Danny Willett Has Rediscovered Some Form
Danny Willett nearly fell off the face of the earth after winning the Masters in 2016. The victory moved him up to ninth in the world, but by the time the 2018 Masters had concluded, Willett had fallen all the way down to 371st in the world. He hit an all-time low of 442nd last […]

Tommy Fleetwood is still going to come in around 14 percent owned on DraftKings, but it feels like one of those weeks where the Englishman is going to go slightly under the radar. His statistics, form and course history are all respectable, but he isn't jumping off the page as much as he usually would. […]

We continue on to the Sunday games, which featured two of the favorites to win the title go down at home.

Week 4 shook up the standings in the AAF. The Orlando Apollos became the last undefeated team, the Birmingham Iron dropped their first game, and the Atlanta Legends and Memphis Express found the winner's circle for the first time.

Spencer Aguiar 6 years agoAdam Scott Has Dominated PGA National
Adam Scott has dominated the Honda Classic during his career. The 38-year-old won the event in 2016 and hasn't finished outside the top-15 since 2014. Scott's play at the tournament has been so impressive that he is the strokes gained total leader for the past five years, despite only appearing four times in that period. […]
Spencer Aguiar 6 years agoRussell Knox Plays Better At Difficult Courses
Russell Knox has historically played better at more difficult courses, and we think there are a few reasons for that being the case. For starters, Knox's lack of scoring and putting aren't as directly affected when the winning score is 10-under par or less. In a birdie shootout, those are two things that can quickly […]

Junior golf will always raise an eyebrow when it gets mentioned as being proof of a player having course history, but Emiliano Grillo has finished first in stroke play three times at PGA National as a junior. Grillo grew up playing during the 'Golden Age' of junior golf, facing the likes of Jordan Spieth, Justin […]

Billy Horschel, who attended the University of Florida, will compete in this week's Honda Classic. Aside from his withdrawal at the Dell Technologies Championship in September, Horschel has made 13 consecutive cuts, including a pair of top 25s in 2019 and four top-eight showings to end 2018. Horschel has never been shy when it comes […]
Spencer Aguiar 6 years agoLuke List Returns To Location Of His Best PGA Result
Luke List suffered a playoff loss last season to Justin Thomas at the Honda Classic. The American did just about everything right but was an unlucky loser after he was unable to eclipse Thomas in extra time. This season, List will head back to the scene of the crime in hopes that the result will […]
Spencer Aguiar 6 years agoJason Dufner Is A Dart Throw At The Honda Classic
Jason Dufner is a dart throw at the Honda Classic, but there are reasons to be optimistic that the American can randomly regain some form. It has been 17 tournaments since Dufner has posted a top-20 result, but when we look at courses that are difficult to score at and feature wind, the 163rd-ranked player […]
Spencer Aguiar 6 years agoDylan Frittelli Has Shown Course History In His Only Appearance
Dylan Frittelli posted an 11th place finish in his inaugural showing at PGA National last season. The result is promising for his chances this weekend, but it has also increased the South African's projected ownership. Frittelli is currently expected to be one of the more popular options under $7,500 on DraftKings. The 28-year-old does possess […]
Spencer Aguiar 6 years agoCameron Smith Is An Intriguing Pivot Option
Cameron Smith has been playing some of the best golf of his young career recently, making 18 consecutive worldwide cuts. Smith's victory at the Australian PGA Championship highlights his recent success, but it is far from the only notable result he has provided. If we exclude his win, the 24th-ranked player in the world has […]

Kyle Stanley arrives at the Honda Classic off of a share of 58th place during last week's WGC-Mexico Championship.

This week in Florida, the 40th-ranked player in the world will attempt to […]

Now that we are three weeks into the AAF season, some clear trends are starting to emerge. Orlando is the team to beat and clearly has the most fantasy assets on its roster. Atlanta is looking like an unmitigated disaster and Memphis isn't much better, although the QB change to Zach Mettenberger could do wonders. […]

I think we discovered a few new things during Week 3 of the AAF season, but many of the same elements that we have become accustomed to seeing held steady. Defensive lines continue to overpower the offensive lines, wide receivers are still dropping easy passes and most quarterbacks are struggling to find a rhythm. Only […]
Spencer Aguiar 6 years agoRory McIlroy Comes Up Just Short In Mexico
Since January of last year, Rory McIlroy has played his way into the last group of the final round eight times but has failed to emerge triumphant in any of those situations. On Sunday in Mexico, McIlroy continued that trend with a five-shot defeat to Dustin Johnson. The 29-year-old has been brilliant in his four […]

Dustin Johnson captured his 20th career PGA Tour victory at the WGC-Mexico Championship.

Welcome to the RotoBaller NBA Recap. In this feature, we highlight three fantasy basketball takeaways from last night's slate of NBA games.

Spencer Aguiar 6 years agoCan Bryson DeChambeau Solve for a Variable?
Golf's 'mad scientist' Bryson DeChambeau will try to "solve for E" this weekend in Mexico. "E" would stand for the 7,500 feet of elevation at Club de Golf Chapultepec. Balls will fly nearly nine percent further than they would at sea level, and DeChambeau's mind will be put to the test on trying to calculate […]
Spencer Aguiar 6 years agoJustin Thomas Is The Favorite At Chapultepec
Justin Thomas has usurped, at least for one week, Dustin Johnson at the top of DFS boards this week in Mexico. Thomas' 11,800 price tag on DraftKings gives him a $300 edge over Johnson, and he is $700 clear of the third highest priced player in Rory McIlroy. The American has been sensational lately, recording […]

After contending for the first few days at the Genesis Open, Jordan Spieth had a meltdown of epic proportions on Sunday. Spieth shot a 10-over 81, but the result could have been even worse.
