There was some movement in the top five of the Tournament Player of the Year race this week but awesemo continues to hold onto the top spot although his lead is slim with four players within 6,300 points of him. ChipotleAddict, as noted in our most recent DFS Report, had several GPP wins and moved up two spots to #2. His brother, papagates, subsequently fell two spots to #5 while youdacao dropped one to #3 and scout326 (who had a big GPP win of his own) moved up one spot to #4.

Former TPOY ehafner was the big mover of the week as he jumped four spots all the way up to #13, and affihq climbed three spots to #22. No one else in the top 25 shifted more than one spot.


There was absolutely no movement in the Superheavyweight Leaderboard. Saahilsud continues to hold the top spot with youdacao, ChipotleAddict, papagates, and scout326 rounding out the top five.
