EXPERT PICKS: BMW CHAMPIONSHIP
| EXPERT | LINEUP | WINNER | COMMENT | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BEN EVERILL STAFF WRITER | Dustin Johnson Xander Schauffele Justin Thomas Cameron Smith Patrick Cantlay Viktor Hovland | Cameron Smith | He was a “stunned mullet” after his playoff drive sailed OB – much like Rob Bolton was watching me once again take the lead from him – but Smithy will bounce back in style with a win here. Rob won’t. | |
| ROB BOLTON FANTASY INSIDER | Bryson DeChambeau Dustin Johnson Cameron Smith Justin Thomas Patrick Cantlay Jon Rahm | Jon Rahm | All right, it’s my turn to move back in front. Again. Gotta slow-play my last start on Rahm unless Ben is going to stymie across the board, but there are too many useful options to win that game of whack-a-Bolton. | |
| MIKE GLASSCOTT FANTASY CONTRIBUTOR | Patrick Cantlay Dustin Johnson Jon Rahm Justin Thomas Bryson DeChambeau Scottie Scheffler | Jon Rahm | The only things to slow him down this season have been COVID and a hurricane delay. I don’t think either of those are in the forecast this weekend! I only have one start left so he’ll begin on the bench. | |
| SEAN MARTIN SENIOR EDITOR | Dustin Johnson Collin Morikawa Scottie Scheffler Justin Thomas Tony Finau Xander Schauffele | Justin Thomas | Ended THE NORTHERN TRUST on a good note with some late birdies to jump up the leaderboard, and he thrives when the FedExCup Playoffs start to heat up. | |
| CAMERON MORFIT STAFF WRITER | Tony Finau Rory McIlroy Cameron Smith Justin Thomas Collin Morikawa Jordan Spieth | Justin Thomas | A very quiet T4 at THE NORTHERN TRUST, but he birdied four of the last seven holes and just looks like he’s due to win again. | |
| JASON SOBEL THE ACTION NETWORK, GOLFBET | Charley Hoffman Dustin Johnson Xander Schauffele Scottie Scheffler Keegan Bradley Keith Mitchell | Dustin Johnson | He’s not playing his best golf, but Caves Valley has been called a “big, Northeast, bentgrass course,” which should be right up his alley. |
