The PGA is slowly inching back East with each Tournament welcome back to Bray Birds DFS one of the best places for PGA NFL MLB and NBA news and of course DFS if you don’t know by now I’m Walt if you haven’t already please like And subscribe to my Channel all right so let’s jump into my overview of the
American Express tournament we’re out of Hawaii now we’re in California and I know a lot of you all have noticed that I haven’t released any Showdown videos yet this season I’m making some tweaks to my Showdown process and I had to kind of get the slides and everything
Together so if I don’t get a chance to have some Showdown content this week it will probably be next week but once I get started with my Showdown content I’ll have these course overviews usually on a Monday or Tuesday and then after that I’ll have Showdown content for
Round three and round four but once again A lot has changed I started my channel during PGA season I think around May and so I’ve just learned so much since then and I want to kind of melt it down into some better content and so
Until I get to that point I’m only going to do uh these videos all right so if this is your first time looking at my video what I’m first going to do and I can pull up this screen is I’m going to look at the things to consider so this
Is a very interesting tournament because we have a cut after 3 days uh normally in most PGA events there’s a cut after day two I.E on Friday but what they do this is very interesting this is a three course rotation so they give all of the players one time through each of the
Courses the stadium course which is the main course the Nicholas course and the linta country club so once they all go through those it takes three days then they do a cut so at the 54th hole so there’s no shot track data on the non Stadium courses which just makes
Analysis just so fun and very interesting is long shots can win this tournament so we can look at the next slide and see the last five winners that are playing in the field SE will Kim Won in 2021 he had a score of 23 under par
And his salary this year is 8,600 but you know connecting to those long shots you can see the other people in the last five winners you have Andrew andry who had a 26 under par in 2020 and his current salary is the stone C minimum of
6,000 you have Adam long who won with a score of 2600 par in 2019 and his salary is 6600 you have Jason duffner who won with a score of 25 underpar and in 2016 in his salary is the stone cold minimum of 6,000 and you have Bill hos who won
With a score of 22 under par in 2016 and and had a has a salary of 6,100 so definitely long shots can win this tournament which makes sense uh the more difficult the tournament the more people get kind of you know kicked out of the opportunity to win but at a course
That’s really easy the difference between the best players and the Not So best players is much smaller all right so PGA West all three of the courses are under 7200 yards all of the courses are a par 72 all have four par 3s 10 par fours and four par fivs and remember
This is a 3-day 54 hole cut line of nine underpar but as you can guess if you don’t already know this is a birdie Fest all right so some of the key figures we like to look at when making your analysis for your lineups you want to
Look at Strokes gain approach you want to look at Strokes gain total you want to look at par five scoring and Par R three scoring because if you’re not getting birdies on this in this tournament I mean you might have you might think you’re doing well well like
Yeah I’m seven under par my you know my player seven under par no if you’re seven under par you’re actually behind so it’s really important to keep up so here are my players to Target and then in this after this I’ll look at Players by salary range but player players to
Target JT Poston uh because of his putting you have Tom Kim for birdies are better because you have some players who do very well but they just don’t get a lot of birdies so yeah Tom Kim is someone that might get bogeys but because of the way that draftking scores
If he has birdies you can easily make up for the Bogies and then I have Aaron R because of his Strokes gain approach and we have Eric Cole because of his par three scoring if you can manage to squeeze out some birdies on par 3s that’s really going to make you make you
A Difference Maker and then we have have Grayson save for his just overall fit all right so now what we’re going to do I’m going to look at players in each tier and tell you who I’d like from each tier so I’m going to have the players
Over 10,000 I’m going to have the players 9,000 to 10,000 I’m going to have the players in the 8,000 the players in the 7,000 and the players under 7,000 and normally normally I really don’t like dipping my Ladle below 7,000 but with all of the long shot possibilities this is one of those
Tournaments where I’m okay playing a player or two it can happen under 7,000 so my player over 10,000 that I really like is Xander chafl and I really like it just because of his salary well he’s a great player but a little bit of
Game theory in there so I think a lot of people considering he’s only considering he’s only he’s 100 more than Klay I feel like a lot of people are going to use use that those savings and just pick Klay so I feel like Xander chaet should
Have um lower ownership than Klay and I think people are going to use that extra $100 to get a player further down that they believe can round out their lineup um so that’s why I like a shl beyond the fact that he’s a really good golfer all
Right so in the 900s um sorry in the in the 900s we have JT poon and we can see he started out the PGA year he was he finished six at the Sony Open fifth at the century uh he finished third last year at the Shriner and he finished 44th
At the RSM so I mean his recent form is real good this course is a good fit form we already talked about his putting skills so in the 9000s I really like JT Poston all right moving to the 8000s you know I click the wrong button I like
Eric Cole I mean look at his game logs since the Shriners third at the Shriners second at the Zozo Championship third at the RSM classic 14th at the century and last week 13th at the Hawaiian open he hasn’t finished below 15th Place in months that alone makes him a still of a
Deal in the 8000s we move to the 7000s and I’m going with Aaron Ry we talked about his strok gain approach uh we can see last week he was 57 at the Sony uh we can look last year he had a good end to his year in the swing series and some
Of his uh DP World Tour tournaments the 10th at Ned Bank Ninth at Commercial Bank 21st at Zozo out in Japan and 28th at the Shriners and if you go below 7,000 I like previous Champion Adam long he’s won here before I mean his game logs don’t look impressive but that is
Why he is in the 6000s but I think any of those players that have won at this tournament before are people that you might want to consider in the 6000s so let me know your thoughts let me know your comments if you have any questions just leave them in the comments and
Otherwise go out there and win that guap I hope this video helps you with your lineups if you haven’t already please like And subscribe and hit that notification Bell and I’ll talk to you next time
