Picking both winners in the TEAM games in December got me a hardy “nice job” but no points in the standings.
We’re back this week with the Sentry, event No. 1 of a nine week stretch that will take us up to THE PLAYERS Championship, knock on wood.
EXPERT PICKS: SENTRY TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
SEAN MARTIN SENIOR EDITOR | Dustin Johnson Jon Rahm Xander Schauffele Justin Thomas Collin Morikawa Patrick Reed | Dustin Johnson | There’s no reason to overthink this. | |
BEN EVERILL STAFF WRITER | Dustin Johnson Patrick Reed Xander Schauffele Cameron Smith Bryson DeChambeau Justin Thomas | Xander Schauffele | A huge year for the X-Man starts here at Kapalua where he has been a force in recent seasons. | |
ROB BOLTON FANTASY INSIDER | Hideki Matsuyama Jon Rahm Xander Schauffele Justin Thomas Dustin Johnson Patrick Reed | Dustin Johnson | Because roster management throughout Segment 2 shouldn’t be a heavy lift, we can lean on course history en route to the guaranteed bonus points at Kapalua. | |
MIKE GLASSCOTT FANTASY CONTRIBUTOR | Dustin Johnson Patrick Reed Xander Schauffele Justin Thomas Jon Rahm Webb Simpson | Justin Thomas | Defending champion has two wins and a solo third in the last four years. He’s circled 20-plus birdies in five of his last six visits and his record on the Pacific Rim is fantastic. | |
JASON SOBEL THE ACTION NETWORK, GOLFBET | Patrick Cantlay Tony Finau Xander Schauffele Cameron Smith Mackenzie Hughes Andrew Landry | Patrick Cantlay | Not every player will treat this week like a business trip. I want guys who are more into competing than whale-watching and paddle-boarding – and Cantlay tops that list. | |
CAMERON MORFIT STAFF WRITER | Patrick Cantlay Dustin Johnson Xander Schauffele Justin Thomas Jon Rahm Patrick Reed | Xander Schauffele | A win and a playoff loss in his last two trips to Kapalua. Good enough for me. |
