Sentry Tournament of Champions Happy New Year fantasy golf fans. The 2018 portion of the season kicks off this week with the Sentry Tournament of Champions and while it's a small field/no cut event, GOLF IS BACK!! There will be 34 golfers, all winners in 2017,  traveling to Kapalua to take on the Plantation Course which is a unique Par 73 setup that stretches out to 7,452 yards. It consists of just three Par 3's with 11 Par 4's and four Par 5's and has seen an average score of -21 over the last five years so Birdie's will most definitely be at a premium. As you can see with the hole composition below(via Fantasy National Golf Club), five of the Par 4's fall between 350 and 400 yards so I will be looking closely at the players who excelled from that range in 2017, especially down the stretch and into the fall season. The fairways are very wide and forgiving which will take a bit away from the Strokes Gained: Off the Tee and Accuracy element and although the greens are also larger than average, I am using Strokes Gained: Approach with an emphasis on Proximity. The greens are very undulated and slow so players who can get the ball closer to the pin consistently will have a way better shot at making Birdies. I will also be looking at players who are consistently better putters overall(Strokes Gained: Putting) and combining that with three-putt avoidance. Course History is another key this week and right behind the stats model this week. There are 14 players who have never played in this tournament and only three players(Spieth, DJ, Dufner) who have played here more than twice in the last five years. Current form is last up in the overall model but one thing I will be looking at is how active...

RSM Classic Welcome back golf fans. This week the PGA Tour heads to Sea Island, Georgia for the RSM Classic. Since changing names three years ago(formerly the McGladrey Classic), the event has been played at two different venues here at Sea Island Resort for the first two days of the event. Golfers will get a crack at both the Seaside and Plantation courses on Thursday and Friday and those who make the cut will then play their final two rounds of golf on the Seaside course on Saturday and Sunday. Both courses are on the short side so I when weighing Strokes gained: Off the Tee this week, I will putting emphasis on accuracy once again. This is, even more, key on the Seaside course where a majority of the holes have water and/or bunkers and marsh just outside the primary rough area. The Seaside course is also a Par 70 and has 12 par 4's and looking at the hole composition below, you will notice that nine of those Par 4's fall between 400 and 450 yards so that will something I will be looking at closely as well. The average winning score here over the past five years has been -16 and even saw a tournament low -22 two years when Kevin Kisner took home the hardware. The other factor to pay attention to this week will be the weather as the course is a Links-Style setup being on the coast. Looking at the weather update at the bottom of the article, the wind looks to be worse on Friday but not too terribly bad at the moment. I won't be putting too much emphasis on it besides maybe targeting a few more players playing on the Plantation course on Friday as it is more inland than the Seaside course. Tee times are not yet listed so be sure to...

Also, be sure to grab your copy of Chris's DFS PGA Weekly cheatsheet.   Shriners Hospitals for Children Open Welcome back for another week of daily fantasy golf. Not counting the Sanderson Farms Championship, we are back to a full field event for the first time since the Safeway Open at the start of October. That also means we get back to regular viewing times but that makes me somewhat sad as I really enjoyed the late night golf we got at the CIMB Classic(Malaysia), CJ Cup(Korea), and WGC-HSBC Champions(China) events. This week the Tour heads back to Las Vegas and TPC Summerlin for the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open. It's a weaker field with none of the Top 10 players and only five of the Top 50 players(Hoffman, Chappell, Simpson, Finau, Woodland) in the world golf rankings. Regardless of the field strength, there are some excellent storylines including A.J. McInerney's first career PGA Tour start in his hometown of Las Vegas. Not only did he grow up in Vegas and go to UNLV, he was also a survivor of the tragic shootings a month ago. I won't be on him for DFS this week as I feel the emotions of his first start in this setting will be a lot to overcome to play some top golf but it will be impossible not to pull for him. The course this week is a Par 71 setup that stretches out to 7,255 yards. There are three average Par 3 holes under 200 yards and one longer one that comes in at 239 yards. As a Par 71, there are three Par 5's, two of which are of average length with the third coming in over 600 yards and will be only reachable in two by the longest of hitters. With just three Par 5's, there is one extra Par 4 this week(11 total) which is the reason you will see the Par 4 Scoring weighted a bit higher than Par 5 Scoring this week but both will be vital to...

I hope you are enjoying the start of the new PGA Tour season and if you have paid close enough attention you might notice it has a similar feel as a year ago as the first three tournament winners(Brendan Steele, Pat Perez, Justin Thomas) were all winners in the fall portion of the 2016-17 season. The players now travel to Sheshan International Golf Club in Shanghai, China for the seasons first WGC event, the HSBC Champions. Hideki Matsuyama returns as the defending champion in a stacked 78-player field that includes five of the Top 10 and 33 of the Top 50 players in the world. The course is designed in a forest-like setting with a ton of trees combined with elevation changes, rolling landscape and water hazards that are present on 11 of the 18 holes. Over the past four years, we have seen a mix of long hitters and accuracy players succeed here and it has to do with the varying hole lengths and options off the tee. There will be a handful of holes where players can choose to go less-than-driver off the tee to get a better position for their approach shots and for those pulling out driver, they will need to be somewhat accurate with all the hazards present which will greatly reduce their chances of hitting a green in regulation. Speaking of approach shots, I will be looking closer at Proximity this week with the rolling multi-tiered greens. The winning score over the past four years has exceeded -20 three times which elevates the importance of Birdie or Better % which correlates very closely to Draftkings scoring. I will also be splitting Par 4 and 5 scoring as the players who have had the most success here have done well on both(Ross Fisher, Marc Leishman, Dustin Johnson, Hideki Matsuyama, Henrik Stenson). Below is a look at the Strokes Gained leaders...

It is a big week for the PGA Tour as it visits Korea for the very first time for the CJ Cup @ Nine Bridges. That means we will be throwing course history out the window this week and concentrating solely on players who fit the stats model and current form model on the cheatsheet. Speaking of the stats model, it will be pretty tough to narrow down specifically what will be the biggest impact so I am going pretty straightforward with the model this week. Strokes Gained: Ball Striking is always at the top of the list and with the course looking fairly tough with tons of sand and some tough greens, I will also be looking at Strokes Gained: Around the Green and Bogey Avoidance to go along with Birdie or Better %. With all that said, let's jump in and take a look at some of the top picks for this week. The Course The Club at Nine Bridges - Jeju Island, KOR Par 72 - 7,196 Yards **Click to check out the Hole by Hole Breakdown at PGATour.com**   Top Stats in the Model Strokes Gained: Ball Striking(Off the Tee+ Approach) Strokes Gained: Around the Green Bogey Avoidance Birdie or Better % Par 5 Scoring Top Current Form Targets Paul Casey World Golf Ranking (#14) Vegas Odds (9/1) Draftkings ($11,600) FanDuel ($9,700) Casey topped the current form section last week and it paid if you rostered him. It didn't look good early as he opened with a 77 but he bounced back in a big way with a 63 on Friday, 69 on Saturday, and capped off the weekend with a final round 65 to finish with yet another Top 10 and 102 DraftKings points. Dating back to last season(not that long ago), he has finished Top 10 in seven of his last 11...
