- Spencer Aguiar: Par-Five Bob% + Prox 200+, Ball-Striking
- Josh Bennett: overall Ball-Striking
- Tommy Bell: Proximity 150-175 and 175-200, Par 5 Scoring, SG: Approach

- Spencer Aguiar: Matthew NeSmith ($6,200)
- Josh Bennett: Matthias Schwab - 6,400
- Tommy Bell: Chez Reavie - $6,700
What is your favorite bet of the week? (Any type)
- Joe Nicely: Outrights - Daniel Berger (40/1), Joaquin Niemann (55/1), Kevin Streelman (80/1) Top 20 Finish - Sepp Straka (+$500)
- Spencer Aguiar: Sergio Garcia T20 (3/1)
- Josh Bennett: Brendan Steele top 20 (+650)
- Tommy Bell: Daniel Berger outright (32/1)
Make a “bold prediction” for this week:
- Joe Nicely: Collin Morikawa wins back-to-back tournament at Muirfield Village
- Spencer Aguiar: Jason Day doesn’t win the tournament, nobody in the $8,000 range cracks the top-10 and Brooks Koepka misses the cut.
- Josh Bennett: Brooks and Bryson brawl on the putting green before rd 2 when they're both 4 shots outside the cut line
- Tommy Bell: Benny An is our First Round Leader… Then he barely makes the cut on the number and finishes Solo 70th. Meanwhile, Rory wins the tourney by 3 strokes.
Who is your favorite overall DFS golfer and why?
- Joe Nicely: Patrick Cantlay ($9.8k) - Love his game, love his fit on this course, and love that he knocked the rust off last week.
- Spencer Aguiar: Xander Schauffele ($9,200) - Patrick Cantlay is probably your safest play on the board, but I will deviate onto Schauffele because of ownership. Upside and consistency are both in play for the American, and we get a discounted price compared to his counterparts in this range.
- Josh Bennett: Tiger. 9k. That's all.
- Tommy Bell: Daniel Berger ($8,200) - Absolutely unbelievable form with a flawless SG game in all categories right now. Only thing against him is lack of course history, but I have a feeling he’ll change that this week.
What is your optimal DFS lineup building strategy?
- Joe Nicely: Balanced
- Spencer Aguiar: An extremely strong $9,000 range leads me to say balanced.
- Josh Bennett: Balanced
- Tommy Bell: Balanced build for 10 lineups (Tiger/Berger/Cantlay as “Stud”). Then Stars and Scrubs with Rory + Tiger/Berger/Cantlay for the other 10 (20 entry max GPPs)
Who is your pick to win the tournament?
- Joe Nicely: Jason Day...again. Ok, the Jason Day “joke” pick from last week came surprisingly close to being right, so I had to run it back! However, I’m really going with Patrick Cantlay to win and Collin Morikawa being right in the mix again.
- Spencer Aguiar: Hideki Matsuyama
- Josh Bennett: Rory Mcilroy
- Tommy Bell: Rory McIlroy
