Corey Conners Wins Valero Texas Open
Corey Conners became just the fifth player in PGA Tour history to qualify for an event on Monday and capture the title that same weekend. The Canadian provided one of the craziest six-under par rounds you will ever see, making birdie on four of his first five holes of the day before producing bogeys on... Read More
Haotong Li To Make Second Masters Start
Last season, Haotong Li captured the title at the Dubai Desert Classic, which had been a past indicator for success at the Masters. Danny Willett won both tournaments in 2016, and Sergio Garcia accomplished the feat in 2017. Unfortunately, Li wasn't able to keep the trend going in 2018, finishing in 32nd place, but it...

Bryson DeChambeau Looks To Rebound
It might be more likely that Bryson DeChambeau will win the Masters in a season or two, but it has become difficult to neglect golf's mad scientist at odds of 35/1. The sixth-ranked player in the world has sputtered over his past four events, failing to post a top-15 finish, but the 25-year-old has entered... Read More
Justin Thomas Quietly Enters Augusta
Justin Thomas' record at Augusta might be a reason that some DFS players leave the American off of their cards this weekend, but don't overlook the 25-year-old because of a perceived flawed course record. Thomas has bettered his finishing position from 39 to 22 to 17 in his first three attempts, and competing at the... Read More
Dustin Johnson Eyes First Masters Title
Everyone knows of Dustin Johnson's long list of misfortune's in major championship events, but the big-hitting American is being somewhat overlooked entering Augusta. During his last four stroke-play events, Johnson has contributed three top-10 finishes, which includes a victory at the WGC-Mexico Championship. Of all the travails that the second-ranked player in the world has... Read More

Haotong Looks To Build From WGC-Match Play Success
Haotong Li escaped his pod during last week's WGC-Match Play, defeating Brooks Koepka and Alex Noren before eventually falling to Kevin Kisner in the final 16. Many forget that Li is still just 23 years old and victories over Koepka and Noren will only help to increase his confidence level going forward. His win at... Read More
Abraham Ancer Will Attempt To Capture First Title On Tour
It is fair to say that a lot of DFS ownership in this range is going to trickle to Byeong Hun An, who is priced at $9,200 on DraftKings this weekend, although Abraham Ancer will still see his fair share of usage with his moderate $8,900 price tag. The 58th-ranked player in the world plays... Read More
Luke List Will Be A Popular Selection In Texas
Luke List is expected to be one of the more popular options on DFS sites this weekend, but his big-hitting style is ideal for taking a flier on in GPP events. TPC San Antonio is known for being long and windy, and List has shown the ability to excel in blustery conditions. In his past... Read More
Billy Horschel Has Been All-Or-Nothing At The Valero
Billy Horschel's past five trips to TPC San Antonio can be summed up as volatile. The 32-year-old missed the cut in 2014 and 2017 but posted top-11 results in 2015,2016 and 2018, highlighted by a third-place finish during the 2015 event. The 41st-ranked player in the world enters the week having made his previous 17... Read More
Jordan Spieth Has One More Chance To Get On Track
It has been a long two years for Jordan Spieth, who has failed to capture a title on the PGA Tour since the Open Championship in July of 2017. Unfortunately, winning hasn't been the only issue, and the American has failed to post a top-30 result in his previous nine events. It is difficult to... Read More
PGA DFS: Vegas Report - Valero Texas Open
Welcome back to the PGA DFS: Vegas Report. Kevin Kisner exceeded his runner-up finish during last year's Dell Technologies Match Play with a victory in 2019. After losing his opening match in the group stage portion to Ian Poulter, the American outlasted Tony Finau and Keith Mitchell to force a sudden-death playoff with Poulter on... Read More
RotoBaller NBA Recap: Devin Booker Just Misses Third-Straight 50-Point Game
Welcome to the RotoBaller NBA Recap. In this feature, we highlight three fantasy basketball takeaways from last night's slate of NBA games.

Haotong Li Draws Winnable Group
If you are looking for a long shot that could make a deep run, look no further than Haotong Li. Li's pairing of Brooks Koepka, Alex Noren and Tom Lewis have formed one of the weakest groups, and there is a massive opening for someone other than Koepka to surface. Koepka has been sputtering in... Read More
Thorbjorn Olesen Is A Sleeper This Weekend
Thorbjorn Olesen drew Francesco Molinari, Webb Simpson and Satoshi Kodaira at the WGC-Dell Match Play. The group is statistically more vulnerable than most foursomes this weekend, and Kodaira is one of the weakest players in the field. Olesen features a propensity for high volatility, which can be considered a perk in a contest like this.... Read More
Emiliano Grillo Lands In Difficult Quadrant
Emiliano Grillo's pairing of Justin Rose, Gary Woodland and Eddie Pepperell wasn't an ideal draw for the Argentinian, but he isn't drawing dead to get out of Group 2. Grillo's $6,900 price tag on DraftKings and 5.5 percent projected ownership makes him a reasonable contrarian option, and he is plus-550 to advance into the last... Read More
Luke List Shouldn't Be Ignored In Group 4
Luke List comes into the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play as the last-ranked player in the field, but despite the difficult task of drawing Rory McIlroy, the 69th-ranked player in the world shouldn't be discounted. List is plus-425 to win the group and plays McIlroy in the opening match on Wednesday. The big-hitting American will have... Read More
Rory McIlroy Is The Biggest Favorite To Advance To Saturday
Rory McIlroy's minus-140 price to escape Group 4 is the largest number on the board this weekend. A lot of it has to do with his current form, but the 29-year-old did draw a favorable section. Matthew Fitzpatrick and Justin Harding were two of the weaker players from their respective segments, but we wouldn't mark... Read More
Justin Thomas Leads Group 5
Justin Thomas is the second biggest favorite to win his group this weekend at odds of negative-125, trailing only Rory McIlroy at minus-140. On paper, Thomas does appear to have drawn a favorable assortment with Keegan Bradley, Matt Wallace and Lucas Bjerregaard rounding out the foursome. Bradley is (1-7-2) lifetime at the event, and Wallace... Read More
Si Woo Kim Is A Trendy Upset Selection In Group 8
Si Woo Kim has drawn Group 8 this weekend at the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play, which is not only an extremely difficult quadrant but also the perceived wrong side of the draw. If Kim had to face the highest seed possible in every round, not only would he have to get past Jon Rahm, Matt... Read More
J.B. Holmes Faces Difficult Task
J.B. Holmes wasn't done any favors by being selected into Group 8, which features Jon Rahm, Matt Kuchar and Si Woo Kim. Despite being the perceived third best player in the group based on his ranking, he comes into the week as the biggest longshot to emerge from the quadrant. Holmes' plus-550 price to win... Read More
Andrew Putnam Draws Wide-Open Region
Andrew Putnam will be making his WGC-Match Play debut this weekend in Texas. The American has cooled off lately, missing three of his last four cuts, but he should be able to go into the contest with a nothing-to-lose attitude. Putnam will be paired with Patrick Reed, Sergio Garcia and Shane Lowry, but there is... Read More
Chez Reavie Faces Uphill Battle In Texas
Chez Reavie drew one of the most challenging draws of any player ranked 49-64. Reavie was placed into Group 1, which features Dustin Johnson, Hideki Matsuyama and Branden Grace. Reavie's plus-750 price to advance into the Sweet 16 tells you the uphill battle that he is facing, and the 37-year-old will be an underdog in... Read More
Dustin Johnson Leads Group 1 Into Match Play
Dustin Johnson has drawn Hideki Matsuyama, Branden Grace and Chez Reavie at this year's WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play. Johnson is the plus-100 favorite to win the quadrant, and he is projected to be the second highest owned player at 21 percent on DraftKings. While Group 1 is the American's to lose, Matsuyama should give him... Read More

Welcome back to the PGA DFS: Vegas Report. Paul Casey captured his second straight win at the Valspar Championship, outlasting second-place finishers Louis Oosthuizen and Jason Kokrak by one stroke.
