The best DraftKings fantasy golf picks for the 2017 Travelers Championship as the PGA Tour heads to TPC River Highlands on June 22.

One week removed from the 2017 U.S. Open and the PGA Tour season carries on. The 2017 Travelers Championship from TPC River Highlands is on deck next. Though the second major champion of the year, Brooks Koepka, won’t be playing, there are still plenty of big names ready to tee off. As such, there’s a nice field to make your DraftKings fantasy golf picks for the weeks from.

What’s stands out when looking at the DraftKings fantasy golf picks for the Travelers Championship and the options at hand is how the top-tier and high-priced players are risky. That speaks largely to how inconsistent some of the best players in the world have been this season. To find consistency as we head into the TPC River Highlands, a course that rewards smart, steady play, looking below that tier might be the better play for DFS golf players.

As always, though, our DraftKings golf picks are centered around a number of things. There’s tournament and course history that has to be factored in, surely. More than that, though, you’re looking for hot streaks, players who have been consistent in terms of making cuts and finishing this season, and so on.
