PGA DFS Showdown Picks & Projections: PGA Championship - Round 3

PGA DFS Picks & Projections on DraftKings for Round 3 of the PGA Championship

I can’t remember another tournament with this much parity, especially at a major. If I had to guess the reason, it’s because these pin positions and the slopes on the greens are forcing a large portion of the field to the same spots on their approach shots. Regardless, this tournament is wide open. The weather can always change on a dime, but it looks like the early tee times will have the best conditions on Saturday.

The morning played slightly easier in Round 1, but it wasn’t enough for me to let that impact my thought process heading into Round 2. It looks like we are going to have consistent winds all day on Friday.
