8,000-9,000

Aaron Wise ($8,800)
This might be a little bit of a flyer, but Wise has shown to play solid golf this season, most recently at the Wells Fargo where he finished tied for second. And while he’s missed three of his last 10 cuts, he has two other top 20 finishes over that run, making him a low-floor, high-ceiling type of player in this tournament.

Charles Howell ($8,700)
Even with a 74 in Round 3, Howell still managed to finish T17 at THE PLAYERS, giving him his fourth finish of T21 or better out of his last five tournaments. Having also only missed two cuts all season, it’s not hard to see why he’s a high-end mid-tier player in this field.

Rory Sabbatini ($8,600)
Sabbatini has been a relatively cheap player for quite some time in fantasy golf, but he really shouldn’t be and we see that here. He’s made his last 10 cuts and has finished T31 or better in seven of those tournaments. The South African is playing solid golf right now and would be a solid addition to your lineup.

Peter Uihlein ($8,500)
At this price, playing Uihlein on DraftKings is a bit risky and it all boils down to his inconsistency this season. He’s 10-of-17 in terms of making cuts and his finishes are all over the board. However, he does have four top-10 finishes this season, including a T5 at the Wells Fargo, the last time that he played.

Grayson Murray ($8,200)
Murray has been playing much better than you might expect as of late. He has made five of his last six cuts with four of those finishes coming inside the top 30 (including T30 at THE PLAYERS) and two inside the top 15. While this price might be a little rich, it makes sense given the overall weak field.
