DraftKings PGA: 2019 Northern Trust Values

Patrick Reed 8,100

Reed is underpriced this week in DraftKings, as he has been for the past couple of months. His play has really picked up over the past few weeks, but the pricing stays soft. Reed has played rather well since his T32 at the US Open.

He has SIX straight top-30 finishes, gaining strokes in every aspect of his game. His approach game and off the tee game is rounding into form, and Reed is a good Bentgrass putter. Love the form and price for Patty.

Chez Reavie 7,600

Chez was on fire for a stretch and has had a winners hangover since the Travelers. He had a solid Wyndham, but lost more than 5 strokes around the greens and putting. Chez is historically a plus putter on Bentgrass, so his poor putting numbers will rebound this week.

Chez should set up okay for this course. It may be a tad long for Chez, but he rates out well in my model and his game has been really good. I cannot overlook the stats. Chez ranks 14th in my model, ranking in the top-10 in Par 4 scoring.

Joaquin Niemann 7,500

Niemann will be popular this week. He is playing extremely consistent golf. Since a top-5 at the Travelers, the young Chilean has 5 top-25 finishes and a missed cut at the British Open.

His ball-striking is immaculate, he bombs the ball off-the-tee, and Bentgrass is the only putting surface he doesn’t lose strokes on. This is the perfect course for Niemann, and the price is too enticing to pass on. He may be super chalk this week, but I cannot fade him.
