While it wasn’t my best week of DFS, it sure felt nice to be sitting on a Will Zalatoris outright ticket. This was a bet that the whole community seemed to be on, so it was even better when he finally picked up the win after three playoff holes. Speaking of, that was one of the craziest playoffs I have ever seen. The second playoff hole featured a drive that nearly went out of bound, the removal of shoes to potentially stand in the water, great recovery shots, and clutch putts. On the third playoff hole, both golfers pushed their approach shots far too right on the island green. Zalatoris had his ball stay up (but was essentially dead), while Sepp Straka’s took a similar bounce but found the water. Ultimately, Zalatoris hit the better shot from the drop zone and sank the putt to pick up his first win. It was a wild ride and a day that I won’t forget for a very long time.
We now turn our attention to the second leg of the FedExCup playoffs. There are only 70 golfers eligible to tee it up this week and two of them have withdrawn from the event (Cam Smith and Tommy Fleetwood). This leaves 68 golfers in the field trying to punch their ticket to East Lake. There will not be a cut this week, which brings a different strategy into play when it comes to DFS.
