGA National(Champion), Palm Beach Gardens, Florida Par 70 7140 Yards This week the PGA Tour travels to Florida for the Honda Classic. It is the beginning of the Florida swing and the PGA National has hosted the event since 2007. The course is known for its famous 3 hole stretch called “the bear trap” which got its name when Jack Nicklaus redesigned the course to make it tougher than it previously was. The course is a Par 70 setup with only 2 Par 5’s and 4 Par 3’s. The wind in Florida can howl making this a very tough test as most holes are guarded by a collection of Sand Bunkers and Water. Accuracy off the tee and around the green is crucial for this event. If you are targeting golfers who don’t hit the greens regularly, you need them to be very good scramblers, especially from the sand. Here are the stats I will be concentrating on this week: Ball Striking SG: Tee to Green SG: Putting GIR Scrambling Par 3 Performance Tier 1 Targets (DK Price $9000-Max) Note: With Rory’s return to the USA it puts his rice well above all other golfers this week and making him a fade for me. You can acquire the same upside for less salary and fit better golfers around him without taking risks with scrubs. Justin Rose - $10,800 (Vegas Odds – 21/1) It’s Rose’s first tournament on the PGA Tour since the Farmers where he had a bogey-filled first round to send him home before the weekend. There are no 2015 stats updated for Rose yet on the PGA so I looked at his 2014 stats closely as well as his 2 starts on Euro Tour in 2015. He has 2 top 13 finishes on Euro Tour so far and is hitting greens at a 75% Clip. His Scrambling is also ranked 12th on Euro Tour so far at 68%. His 2014 stats on PGA Tour are also good (Ball Striking-47th, SG:Tee to Green-4th, GIR-41st, Scrambling-31st) His course history is what really made him my top target. His last 3 starts here saw him go T4, T5, Solo 3rd. He has made 4/5 cuts here since the tournament moved to PGA National in 2007. Brooks Koepka - $9,500 (Vegas Odds – 34/1) Brooks has not played since the Farmers a few weeks ago where he finished...
