PGA DFS: Round 2 Showdown Picks & Projections - 3M Open
PGA DFS Showdown Picks and Projections – Round 2
I hope the Billy Horschel post-lock withdrawal burned very few of you. There is no worse feeling in PGA DFS. A lot can change before the official cut is made after Round 2 but as it stands now, less than 5% of lineups have all six of their golfers at -1 or better. My main lineup makes up a tiny portion of that 5%, but four of my golfers are right on the cut line. It’s going to be a sweaty Friday for yours truly. Regarding the forecast, we can expect tougher scoring conditions in Round 2. The gusts look worse in the morning, while the sustained winds are worse in the afternoon. I’m not leaning toward a specific wave when it comes to my player pool.
