The best DraftKings fantasy golf picks for The Masters 2017, which tees off on Thursday, April 6

The Masters is ready to get underway on Thursday, April 6 as the first round of the first major in 2017 will tee off. For many people, this is the unofficial first tournament of the year. Frankly, many casual fans aren’t watching until the first major championship of the year. Even if that’s not what an avid golf fan would condone, it’s the simple reality. As such, many fans may be looking at The Masters and wondering what they need to do with their DraftKings fantasy golf picks.

For the most part, making DraftKings fantasy golf picks is unlike any other effort in daily fantasy sports. DFS fans are used to looking at one day or one matchup and trying to play results on that day. Because it’s golf, you’re looking at four rounds and four days that could all bring different conditions. What’s more, you still have to look at “matchups” in terms of the course and how certain golfers have played it or will play it.

Thus, there’s definitely a plethora of things that you have to run down when making your DraftKings daily fantasy golf picks. After all, Augusta National and The Masters are as vaunted as they are for good reason. It’s not an easy course, but certain golfers seem to have the edge—most of the time coming down to putting. And with no Tiger Woods in the field, the eyes of everyone are looking for the stars.

With plenty to consider, we’ll look at the best options for The Masters 2017 on DraftKings going by tiers based on salary. From the most expensive players down to the value and sleeper play at the bottom. Then, we’ll look at a variety of lineups before I give my ideal lineup.
