Horse For The Course: PGA DFS Course History - 2025 Rocket Classic
After an exciting U.S. Open, last week's Travelers Championship had just as much drama down the stretch. Current U.S. Ryder Cup Captain, Keegan Bradley, made a birdie on the 72nd to overtake Tommy Fleetwood by one shot after the Englishman made a bogey from the front of the green. It was a gutwrenching end to […]

Sungjae Im Still Totally Useless For DFS Ahead of Travelers Championship
The weeks continue to roll by without Sungjae Im doing anything particularly impressive. The highly regarded ball striker just hasn't found anything in that department in 2025, ranking 174th in strokes gained on approach (-0.911). However, every other part of his game has been pretty respectable, ranking 36th or better in all other strokes gained […]

Ryan Fox Looks to Continue Hot Run at TPC River Highlands
It was an admirable T19 finish at the U.S. Open for Ryan Fox after winning in Canada the week before. The strong performance with the iron play continued, as it was his third consecutive event averaging more than +1.10 strokes gained per round. His spotty short game and poor accuracy off the tee are enough […]

Jordan Spieth Makes a Strong Case at Travelers Championship
After impressive performances at both the Memorial Tournament and last week's U.S. Open, Jordan Spieth is showing remarkable form heading to TPC River Highlands. The former Longhorn averaged +2.17 strokes gained on approach at Oakmont and ranks 39th on the season in strokes gained off the tee (+0.302). The hectic nature of the 31-year-old on […]

Rory McIlroy a Good Course Horse at TPC River Highlands
After squeaking by the cut Friday at Oakmont, Rory McIlroy unpleasantly played the remaining 36 holes at one-over par after a charming three-under 67 on Sunday. His talks afterwards with the media have overtaken anything he did inside the ropes and have made himself a hard DFS sell at nearly every event the rest of […]

Scottie Scheffler Looks to Defend Title at Travelers Championship
It wasn't meant to be for Scottie Scheffler last week at Oakmont. Winning doesn't happen when you miss as many short putts over the final 36 holes as the world no. 1 did. The data will say it was his play off the tee (-0.12) that squandered his chances, and while it certainly wasn't up […]

Viktor Hovland a Strong Play at Travelers Championship
Another chance at a major championship wasn't meant to be for Viktor Hovland this past week at the U.S. Open. But it was an intriguing sign of form for a player who seems to go from completely lost to contending for major titles weekly. The rough at Oakmont was no match for him, hitting just […]

Sam Burns' Near Miss at Oakmont May Not Mean Big Things at Travelers
If there was anyone in contention that you felt for on Sunday at the U.S. Open, Sam Burns had to be it. One iffy rules call from two different USGA officials likely cost him a chance at the very end, but that certainly wasn't everything that thwarted his efforts. As driver-dependent as Oakmont was, he […]

Ludvig Aberg Looks to Rebound at Travelers Championship
After back-to-back top 20 finishes before last week's U.S. Open, the missed cut was a bit surprising for Ludvig Aberg, since he arguably established himself as someone who shines on difficult setups. Other than around the green (-1.16), it wasn't that bad of a week from a statistical perspective. The short game struggles will make […]

Horse For The Course: PGA DFS Course History - 2025 Travelers Championship
What a week it was in Oakmont, PA, for the 125th U.S. Open. Rain and chaos ruled the week, as J.J. Spaun overcame five bogeys in his first six holes to win his first major championship in what was an all-time classic. Even with questionable decisions down the stretch that arguably decided the outcome, it […]

Round 4 PGA DFS Showdown Picks - 2025 U.S. Open
The 125th U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club is proving to be as big a brute as advertised, as four players are managing to enter the final round under par. Scoring has been as difficult as any in recent memory, though with the rain that ended play early on Friday and was on-and-off Saturday, the […]

PGA DFS Weekend Slate Picks - 2025 U.S. Open
What is up, RotoBallers! We are taking a stab at a fresh DFS article that focuses on weekend golf and who I like to make a move or remain steady through the final two rounds of this year's U.S. Open. Whether this becomes a regular post remains to be seen, but, for now, let's have […]

Round 4 PGA DFS Showdown Picks - 2025 RBC Canadian Open
With one week remaining until the U.S. Open, the PGA Tour's best have made their way to TPC Toronto this week for the RBC Canadian Open. In improbable fashion, Matteo Manessaro finds himself in a tie for the lead with Ryan Fox at -14 under par. This year's event is absent of any real big […]

Tom Kim is an Absolute Must-Avoid at TPC Toronto
The disappointing season looks destined to continue for Tom Kim this week in Canada, unless everything about what we've seen from the South Korean over his last six starts does a drastic about-face. Since the first stop in Texas at the Valero, Kim has averaged -0.958 strokes gained on approach and -0.276 off the tee. […]

Harry Higgs Struggling to Stay Afloat on PGA Tour Ahead of RBC Canadian Open
The return to the PGA Tour hasn't quite been what Harry Higgs has needed to feel any sense of job security for next season. He's only managed one quality finish, which came at the alternate Myrtle Beach Event (T2) a few weeks ago. That was good enough to secure a spot in last week's event […]

Ludvig Aberg Back in Golf's Good Graces Ahead of RBC Canadian Open
It's undoubtedly been a strange season thus far for Ludvig Aberg, who bounced back from three poor outings that included a missed cut at the PGA last week in Dublin. The Swede gained strokes in all facets at Muirfield Village, but a final round 66 was the only thing that made his week even remotely […]

Keith Mitchell is an Intriguing Play at RBC Canadian Open
Things have cooled off for Keith Mitchell since his run through the latter part of the spring events, with a missed cut at Quail Hollow and a T36 at Colonial. His short game has let him down, losing nearly six shots in strokes gained around the green over that span, while also dipping a significant […]

Karl Vilips is a Volatile Play With Upside at TPC Toronto
Coming off a T11 at Colonial a couple of weeks ago, Karl Vilips is making the trip to Canada this week, looking to keep the momentum going. With his finish in Texas making just his second quality finish in eight starts since his win in Puerto Rico, the 23-year-old needs to get more if he […]

Shane Lowry is Taking His Consistent Game to TPC Toronto
The successful season continued for Shane Lowry last week in Dublin, finishing T23 after a disappointing 77 on Sunday. Even without a victory, the 38-year-old is a part of the conversation on a weekly basis with exquisite iron play, ranking 3rd on the PGA Tour in strokes gained on approach (+0.895). There is a slight […]

Nick Taylor Looks to Carry Momentum Back to Canada for His National Open
It was an impressive bounce-back last week at the Memorial for Nick Taylor after a disappointing missed cut at the PGA Championship. It was the Canadian's second-highest performance in strokes gained putting (+1.20) and strokes gained around the green all season (+1.11). He returns to his national open, where he won at Oakdale Golf and […]

Luke Clanton Making First Professional Start at RBC Canadian Open
The long-awaited debut as a PGA Tour member and fresh face to the professional ranks, Luke Clanton, will tee it up at TPC Toronto this week alongside his new set of peers at the RBC Canadian Open. There are many eager to see what this young man will do on the circuit should his career […]

Round 4 PGA DFS Showdown Picks - 2025 Memorial Tournament
This week at Muirfield Village, the PGA Tour's best players have been hit with everything imaginable to throw them off their games. A difficult golf course mixed with every element Mother Nature can unleash has been the story this week in Dublin, Ohio, for the Memorial Tournament. The masterpiece that Jack Nicklaus built never seems […]

Max Homa Still in Fantasy Golf Purgatory at Memorial Tournament
After a disappointing weekend at the PGA Championship, Max Homa returns to competition this week at Muirfield Village, where he's finished T6-T5-T22 the last three years. He showed a drastic sign of life Friday at Quail Hollow, shooting a -7 under par, 64. What followed was the same detrimental play that's plagued him for much […]

Stephan Jaeger is a Scary Play at Muirfield Village
With someone as deadly with the irons as Stephan Jaeger, Jack's place seems like a great place for the 35-year-old to build on his decent season. While driving the ball far isn't a concern at Muirfield, the accuracy needed off the tee is perhaps just as much of the recipe as approach play. The 35-year-old […]

Jordan Spieth Looks to Turn the Corner at Muirfield Village
Jordan Spieth's return to golf has been as successful as most tour pros could hope for, but he has found some difficulty of late with T34, a missed cut and T36 finishes over his last three starts. Being a recipient of a coveted sponsor's exemption into this week's Memorial Tournament hasn't sat well with PGA […]

Corey Conners Looks to Take His Strong Play to Jack's Place
Since the WM Phoenix Open, Corey Conners has only failed to finish inside the top 25 once over his last nine starts. The consistent play from a ball striking perspective has been some of the best on the PGA Tour. He's as accurate as they come, ranking ninth in greens in regulation (69.89%) and 11th […]

Keegan Bradley Trending in Right Direction Ahead of Memorial Tournament
After catching a cold with his putter, Keegan Bradley turned in a great T8 finish at Quail Hollow to keep eyebrows raised at the current Ryder Cup Captain heading into the summer. Before the PGA Championship, Bradley had averaged -0.957 on the greens over his previous four starts. He basically broke even in Charlotte, which […]

Justin Thomas a Concerning Play With Undeniable Upside at Memorial Tournament
After winning in Hilton Head and nearly doing it again in Pennsylvania, Justin Thomas was among the more surprising names to miss the cut at Quail Hollow a couple of weeks ago. It was where he won his first major in 2017, and somewhere he's continuously performed well over the years. The approach play took […]

Shane Lowry Isn't a Fun Pick to Make at Muirfield Village
There are seemingly two observations about the outlook for Shane Lowry this week at the Memorial Tournament. One is his meltdown at Quail Hollow, which was in response to an obscure situation involving his ball and another player's pitch mark. The other is the recollection of a final round, 85 in this event last year […]

Collin Morikawa Looking to Change Recent Trends at Memorial Tournament
Since the Masters, Collin Morikawa has struggled to keep things steady over his last four starts. A leaky short game was beginning to rear its head in Georgia, but after averaging -0.216 in strokes gained around the green over his last five starts, it's clearly the most concerning part ahead of a difficult test at […]
