PGA DFS: Round 3 Showdown Picks & Projections - THE PLAYERS Championship
PGA DFS Showdown Picks and Projections – Round 3
There was no shortage of carnage on Thursday and Friday. In a tradition unlike any other, my main slate lineups for THE PLAYERS Championship are already dead. Well, I didn’t get any 6/6 lineups in my five main tournament builds. We don’t have an official cut yet (Round 2 was suspended), but it looks like only 6-7% of lineups are going to have 6/6 golfers through the cut. Like many, I will be rushing to the showdown lobby for Round 3.
As mentioned last week, there’s typically a lot of movement on the leaderboard when we have strong fields and difficult golf courses. Add in water hazards on basically every hole and we should expect some shakeup on the leaderboard on Saturday. The top of the board tends to garner a lot of ownership, which makes those down the board more appealing for tournaments. We should have some 10-15 MPH gusts on Saturday, but it doesn’t look like there’s an edge for the early or late tee times.
