Over 10,000

Tiger Woods ($11,300) Off of his Masters win and then getting to Bethpage Black early for the PGA Championship, Tiger Woods is the story for this tournament in DraftKings, regular picks and every other instance. Moreover, he won the 2002 U.S. Open at this course, only furthering the aura around him. He’s circled as a favorite and rightfully so, even if the price is incredibly steep to have him in your lineup.

Dustin Johnson ($11,100) A T28 in at the RBC Heritage in a Masters hangover performance — specifically in the final round on Sunday — from Johnson broke a streak of five-straight top-10 finishes for him. He’s one of the best in the world and continually shows that when he’s out on the course and, despite a steep price to play him, he could well deliver with what he’s done as of late.

Rory McIlroy ($10,900) Bethpage Black seems like a pace McIlroy could potentially thrive with his ability to murder golf balls off the tee and, when he’s on, capitalize with iron play. On top of that, the Northern Irishman has been in great form this season and could very well make some real noise in this major championship.

Brooks Koepka ($10,400) It seems that all Koepka does at this point is put himself in contention in major championships. He’s the defending champion at the PGA and is coming off a T2 at The Masters and the a fourth-place finish at the Byron Nelson last week. It’s all working for him in recent form and, with his prowess in the spotlight, he’s worth the price here.

Justin Thomas ($10,100) – OUT – This is certainly disappointing for Thomas coming into the PGA Championship. Not only is he having a solid year and could be a real threat at Bethpage Black, but he’s just a fun guy to have on the course. However, he’s out after withdrawing due to a wrist injury. So, you know, you probably shouldn’t have him in any DraftKings lineup.
