DraftKings PGA: The American Express Values

7,500 Brendan Steele

Steele should have won the golf tournament last week. I do not know where he will be mentally after that debacle, but I like to leverage that. He crushes this course, so I love the combination of form and course fit. In his last 5 appearances at this tournament, Steele has an incredible 2 top 6 finishes and 5 made cuts. At this price tag, it is extremely easy to throw him in multiple lineups.

7,500 Aaron Wise

What the heck is going on with this pricing? Wise is a bomber that has won on the PGA Tour at a course similar to this tract. Well lets take advantage of that! Wise has T34 and T17 finishes at this event with a missed cut last year. Wise is T19 in the field in SG:Approach, and we know what he can do with the driver. I love how he sets up for this event, and he shook the rust off at the Sony last week.

7,000 Nick Taylor

Canadians play well in the Desert. Plus, Taylor was on last week at the Sony Open. He gained 5.1 strokes on approach versus the field. He has 3 straight made cuts at this event. Taylor ranks 17th in my model. At this price, and the way he was stroking the golf ball at the Sony Open, he deserves to make a few lineups.
