Glass Houses

Thoughts on Chalk:

Scottie Scheffler (+600): I don’t think it’s a surprise that he’s drifting away from his opening number. With the career Grand Slam front and center for the first time, plus his admitted lack of reps in environments like Southampton, I’d wade into the top 10 market but there’s no value. Live betting is probably the only angle here.

Rory McIlroy (+1100): 80-70 in 2018, his third consecutive MC at a U.S. Open. His streak of six straight top 10s was busted last year with T19. I won’t and can’t fade him.

Jon Rahm (+1200): He’s my Fantasy Captain and has the game for the most difficult conditions.

Matt Fitzpatrick (+1800): The tougher, the better, and already a proven winner on a U.S. Open setup.

Tommy Fleetwood (+1800): He won’t have the same crowd support as he will at Royal Birkdale. It might not matter.

Xander Schauffele (+1800): His track record at this event and in major championships is stellar. All aboard.

Cameron Young (+2200): Like Fleetwood, yet to win a major, but has all the tools. His best finish in a major championship was second place in 2022 at The Open Championship.

Ludvig Aberg (+2200): I don’t have enough evidence of his success in windy conditions. Superb young player and ball-striker.

Sam Burns (+3000): Make or break this week. Super putting doesn’t wipe out average scrambling and approach play.

Longer shots who deserve notice: English, Matsuyama, Koepka (if healthy), Min Woo Lee, Alex Noren, and Gary Woodland.

Last WEEK – RBC Canadian Open

Wyndham Clark, Sam Burns, or Nick Taylor.

Flip a three-headed Canadian coin to find your answer.

I would hate to endorse one and ruin your chances!

THE CHOICE: Zach Bauchou – MC

There, you’re welcome!

Everyone I listed last week was disappointing.

I surrender.

This Week – U.S. Open

The Choice: Xander Schauffele

I’ve been on the record for a while that he was going in this week.

You can always save him for next week or East Lake if you’re not down with his T9-T7 majors record from 2026.

Or his 9-9 at the U.S. Open.

Whatever. This is one of SIX remaining events with a $20 million or better prize pool, and THREE do not have a cut. I think you need to work backwards from The TOUR Championship. Also, this is the penultimate event for the LIV guys (The Open). I would hate to realize Rahm, Hatton, or Reed was left on the bench.

You do you.

The Pick – Jordan Spieth – MC

A second round 79 after posting 1-under on Thursday was very SPIETHIAN.

And very GLASSIAN in OAD.

No money at THE PLAYERS, PGA Championship, or Jack’s Place.

What a stupid I am.

This Week – RBC Canadian Open

Wyndham Clark, Sam Burns, or Nick Taylor.

THE CHOICE: Zach Bauchou

There, you’re welcome!

DraftKings Prop Bets for the RBC Canadian Open

Winners Without Fleetwood, Matt Fitzpatrick, Wyndham Clark, and Sam Burns

The first edition at TPC Osprey Valley, a Par-70 layout playing 7,389 yards, featured a shoot-out with 18-under-par 262 necessary to qualify for a playoff. The top 35 players signed for just four rounds over 70 for the week, and each round of the tournament featured a score of 63 OR BETTER!

Eliminating the four players above knocks out the three top finishers from the Memorial last week (Clark -3^rd, Fleetwood and Burns, T4) and the only three-time winner on the PGA TOUR this season in Matt Fitzpatrick.

Kristoffer Reitan (+2150) made his name on the DP World Tour in 2025 with three victories. After an unsurprisingly slow start to his PGA TOUR season, he has been electric after the calendar turned to April. The Norwegian has not missed the cut in his last seven events and picked up his first victory on TOUR at the Truist Championship, a Signature Event. He arrives 40 miles outside Toronto after playing his final 54 holes at the Memorial Tournament in 11-under-par for T6, including 65 during the marathon Sunday final round. Strong off the tee, his power will put him in premium positions to attack flags and rack up birdies. On a course where there is very little trouble off the fairways and surrounding the larger-than-average greens, he can press SEND all week.

I will add the other finisher at Memorial who shared sixth place, Alex Fitzpatrick (+3400), to this play. Also a winner on TOUR in 2026, the Englishman won the Zurich Classic of New Orleans with his brother, listed above, and has not looked back. After his breakthrough win, he shared ninth at the Cadillac Championship before earning a solo fourth place at the Truist Championship. Playing his sixth event of the season, his only finish OUTSIDE OF THE TOP 10 was T75 at the PGA Championship.

My long shot is Aldrich Potgieter (+6800). The South African won the 2025 Rocket Classic at a similar parkland-style course with few hazards last summer. Quietly, he has picked off paydays in his last four and five of his last six, including for at T35 or better. He leads the TOUR in Driving Distance, however you measure it, and sits in the middle of the pack in GIR. Knowing he will have the freedom to fire away off the tee should pique his interest, but he will need his putter to pass through customs!

Top 10 (including ties) – Same Game Parlay – (+700)

Red-hot Wyndham Clark arrives after closing with 60 to win THE CJ CUP Byron Nelson and a solo third at a more demanding Memorial Tournament last week. His only finish outside T21 in his previous six events was an MC at the PGA Championship. This week, he returns to TPC Osprey Valley, where he made 20 birdies in 2025 but finished T59. I am pairing him with the 2025 playoff runner-up, Sam Burns. Making his fifth trip to Canada, he owns three top-10 paydays regardless of the course used for the national open. On a run of eight consecutive weekends, his next step is getting it over the finish line. He closed with 62 last year and circled 22 birdies and one eagle for the week. He would be on my short list for First Round Leader (depending on tee times, morning preference) as well!

Canadian Power Play – Top 20 (including ties) – Same Game Parlay (+750)

At the 2023 RBC Canadian Open at Oakdale Golf & CC, Nick Taylor became the first Canadian winner since 1954 when he sank THAT EAGLE PUTT to knock out Fleetwood in a playoff. Now a five-time winner on TOUR, he returns for his second go-around at TPC Osprey Valley and will attempt to improve on four rounds in the 60s and a T13 payday. He enters the week making the cut in seven consecutive events and has opened with a round in the 60s in his last five. I am pairing him with Taylor Pendrith, another GIR machine who cashed T27 here in 2025. The Richmond Hill, Ontario, native has not produced a top 20 result since the first event of the season, T6 at the Sony Open in Hawaii. The inspiration of his home open should be the tonic to kick him into gear. He has not missed the cut in his last five events on TOUR. Now it’s time to finish!

Whoa, Canada! Top 20 (including ties) – Same Game Parlay (+1400)

I have listed the veterans above; now it is time to get in on the new generation of PGA TOUR players from The Great White North. Sudarshan Yellamaraju and A.J. Ewart, both under 30, have forced their way into the conversation in their national open. In a perfect world, I would prefer this in a Top 40 market, but let’s gamble! Yellamaraju, 24, plays from Mississauga, Canada, and cashed 13 times in his previous 16 starts. Balanced throughout his bag, he doesn’t have a problem giving it a knock off the tee (21^st Driving Distance) or making birdies (18^th; 4.25 per round). Ewart, who is 27, cashed T19 at THE CJ CUP Byron Nelson and T17 the next week at the Charles Schwab Challenge. He’s hot! Making the cut 10 times in 14 events, eight of his paydays are T30 or better. Remember, at DraftKings, you can mix and match old and new, or whatever you would like!

Good Luck!

He had an excellent week hitting it while fighting the putter. Back-to-back podium finishes and I’m still going nowhere. Sad!

This Week – Memorial Tournament

The Pick – Jordan Spieth

This time of year, I start glancing at the calendar to see what is left.

After this week, you will get the U.S. Open, Travelers, Scottish, The Open and two FedExCup Playoff events. Plus, you gotta save somebody for The TOUR Championship, right?

Others to consider if you are chasing:

$4 million first place = It’s biggest winner’s check left, you know what to do.

The Memorial Tournament, played annually at Jack Nicklaus’ Muirfield Village Golf Club outside Columbus, Ohio, is the seventh of eight Signature Events in the 2026 season. It is the final Signature Event featuring a 36-hole cut. There are multiple markets to attack the field of 72 players at DraftKings Sportsbook. Let’s dive in!

Winners Without Scottie Scheffler

Scheffler won his opening tournament of the season, The American Express, but has not won in 10 subsequent starts. He returns to Muirfield Village as the two-time defending champion who has been beaten by a total of FOUR PLAYERS in his previous four events outside the Ohio capital city. If there is an event where the No. 1 player in the OWGR is going to find his way back to the winner’s circle, this may be the place. I’m buying insurance this week!

Ben Griffin (+3200) navigated a long, arduous Trump National Doral for a podium finish (solo third) to end April. Defending his championship last week at the Charles Schwab Challenge, he produced four rounds in the 60s, including 65 on Sunday to hit the podium (T3) again. Making his fourth start at Muirfield Village, he was the 18 and 36-hole leader in 2025 and played in the final group with Scheffler on Sunday before cashing solo second, four shots back.

Alex Smalley (+4800) made his first bogey of the week at Colonial on his 38^th hole. He added just three more and cashed T3, his fourth top-10 payday in his previous five starts on TOUR. He was co-runner-up at the PGA Championship at Aronimink three weeks ago. Quietly ranked 11^th in Strokes Gained: Total, his full bag and recent form makes him a perfect outsider this week in a field containing 18 of the 20 players in the OWGR.

Top 10 (including ties) – Same Game Parlay – (+650)

Russell Henley (+150) and Patrick Cantlay (+196)

Henley arrives smoldering after circling birdies on his final three holes to force, then win, a playoff Sunday at the Charles Schwab Challenge. In the 2025 event, he posted two-under 286 to share fifth and cash inside the top 30 for the third consecutive season at Muirfield Village. In April at the Masters, he picked up his first podium of the season, sharing third place.

Cantlay is one of two multiple winners in the field this week. The champion in 2021 and 2019 shared third in 2022 and was the 54-hole leader in 2018 before he cashed T4. Only Scheffler, Tiger Woods, and Jon Rahm (not eligible) have better career scoring averages at Muirfield Village.

Top 20 (including ties) – Same Game Parlay – (+480)

Scottie Scheffler (-850), Jordan Spieth (+124), and Sam Burns (+126)

Spieth enters Ohio on a run of 12 consecutive cuts made on TOUR, including four of his last six T19 or better. At Muirfield Village, the “Augusta of the North”, he qualified for the weekend 11 times in 13 attempts and signed for T19 or better a whopping nine times. His last three visits resulted in T7-MC-T5. He owns a career scoring average of 71.40.

Making his seventh start, Burns produced the best three results in his previous three visits. In 2023, his even-par total was good enough for T16. He shared 15^th place in 2024 on two-over. Last year, a second-round 65 tied for the lowest round of the week and helped to reach T12. He enters the week on seven consecutive cuts made, all T38 or better, and his previous top 10 was T7 at the Masters.

Top 30 – Familiar Territory – Same Game Parlay – (+400)

Veterans Si Woo Kim (-255), Shane Lowry (-102), and Adam Scott (-125) all have plenty of weekend experience at Muirfield Village. Kim owns nine paydays from 10 starts, including a current run of eight in a row. During his current run, seven results have paid T31 or better. The Korean was the 36 and 54-hole leader at THE CJ CUP Byron Nelson before finishing third in his previous start on TOUR. Lowry has five consecutive cuts made with results T32 or better in four of his last five. Scott is also streaking with 11 weekends and counting, including a pair of top-10 paydays in his last five visits. He also cashed in 15 of 16 career visits. Before missing the weekend at the PGA Championship, the Australian rattled off four consecutive paydays of T24 or better. Lowry’s current form isn’t as bright, but he has played every weekend on his own ball since falling short at THE PLAYERS.

The Ladder – Top 5, Top 10, Top 20 (all including ties) – Same Game Parlay – (+2000)

Scottie Scheffler (-150) lost to FOUR PLAYERS at this event in his last four tournaments. That’s the list. Half of the list is not in the field this week. The two-time defending champion cashed solo third in 2023 and solo third in 2021.

Akshay Bhatia (+455) missed the weekend on his 2023 debut but earned T22 money the following season and cashed T16 in 2025 with an 80 on the card. The three-time winner on TOUR already knocked out a Signature Event win at a very demanding Arnold Palmer Invitational in March. He flashed 67-65 to open at the Charles Schwab Challenge last week before fading to T28.

Rickie Fowler (+116) racked up three consecutive top-10 paydays before fading on the weekend at Aronimink to T60. He missed the cut last week at Colonial Country Club, but six of his previous nine paydays at the Memorial are T14 or better, including T7-MC-T9 over the last three years.

Good Luck!

THE CJ CUP Byron Nelson	Si Woo Kim	2^nd	1,122,700

Last WEEK – THE CJ CUP Byron Nelson

The Pick – Si Woo Kim (Solo 2^nd)

I would have EASILY settled for a three-shot lead heading into Sunday, 33 birdies, and a final round 65 before the week started.

Little did I know that Wyndham Clark would be five shots better.

This Week – Charles Schwab Challenge

The Pick – J.J. Spaun

Right, he’s not in my lineup at PGATOUR.COM Fantasy Golf, but he fits what I have left and what I need to leave. He’s not going to win the U.S. Open back-to-back, right? RIGHT?!?!?! While putting is important here, I’ll take my chances with a guy who can keep it in play off the tee and pepper greens in regulation.

I was saving this spot for Jordan Spieth, but he’s a DNS this week.

Bummer.

Spaun was trending nicely (T24, T14, T5) after missing the cut at the Masters. He also missed at Aronimink. This isn’t a major, so let’s ride!

Others to consider, if you are chasing

Justin Thomas, Rickie Fowler, Alex Smalley, Brian Harman, Tony Finau, or Harry Hall

Philly Special

Merion. Philadelphia Cricket Club. Aronimink.

Classic American courses.

Donald Ross won’t bother too many off the tee. The massive greens, unsurprisingly, are the defense. The ability to spin wedges and hold shots on the proper shelves are the first steps to success. Putting from the wrong side of ridges and getting up and down will test the patience of the world’s best players.

After four consecutive weeks of Poa Trivialis overseeding, slick Bentgrass covers the putting surfaces.

Bomb and gouge? Better be able to spin it out of the rough.

The hardest holes (Nos. 11, 15, 17, and 18) are on the inward nine and will determine the champion. A trio of Par-3 holes stretches over 215 yards each. There are only two Par-5 opportunities.

Notes:

Field of 156 players.
There are no amateurs in the field.
97 of the top 100 in the OWGR are playing.
Top SEVENTY and ties play the weekend.
The purse will be announced later in the week, but the winner takes home 750 FedExCup points.

Last WEEK – Truist Championship

Rory McIlroy – T19

He won this event four times and hit the top 10 eight times.

If you have already burned him, you will need a bomber to cover the big ballpark in wet conditions. Schauffele (T60) has run second here the previous two events, but he’s my man for Shinnecock Hills. Ludvig Aberg (T8) would have to be the third choice. A sneaky play might be Adam Scott, Rickie Fowler, or Justin Thomas. Those who are desperate might consider red-hot Alex Smalley or Akshay Bhatia.

Adam Scott – T24

Rickie Fowler – T2

Justin Thomas – 13th

This Week – 108^th PGA Championship

The Pick – Bryson DeChambeau

He won on Donald Ross’s Pinehurst. He’s won in this part of the world at Winged Foot. It’s this week or the U.S. Open.

Others: Ludvig Aberg, Brooks Koepka, Matt Fitzpatrick, J.J. Spaun, and Rickie Fowler.

From The Blue Monster to The Green Mile

Like Doral last week, Quail Hollow Club provides a demanding finish. The final three holes annually rank as one of the toughest trios on TOUR.

Unlike Doral, there are only three Par-5 holes, but a pair of short, possibly drivable Par-4 challenges.

With storms in the forecast for Thursday, a long, arduous walk becomes even longer for those who don’t bomb it. The good news? If wet, the fairways, some of the toughest to hit on TOUR, expand with the balls not rolling out.

Quail Hollow Club hosted the PGA Championship in 2017 (Justin Thomas) and 2025 (Scottie Scheffler – not entered this week), plus the Presidents Cup in 2022.

It will be earned, not given – shout out to Curt Cignetti – this week.

Last WEEK – Cadillac Championship

The Pick: Jake Knapp (WD)

Now, it’s back to work. The obvious choice this week is Scottie Scheffler against a perceived “weakened” field.

I completely buy that angle, especially after finishing second in his previous two outings.

Why would you wait to use Scheffler in an event with McIlroy, Fitzpatrick, MacIntyre, Aberg, Schauffele, Cantlay, Rahm, or DeChambeau playing? For an additional 400k at Memorial? Ok, he’s won the last two there, I won’t argue, much.

As Steve Miller once remarked: Go on, take the money and run.

If you are like me, I hope not, panicked, and took Scheffler already, there are choices below.

Not many have played multiple or any tournament rounds here. There is no course history to provide an angle. I’ll remind you that Adam Scott and Justin Rose won here in their mid-30s. I will also remind you that Rose won at Torrey Pines THIS year. Funny old game…

Others at Doral

Cameron Young, Sepp Straka, Jake Knapp, Chris Gotterup (n/a), Viktor Hovland, Akshay Bhatia, Adam Scott

Guess I should have used my “others”. Young won, Straka and Scott both shared fourth. Gary Woodland, my flippant backup selection, which I never expected to use, blew a tire on Saturday and never recovered.

When you suck, you just suck.

This Week – Truist Championship

Rory McIlroy has won this event four times and hit the top 10 eight times.

If you have already burned him, you will need a bomber to cover the big ballpark in wet conditions. Schauffele has run second here the previous two events, but he’s my man for Shinnecock Hills.

Tournament Scoring Record:	19-under; Tiger Woods (2013); Phil Mickelson (2009).
Course Record:	62; J.B. Holmes (Round 1, 2015).
Fact of the Week:	Doral hosted an event from 1962 through 2016 before this season.
Fact of the Week II:	This is the fifth of eight Signature Events on TOUR.

The Blue Monster

At 7,739 yards, the Blue Monster ranks second to Torrey Pines (South Course) for the longest track on TOUR in 2026. Unlike Torrey Pines, Doral has water on over half of the holes and twice as many sand penalty areas.

There is plenty of water and sand, but also room to work the golf ball from tee to green.

Green speeds will be a manageable 12 feet plus on the Stimpmeter, due to persistent ocean breezes in South Florida.

Hot and steamy conditions will make the golf ball fly. The weather should not be a factor until the final round on Sunday.

Last WEEK – Zurich Classic

THE CHOICE: Alex Fitzpatrick (WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER)

If there are 200 guys in the league, I would expect 197 to play him this week.

The pressure of getting his younger brother over the finish line on Sunday did not bother the older brother. The wobbly back nine was completed in style on the Par-5 finishing hole. Matt’s greenside bunker shot gave younger brother Alex a tap-in for 2.5 years of PGA TOUR status and his first win in 11 starts on TOUR. Both brothers had won in their previous start. Occam’s Razor and all that.

This Week – Cadillac Championship

The Pick: Jake Knapp

Now, it’s back to work. The obvious choice this week is Scottie Scheffler against a perceived “weakened” field.

I completely buy that angle, especially after finishing second in his previous two outings.

Pete Dye is back, again!

The four Par-3 holes play over 200 yards.

The four Par-5 holes play 585 or shorter.

The winning score is 25-under or better in the last four editions.

Have fun this week. Countrymen will proudly represent the Motherland. Former college teammates will don the colors of Alum U. Neighbors, randoms, and everything else will be represented.

Guys who are NOT hitting it well will probably not find it this week. There is nowhere to hide when playing alternate shot on Friday to make the cut. The pressure of letting down your teammate is 1000000 times worse than navigating your own mind.

Guys who are hitting it well, please, jump in with both feet. TPC Louisiana is defended by water and wind, but is not set up to yield high scores.
