Hero World Challenge

TIGER is back! I know that the hype is a bit overplayed for an exhibition tournament that only features 18 golfers, but I don’t care. He’s back and I’ll shout my joy to the entire world. While I can’t wait for the event to start, this isn’t like the majors where we can play more volume than normal. With 18 golfers and with no cut, we should scale back our play this week. The second piece of advice is to leave salary on the table. Every golfer in the field will likely have at least 15% ownership, so the best way to diversify is to leave money on the table. The pricing is soft enough that it’s easy to create a solid team while still leaving $1,000+ on the table. The final note is that the course features five par fives, so make sure to target golfers that can score on those holes. Now, let’s get into the picks.
