PGA Cash Game Breakdown: WGC-HSBC Champions

Top-ranked grinder, Notorious, will break down his top cash game golf plays for the coming week’s tournament. Notorious has been nominated for the FSWA Golf Writer of the Year award and has quickly established himself as one of the brightest PGA DFS minds out there.

We have another no-cut event this week, which places an emphasis on birdie makers and on finishing position. From a lineup construction standpoint, it really differs by site. If you want to play Dustin Johnson or Hideki Matsuyama on DraftKings, you will be forced to roster quite a few golfers in the $7k range. This isn’t optimal, as most of the best plays are in the $8k range. On FanDuel, it’s a little easier to start with one of the two studs at the top. On FantasyDraft, a more balanced approach is preferred. Now, let’s dive into the picks.
