8,000-9,000
Tiger Woods ($8,900)
While he’s not bee THE Tiger Woods we were once accustomed to, his return has truly been impressive with how he’s played throughout the year. Yes, he’d like to forget about the U.S. Open, but he could potentially make a little run at Carnoustie and DraftKings players should be ready.
Paul Casey ($8,700)
Eight finishes inside the top 20 out of the last 10 tournaments played is impressive, and that’s exactly what Casey has done. He’s been a solid-as-ever player this season and has the game to really make a run up the leaderboard for the British Open this week.
Francesco Molinari ($8,600)
If you love recent track record, you’ll be hard-pressed to find a more impressive recent run than the one Molinari is on. He’s finished second or better in four of his last five tournaments (two wins). The one he didn’t: a T25 at the U.S. Open. He seems to be breaking through finally and could make real noise this week.
Patrick Reed ($8,400)
It’s pretty clear that Reed’s win at Augusta allowed him to turn a corner, but his price doesn’t reflect that. This value is phenomenal for the Masters champ and you should almost surely jump at the chance to grab him.
Alex Noren ($8,300)
Noren loves links courses and Carnoustie is certainly that. What’s more, he’s played pretty well as of late with five-straight top-25 finishes and a win his last time out at the French Open. Should he keep it up, he offers strong value.
Henrik Stenson ($8,200)
Since getting cut at the Valspar in March, Stenson has been on a bit of a roll. He’s registered four finishes of T6 or better since then, including at both The Masters and the U.S. Open. What’s more, he’s not missed a cut and hasn’t finished lower than T26. That’s as easy of money as you’re going to see.
Marc Leishman ($8,000)
Leishman has shown strongly at the British Open in recent years and has established himself as a premier player in the world throughout this season, coming in with seven top-10s to his credit. I think his game fits well and will allow him to have a nice weekend at Carnoustie.
