Rory McIlroy is expected to be among the top daily Fantasy golf picks this week for the 2022 RBC Canadian Open. McIlroy is the defending champion of this event and he's secured a top-10 finish in three of his last four starts on the PGA Tour. However, daily Fantasy golf players will have to decide if he can be trusted when setting their PGA DFS strategy for the RBC Canadian Open 2022, which gets underway on Thursday, June 9.
McIlroy is among the highest priced golfers in the PGA DFS player pool on sites like DraftKings and FanDuel, so he'll need a strong showing to provide value. Should McIlroy be included in your PGA DFS lineups at the 2022 RBC Canadian Open? Or is it time to fade him in favor of players with a significantly lower price tag? Before you lock in your PGA DFS picks for the 2022 RBC Canadian Open, check out the latest daily Fantasy golf picks, advice and player pool from SportsLine's Mike McClure.

2022 RBC Canadian Open PGA DFS picks
One of McClure's top PGA DFS picks for the RBC Canadian Open 2022 is Matthew Fitzpatrick at $9,900 on DraftKings and $11,300 on FanDuel. Fitzpatrick enters this week's event full of confidence. That's because the 27-year-old has already secured six top-10 finishes this season, which includes finishing T-5 or better in two of his last three starts.
Fitzpatrick ranks 11th or better in several important statistical categories, including strokes gained: tee-to-green (1.611), strokes gained: off-the-tee (.602) and strokes gained: around-the-green (.496). He also enters the 2022 RBC Canadian Open ranked fourth in scoring average (69.508), which makes him an extremely valuable PGA DFS asset this week.
McClure's optimal PGA DFS strategy also includes rostering Corey Conners at $9,600 on DraftKings and $11,200 on FanDuel. Conners is still looking for his first win this season, but he's been playing well in recent weeks.
In fact, Conners has finished T-13 or better in three of his last five starts, which includes a T-6 finish at the Masters in April. Conners has been able to secure those positive results thanks in large part to his impeccable iron play. The 30-year-old Canadian currently ranks fourth in greens in regulation percentage (70.18), which has helped him rack up 223 birdies this season. Lock him in your PGA DFS lineups and look for a big return this week at St. George's.
