DraftKings British Open PGA DFS picks: Best fantasy golf lineup for The Open

Best DraftKings British Open PGA DFS lineups

Rather than just offering up one line and leaving you with that, we’re going to go through three DraftKings PGA DFS lineups that I would feel comfortable playing

Stars and Scrubs

• Jon Rahm ($11,300)
• Jordan Spieth ($9,700)
• Louis Oosthuizen ($9,300)
• Ryan Palmer ($6,900)
• Chris Kirk ($6,400)
• Sam Burns ($6,300)

This lineup has all the upside in the world. Rahm, Spieth and Oosthuizen is a conceivable 1-2-3 finishing group while Palmer, Kirk and Burns all have top-20 upside. There is inherent risk with the lower-priced players but the British Open indeed offers the opportunity for a strong stars and scrubs approach.

Mid-Tier Load-Up

• Patrick Cantlay ($8,900)
• Patrick Reed ($8,800)
• Paul Casey ($8,600)
• Scottie Scheffler ($8,200)
• Cameron Smith ($7,800)
• Sergio Garcia ($7,600)

Avoiding the $10,000 and $9,000 ranges isn’t something I’d recommend for a tournament play but in cash games this lineup should be awesome. There is upside with some win equity involved but, more importantly, every player here feels like a safe bet for a top-30 finish.

My Ideal Lineup

• Jon Rahm ($11,300)
• Viktor Hovland ($9,100)
• Paul Casey ($8,600)
• Harris English ($7,300)
• Ryan Palmer ($6,900)
• Lucas Herbert ($6,800)

Admittedly, this isn’t far off from the stars and scrubs approach but being able to reach into the $7,000 range and get English is big for my confidence in what this lineup can do. There are three legitimate winner picks here in addition to a bonafide sleeper in English. This is a strong, strong lineup you can build on DraftKings.
