The Tour stops in Memphis for the 60th time and the 11th-consecutive year as the event used as a tune-up for the U.S. Open

PGA Tour Fantasy Golf Game

Each week, I’ll trot out guys who I believe who fit the course, the game and the road map, plus add some substitutes. Four starters are supported by two bench players each week. Remember, once a player tees off in your lineup he burns a start, so make sure you need to sub out instead of want to sub out.

You’ll learn a few things about me each week in this column.

Games, like this one, that involve daily substitution options, I am terrible at playing.

I’ll give you my best four starters and two bench options but it’s up to you to outguess me on which rounds they should sit or play.

No Rickie.

No Jason.

No Bubba.

No Justin.

No Jordan.

Thankfully, no Dustin.

I still found a way to gain 17 spots and break back into the top 100 and that was with completely botching my lineups during the tournament but, hell, I’m used to that.

 

This Week

Gamers will be rewarded for “saving” their pieces who are in the field this week. With this week and two more, it’s go time.

This game rewards managers who exploit tournaments like this because the majors have the best fields; you’ll always find somebody to fill the six spots next week!

I’m going to chuck in a bunch of heavyweights and a flier or two as that is what the leaderboard annually looks like on Sunday afternoon at TPC Southwind.

Alternate Alternatives

Hell, I’d have no problem with these six guys either!
