Under 7,000

Cody Gribble (6,800): Gribble won the Sanderson Farms Championship last fall and is off to a hot start to his rookie season. He did miss the cut at the RSM Classic but finished t14 last week at Kapalua. He has four top-15 finishes in his six events which is good enough for seventh in the extremely early FedEx Cup race.

Cameron Smith (6,800): Smith had a pair of top-12 finishes this fall while making the cut in all four events he played. He is coming off a t15 at the Australian PGA Championship and a runner-up finish in the Emirates Australian Open, so he has good international momentum coming into his second start at The Sony Open in a row after picking up an MDF last year.

Cheng-Tsung Pan (6,600): Pan should be comfortable in the Pacific as a native of Taiwan The 24-year old is in his first year as a pro after a great collegiate career at Washington. He finished t6y at the RSM and is a good sleeper to watch as we start 2017.

Kyle Reifers (6,400): In his season-opener last week, Reifers finished with a strong 66 to get to a t35. He was great tee-to-green but struggled a little bit with the flat stick. He is a solid overall player and a good cheap pick. He finished t43 at this event last year highlighted by a second-round 66 which he couldn’t build on over the weekend. He’s the cheapest play that I’m going with in my lineups although Chez Reavie and Derek Fathauer are also ultra-cheap options to consider.
