Walking in Memphis won’t be as hot as years past.
This fella is back to defend his title.

DraftKings has plenty of ways to join the action weekly in a salary-cap-format game. Gamers pick six players on a budget of $50,000 and hope they make the cut and go low. Each week I’ll list the players who I think have the most value and give examples of potential lineups.

Last Time:
I should have just kept my Colonial team on the field and not changed anything. At least I would have had the winner with Dufner!
Instead, I rolled with this group of merry men, who, to be fair, put up a gallant fight.
Jordan Spieth ($11,000): T-13 after playing the weekend in even par.
Hideki Matsuyama ($10,000): Bookend 70’s couldn’t wipe out 74-76 middle; T-45.
Matt Kuchar ($9,400): He is now 73-under-par here since 2009; T-4.
Sean O’Hair ($6,700): His back-to-back top five streak stopped but he cashed a check; T-52.
Smylie Kaufman ($6,600): Crashed and burned with 73-77; MC.
Jamie Lovemark ($6,300): Hitting a top 10 in this range is a victory. His 73 on Sunday saw him leak a few bucks but no change I’m hardly dismayed.
This Week:

Usually difficult golf courses appeal to multiple styles of play and TPC Southwind is not any different.
Brian Gay posted 19-under here to set the tournament record by a mile. David Toms and Justin Leonard, neither fella is going to win a long drive contest, have won multiple times on this layout.
Lee Westwood, Dustin Johnson and Daniel Berger overpowered this place sight unseen in winning in this decade.
Fabian Gomez and Ben Crane also took home the trophy in the last three years.
I’d suggest mixing a bit of class with a drop of veteran with a sprinkle of non-winner.
Or just have a Jack and Coke and start firing away!
My lineup this week:
Plan B
