Odds vs Salary

This is where I like to start - the odds vs salary view to see who is atop the chart and where the values might be. It also points to leverage spots (green dots). Greenest dot is Lee Hodges in this view followed by Mark Hubbard. I dont know what to think of either right now as quite frankly they have sucked for the most part when I have gone there.

Hatton has the top odds of success followed by Kuchar, who has great history here- so neither will be low owned.

Hideki, Noren, Bez and Hossler all have some leverage appeal as well.

On the cheap side, Palmer, Bramlett, An and Piercy could all be in play for low ownership. Check the tables below for more plays based on the first column name.

Here is a filtered view to stronger plays

Guy I will push til he wins?

Nick Taylor. I locked him last week for the same reason and he gave me a top 10. Why not try again?

Core but Leveraged

The 7k guys seem to shine this week in this section. I'm going to try and use these guys in my builds the most. I will use an optimizer around them, but 1 or 2 lineups will be hand builds with respect to 2 or 3 of these guys.

Lower than expected ownership

Hatton may be a must play, but I can also see Hideki as an intruiging pivot off of Hatton potentially at half his ownership. His health is critical to whether or not thats a sharp pivot or not.

Course fits

Per Datagolf, driving is not nearly as important here in accuracy or distance. Around the green, Approach and Putting can help these golfers succeed more.

Historically

Kinda wild - but Corey Conners has gained more strokes at this course than the rest of the field, with 4 top 20s posted in my lookback. He will be one of the popular plays this week but seems safe on that note.

Hope thats good enough to get you started on your lineups!
