We can now use our PGA DFS projections to simulate the outcome of PGA DFS events. Below, you will find a tool that estimates how often a player might appear in the winning lineup. Side by side, you can find an early estimate of DFS ownership% for comparison purposes. The goal is to provide a simple metric to aid in your DFS decision-making.

Note: You can always find the most up-to-date PGA DFS projections in LineupHQ.

PGA DFS Opto% Tool – How It Works

We use the hole-level probability set in our PGA DFS simulator to run trials of a simulated “slate,” selecting the winner and all finishing positions of each event based on our projections’ modeling.

From there, each player receives a range of outcomes based on their result. We set realistic results for each trial and repeat as necessary to form a data set from which to perform evaluations. That data gets sent to the optimizer, and we calculate the optimal roster percentage. Below, you’ll find the results for this week’s action.
