Scoring Notes: Ties for a finishing position will not reduce or average down points. For example, if 2 golfers tie for 3rd place, each will receive the 18 fantasy points for the 3rd place finish result. Playoff Holes will not count towards final scoring, with the exception of the "finishing position" scoring. For example, the golfer who wins the tournament will receive the sole award of 1st place points, but will not accrue points for their scoring result in the individual playoff holes.

Player Lock Notes: All golfers lock at the time the first golfer tees off on day 1 of an event.

Contest start times are subject to change. Please check back for exact times within 24 hours of the event.

My first line up. It doesn't appear to many golf fans here.

Going to be some good overlay here in a few hours

How is the action for golf? Any dead money donks or pretty reg infested.

20min left nice overlay in the 15k = )

I play PGA on DK regularly. I've got a few lineups in, but my favorite is:

DeLaet
Finau
Hadwin
Leishman
Piercy
Walker

So out of 8625 possible entries only were able to fill 5800 something. Ill take that!

I threw 20 different line ups at it, lets see if something sticks

Got V.S in there a lot, he seems to do well on this course.

Just an FYI, this is a new course this year so no course history.

Still learning this golf stuff = ) Just thought it needed a thread, also ad Patrick reed in 20% of my line ups = )

With all the shot link data available you can probably make a decent prediction algorithm if you were willing to put in the time.

After reading about big overlay on RG last night I decided to give this a shot knowing nothing just looking for value based on Vegas. Then I got to thinking that I'm probably totally dead money vs the sophisticated golf crowd, I mean not many beer swilling dullards in DFS golf, right? Then I see Pat Reed at 12.2% owned in the $2 GPP, yep, the same Pat Reed whos withdrawl from the event was announced on Rotoworld on Oct 6th.


OP- You need to start a new thread or ask nutshot to change the title 2014-2015 PGA DFS Thread would be much better....

Reed 8.9% owned in the $12 GPP as well.

Good idea, I'll ask them to do that

thread title changed

in to win some money

my best line up so far
G Derek Fathauer
G Matt Kuchar
G Martin Laird
G Marc Leishman
G Carl Pettersson
G Brendan Steele

141 points so far, I like how it goes for four days = )

I think PGA is the most fun dfs going. Didn't really follow golf outside the majors, but I find myself making teams and following every week now. Was all over Hearn Chappell Koepka and Ishikawa this week.

Can't wait for the Majors!!

Also wish Fanduel would add golf.

How big are the GPP's for these? Pretty impressed with them for this weeks little event.

So far I am riding:

Chappell
Finau
Koepka
Sneds
Sterne
Thomas

Tony Finau is my new favorite player, what a stud.

200 300k usually, 27$ 100k and even bigger fields below that
Wouldn't doubt if they are bigger this year

This year we ran $200 buy-in $300k guarantees with $100k to 1st and $20 buy-in $100k guarantees.

For 2015 I'd expect these will be more like $1mm/$250k guarantees.

Fanduel was advised by their lawyers not to.

Nice, baseball sats to the $1mm please. Hell baseball sats to all the majors

Sitting at 268 points with all my players still in. There are a ton of guys in front me with one or two players with a missed cut, a top 10 finish is possible = ) I think 301 points is first right now. total of 5800 people got in.

Nice. Only had 1 of 4 line ups all make the cut.

Kuchar
Koepka
Overton
Howell III
Kisner
Knox

Could have done without Harris English missing cut by 1

Does anyone know of a way to get the fantasy points for all the players from DraftKing for the week?
