PGA DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for THE CJ CUP Byron Nelson

Who is your favorite golfer for cash games?

Notorious: Adam Scott
stlcardinals84: Adam Scott
hondizzle: K.H. Lee
ezellmt: Si Woo Kim

With windy and stormy weather in the forecast, how are you factoring that into your lineup-building strategy?

Notorious: I don’t mind looking at golfers with a good track record in Texas. More importantly, with wind and rain in the forecast all week, we could see a significant wave advantage when it comes to scoring. For my MME builds, I will be building 25-40% of my lineups with tee-time stacks (on both sides of the draw).

stlcardinals84: I sort of incorporated this into my last answer, but I will utilize more golfers with history playing in Texas. There are often intermittent delays in tournaments down there, and golfers who play well in Texas always seem to pepper leaderboards in this part of the country.

hondizzle: I live in Texas, and it’s windy this time of year. Last week, the wind was brutal, and we should have more of the same at some point this week. This course is not very hard, so I will put less stock in the wind due to how easy the short-game shots should play out. If this were a course like Colonial, then my approach would be a bit different. Weather could play out to be a big deal in terms of wave stacking, but I just tend to only use that approach on maybe 5-10% of my builds.

ezellmt: Recently, I’ve leaned into wave stacking and it’s been successful overall. Since it’s difficult to find tangible edges sometimes, weather is a logical one to try to take advantage of. Once Roth gives his detailed forecast, I’ll evaluate and consider going 6-0 AM/PM or PM/AM depending on the potential weather.

Who do you think is the most likely to get their first PGA TOUR win this week and why?
