9,000-8,000

Jason Day ($9,000) Day will need his short game to bounce back at Bethpage Black, but there’s always reason to believe in the Aussie, especially with his ability off the tee. At this course for the PGA Championship, he could be a great add to your lineup at a solid price point for DraftKings.

Bryson DeChambeau ($8,900) DeChambeau’s recent form has been suspect, most recently missing the cut at the RBC Heritage, and his putting is largely to blame. On a new grass at Bethpage Black, though, maybe this ultra-talented player can right the ship and be worth this price.

Tony Finau ($8,800) This has been an up and down Finau year thus far, but he did step up at The Masters with a T5 finish. Now that you have his big-hitting prowess on the course in New York for this second major of the year, the big man could be in the mix at the top of the leaderboard again.

Matt Kuchar ($8,700) Two wins, 12 made cuts in 12 tries, a T7, T2, second place run coming into this week and consistency to boot, it’s hard not to be enticed by what Kuchar is bringing to the table here. He might not be a major winner, but he continues to reel off solid value in daily fantasy golf.

Patrick Reed ($8,400) Nothing about Reed’s performance this season suggests that he should be touched in DraftKings this week. Having said that, he won the 2016 Barclays at Bethpage Black, so if you want to bet on his potential and history, he’s not bad value if it pays off.

Paul Casey ($8,300) Casey has been all over the map in terms of his finishes this season, but when he’s on, he’s been finishing in the top 25 and top 10 consistently. It’s a risky proposition to play him, but one that could pay off if he delivers.

Patrick Cantlay ($8,200) Cantlay has been quietly hot this season, notching seven top-10 finishes in his 11 tournaments played this season, including T9 at The Masters and T3 at the RBC Heritage. He could make some serious noise if he’s in his element at Bethpage Black for the PGA Championship.

Adam Scott ($8,100) Scott hasn’t played a whole lot of tournaments this season, but has been good of late, aside from a missed cut at The Honda Classic, notching three top-20s in his other three of his last four outings. If his putting can get right, he can be in the mix this week.
