DraftKings PGA – 2020 Genesis Invitational Values

6,800 Lanto Griffin

Lanto had a good thing going and then missed two straight cuts at the Waste Management and the Farmers. He was heavily owned at both of those events. He got back on the horse with a T5 at Pebble. He is a Cali guy, so I trust him to feel comfortable at this event. He bombs his driver (5th in the field in driving distance) and scrambles around the greens (29th in the field). That is the ideal skill set for a cut maker. He has never played this event.

7,500 Max Homa

Max homa is another Cali kid with a similar skill set to Lanto Griffin. Homa ranks 27th in the field in driving distance and is 18th in scrambling. Homa has had a solid start to the 2020 season. He has yet to miss a cut, and he had back-to-back top 10 finishes prior to finishing just outside the top-10 at Pebble Beach. Homa finished T37 at this event last year. His social media game is on point, so he may be popular this week.

6,800 Carlos Ortiz

Ortiz rates out extremely well for Riviera, being a big hitter whose tee-to-green game is superb. He also ranks top-40 in both Bogeys Avoided and Scrambling. Carlos Ortiz finished T9 at this event last year, and had a T26 and T20 in 2016 and 2015 respectively. My model loves Ortiz, which may mean that he will be a DFS community favorite come his tee time.
