This week is totally different, you have round robin match play Wednesday through Friday, and then single elimination after the winner of each of the 16 groups moves to the weekend. A lot of the cheaper Euro guys people would target left for LIV, so this will be a fun, yet tough, week.

We get the last of the Florida swing here this week for the Valspar, which falls in between elevated events, so the field is not quite as strong as we would like. The main culprit here is the guys who went to LIV always played this course and did well here, so now we have a few top end guys mixed with up-and-comers.

This week we get the “fifth major” on tour, The Players Championship. This tournament has a lot of randomness to it, with favorites like Justin Thomas winning, while having people like Si Woo win at 500-1. There’s water everywhere, one bad shot can end your tournament, and if the winds pick up, it’s one of the most difficult on tour.

We move from the mediocre field of last week to another elevated event for the Arnold Palmer Invitational. This is another completely stacked field full of the best players in the world. This is a pretty difficult course, as weather affects it year in and out and you’ll see winning scores as low as 4-5 under, instead of the 16 under or better we’ve been accustomed to seeing at other events.

Reality check this week going from back to back elevated events with amazing fields to this field for the Honda Classic. It’s a bad spot on the schedule for this course, and most guys skip it due to being tough and the run of tournaments the next six weeks that they want to play. This course can be absolutely brutal if the wind kicks up, there was a year a few back where lineups with 2/6 making the cut cashed. This is typically an event where chalk dies, but we are here for the carnage and may variance be on our side.

We move on to Tiger’s tourney in LA this week for the Genesis Invitational. We have another absolutely loaded field, including Tiger himself playing. This course has a few gettable holes, but will play fairly tough compared to what we’ve seen to start the year. Maybe Jerry can bring 4Deep some luck while he is in attendance. 

We return to the normalcy of a one course tournament without the multi-course rotations and pro-am formats that we have seen the majority of the last month on tour. This is always an exciting tournament with a wild crowd. This is the best non-major field I have seen, and they priced the top end pretty tightly on DraftKings, so it is going to really come down to getting the value pieces correct.

Hello old friends, we are back for another exciting season of PGA. This is another rotational course pro-am with three rounds before the cut, much like two weeks ago at The Amex. Easier greens, slow rounds, with one tough course and two fairly easy ones. Not the best field, but we will hit our spots and roll with it.

Well, the fades were right today, Webb WD during the round and Huh shot over par. Munoz can take a hike, sorry Pensak, but Riley moved into a nice position to make a move this weekend. We have round 2 suspended for darkness, and Smotherman will dictate if -1 is the cut, or if he […]

Well, that John Huh round was unexpected, even if I wrote him up as the core piece for a stars and scrubs build. We saw a lot of low scores today, and should be the same tomorrow. Good weather, lots of birdies, and now we just find our way to the correct pieces to win […]
