Zac Blair Daily Fantasy News, Rankings, Projections

Low scores were the theme of the day for the first round of The American Express. Much to the surprise of many in the DFS community many of these low scores were shot by players normally reserved as GPP plays only. Grayson Murray and Zac Blair share the lead after both posting rounds of 64. With 10 of the top 15 round one scores shot by golfers who are both cheap in price and low in ownership, there are quite a few unexpected names near the top of the leaderboard Thursday afternoon. If the weather pattern stays the same we will see more low scores this week, so those golfers who played well today will have to keep up aggressive play in order to keep pace.

The level of talent year in professional golf makes it very common for players to bounce back and forth between the Korn Ferry Tour and the PGA Tour. Fresh off what he hopes to be his only stint on The Korn Ferry Tour, Zac Blair is in this week's field. As you are looking for value in a week where stars and scrubs lineup builds will be very common, Blair is a player worth considering. With over 110 PGA tour starts under his belt, Blair will not be in an unfamiliar spot in comparison to his fellow tour rookies. Not the longest of golfers Blair will rely on his ability to hit fairways and greens to play well at The Old White Course. Making his fourth start at this event Blair will look to improve on 2 made cuts. From an expectation standpoint, Blair with a made cut and a top 40 type finish should be enough to pay off his salary in this new top 65 and cut format.
