The PGA Tour is back with its first full-field event of 2017, so get your lineup set with this week’s DraftKings fantasy golf picks.

The PGA Tour opened the Hawaii Swing of the 2017 schedule last week with a limited field event at Kapalua Plantation where Justin Thomas picked up his second win of the 2016-17 wrap-around season. This week’s tournament is the first full-field event of the New Year and the pros will move from Maui to Oahu as they tee it up for their annual stop at Waialae Country Club in Honolulu. Due to the time difference, lineups will lock at 5:00 AM Thursday, so check out our DraftKings fantasy golf picks for the week and get your lineup set in place before then.

Each week throughout the rest of the season, I’ll bring you my favorite options for your fantasy golf team. Since DraftKings is the one major DFS (daily fantasy sports) site that features the PGA on a regular basis, I’ll use the DraftKings scoring and pricing for all my picks. To help it not be a long, bulky post, I’ve separated my picks into different price brackets in the following slides. That should help you find my pick at the price point you are shopping at.

This is the first post I’ve done in 2017, but you should know what to expect if you’ve followed my picks over the last few years. To see who I’m playing in my personal DraftKings fantasy golf picks check out the final slide of the post.

Stay locked into our fantasy golf hub for all our upcoming coverage of the California Swing and the early part of the season leading up to the first Major of the year later this Spring at Augusta. To make sure you catch each week’s post,  you can also follow on Twitter @FansidedFantasy where the link goes out each week. I’ll also use that account to let you know how my picks are doing as the tournament plays out, and I’ll be happy to answer any questions you have.

Let’s start off the year with a quick tournament overview of this week’s 2017 version of The Sony Open before we get to my DraftKings fantasy golf picks for this week.
