Walker became the 4th first time major winner of the season(Willett, DJ, Stenson, Walker) making it just the 5th time in history this has happened. If you are a fan of parity on the PGA Tour, there is no better time in golf than right now! Let's move on to next week. This week the PGA Tour head to the TPC River Highlands in Cromwell, Connecticut for the 2016 Travelers Championship. The course is a Par 70 setup that isn't very long at 6,841 yards. Players of all makeups have a shot here which opens up the field in a big way from a DFS standpoint. There have been bombers and accuracy players who have had success here but one thing has been common through the years. The guys at the top of leaderboard hit a ton of greens and make plenty of birdies. For this reason I will be weighting Par 4 Scoring, Birdie or Better %, GIR and Proximity from 125-150 and 150-175 Yards. The winning score has been between -12 and -20 over the past five years so scoring will be huge this week. Let's take a look at some picks. Below is a list of the key stats I am using in my model on the cheatsheet this week: Strokes Gained: Approach Strokes Gained: Around the Green Par 4 Scoring Average Birdie or Better % Proximity from 125-150 Yards Proximity from 150-175 Yards Greens in Regulation If you have any questions leading up to lineup lock Thursday morning you can reach me in a variety of ways.

Click Here to Purchase PGA Lineups PGA Championship Baltusrol Golf Club - Springfield, NJ Par 70 - 7,428 Yards The RBC Canadian Open is now in the books and it was Jhonattan Vegas shooting a final round 64 to capture the trophy. It was very disappointing for the top 2 ranked Canadians, Graham DeLaet and David Hearn but we got a glimpse into some up and coming talent. Four Canadians in total made the cut(De Toit, Rank, Conners, Hadwin) with Jared De Toit making the final group on Sunday and eventually finishing with a tie for 9th. Other notable Top 10's came from Dustin Johnson(T2), Jon Rahm(T2), Brandt Snedeker(T5), and Matt Kuchar(T7). With a just a week removed from the OPEN Championship we head into the final Major of the season. Let's get started. Due to the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio the PGA Championship has been pushed up into July giving us our second Major Championship in three weeks. The final major of the year, the PGA Championship, brings us to Springfield, New Jersey to the historic Baltusrol Golf Club. The course was opened in 1922 and put lead architect, A.W. Tillinghast, on the map. It was the first time two 18 hole golf courses had been built side by side at the same time. Baltrusol is also one of only four golf courses(Chambers Bay, Baltrusol GC, Oakmont CC, and Merion GC) in America to be named a historic landmark. The course last hosted the PGA Championship back in 2005 when Phil Mickelson birdied the 72nd hole to win by one stroke over Thomas Bjorn and Steve Elkington. The course is a Par 70 that stretches out to a lengthy 7,428 yards. The fairways are going to be tough to hit putting an emphasis on the longer hitters off the tee as they will have shorter approaches and much easier clubs to navigate from the rough. Not to say that the shorter, accuracy guys can't succeed here but they will need to be spot on with their irons for 200+ this week. All four Par 3's are also all over 196 yards putting more emphasis on accuracy from...
Daily Fantasy PGA Picks for DraftKings – RBC Canadian Open

Click Here to Purchase PGA Lineups RBC Canadian Open Glen Abbey Golf Club - Oakville, Ontario Par 72 - 7,253 Yards It turned out to be a two man show at the OPEN Championship as Henrik Stenson and Phil Mickelson when shot for shot giving us one hell of a Sunday afternoon show. It was Stenson and his final round 63 that eventually won out by three strokes. He finished at -20 with Mickelson at -17, which was still 11 shots clear of J.B. Holmes in third place. We now turn our attention to another countries national open before heading to Springfield, New Jersey for the PGA Championship and the years final major. Let's dig in. This week the PGA Tour heads to Glen Abbey Golf Club in Oakville, Ontario for the RBC Canadian Open. It will be the 28th time Glen Abbey has hosted the event and second year in a row. Most recently, it also hosted in 2013, 2009 and 2008. The course is a 7,253 yard, Par 72 that sits smack in the middle of Hamilton and Toronto just off of Lake Ontario. There is plenty of sand traps scattered around the fairways and greens with a ton of water as well including the 16 mile river which comes into play on the back nine. Over the years there has been a mix of long hitters and accuracy guys who have had success here but one thing is common and that is Total Driving. Distance can only provide an advantage if it is accurate here. A drive placed in the wrong position can leave a tough approach with the amount of trees that come into play. Along with Total Driving I will be weighting Sand Save %, Birdie or Better %, GIR, and most of all Par 5 Scoring. Looking at last years Top 10 you will notice that their combined score on the Par 5's was -102 while Par 4 Scoring total was -16 and Par 3 was -6. A large majority of a players score will come on those four holes this week. Below is a list of the key stats...

It is a very exciting time for the sports as drivers will be facing a different style of track for the 6th straight week starting back at Pocono, Michigan, Sonoma, Daytona, Kentucky and now New Hampshire. The track is a 1.058 mile oval flat track that can be best compared to Phoenix and is also similar to Richmond and Martinsville in that they are all flat. Passing will tough and drivers will be forced to use a ton of brakes to get through the 12° banked corners. Not only will track history at New Hampshire be very relevant but I will also look at recent track history form other flat tracks, specifically Phoenix. Track position is extremely important this so I will be weighting qualifying quite high. There has not been a winner who has started outside of 13th in since Denny Hamlin won from the 32nd starting position back in September 2012. Before we get into the picks for this week let's take a look back at the finish to last years New Hampshire 301 where we witnessed one of the best passes in a long time(In my biased Kyle Busch fan opinion).

Click Here to Purchase PGA Lineups The Open Championship Royal Troon Golf Club - Ayrshire, Scotland Par 71 - 7,190 Yards With flooding in West Virginia forcing the cancellation of the Greenbrier the focus for the remaining OPEN Championship spots turned to the European Tour's Scottish Open last weekend. It was Alex Noren taking home the hardware with the final four spots going Tyrell Hatton, Nicolas Colsaerts, Matteo Manassero, and Richie Ramsay. The field is now set for the OPEN Championship and will consist of 156 players. The Tour heads to Ayrshire, Scotland this week for the 145th OPEN Championship. It will be the 9th time that Royal Troon Golf Club has hosted the tournament with the first in 1923. The course is one of the most famous Links golf courses on the planet and was established back in 1878. It is set on Scotlands west coastline and it's biggest defense is the wind. That isn't Troon's only defense though as golfers will face extremely thick rough and near impossible fairway bunkers. Don't believe me? Watch this short video below: As you can see it is going to be an interesting tournament to follow with the two distinctly different nines. The front nine with the wind at a players back makes a round in the 20's very doable and Birdie or Better % an important stat for me this week. The back nine is much harder playing into the wind combined with longer average yardage per hole which will result in me weighting Bogey Avoidance and Scrambling as well. As always I will look closely as the Strokes Gained metrics for the PGA Tour players with most weight on Off the Tee and Around the Green. If you are playing the Milli Maker this week you will notice a slight change in the setup. The cost has been pushed up to $33 with the entries capped at 105,000. After the Million Dollar top prize the payouts drop significantly with the 2nd place finisher taking in just $150,000. Not that that isn't a life changing amount for most people, the point is that is is a super...
