The best DraftKings picks for the U.S. Open 2018 complete with advice, strategy, lineups and much more for daily fantasy golf players.

It’s finally time for the second major championship of the PGA Tour season as the 2018 U.S. Open from Shinnecock Hills has arrived. The USGA run tournament will tee off on Thursday, June 14 with an early start time of 6:45 a.m. ET and there will be over 150 golfers in the field trying to reach immortality. That means a lot of players to choose from when making DraftKings picks for fantasy golf.

If there’s a big name that you can think about putting in your DraftKings lineup, rest assured that they are playing this week at the 2018 U.S. Open. The field is absolutely loaded from top-to-bottom, which means a number of things. First, it means there is really great value at the bottom. Second, it means that playing the top-tier players is a risky gamble still, but perhaps less so. And third, it means that some top-tier players aren’t necessarily priced as highly as they should be.

As a result of those things that means making your DraftKings picks can be all the more precision-based as there’s going to be value all over the place that DFS players are looking for. So we’ll do as we always do, going through all of the pricing tiers and looking at the best options throughout that tier. Then, we’ll look at some lineups, including my ideal lineup for the week.

Now that we’re ready for this, let’s get started with the top-tier players for your 2018 U.S. Open DraftKings picks for fantasy golf.
