Jordan Spieth and Xander Schauffele have been popular PGA DFS picks for years, but daily Fantasy golf players will have to decide if they can be trusted when they set their PGA DFS strategy for the 2023 Sentry Tournament of Champions, which gets underway from the Plantation Course at Kapalua in Hawaii on Thursday, Jan. 5. Schauffele, who's among the highest priced players on both DraftKings and FanDuel, has won seven PGA Tour events in his career, including the Sentry Tournament of Champions in 2019. Spieth, whose PGA DFS price is $8,200 on DraftKings and $9,800 on FanDuel, won this event in 2016 and secured a runner-up finish in 2014.
Can those household names be relied on as PGA DFS picks this week? Or is it time to fade them in favor of players with a significantly lower price tag? Before you lock in your PGA DFS picks for the Sentry Tournament of Champions 2023, you'll want to see the latest daily Fantasy golf picks, advice and player pool from SportsLine's Mike McClure.

2023 Sentry Tournament of Champions PGA DFS picks
One of McClure's top PGA DFS picks for the 2023 Sentry Tournament of Champions is Jon Rahm at $10,000 on DraftKings and $12,000 on FanDuel. Rahm secured a runner-up finish at this event last year, his second runner-up finish in his last five starts at the Sentry Tournament of Champions.
Rahm's familiarity with the course, coupled with his impressive stats from the 2022-23 season is a major reason why McClure is so high on him this week. The Spaniard enters this week's event ranked third in driving accuracy percentage (80.36%), eighth in greens in regulation percentage (75.00%) and 12th in driving distance (317.6), all of which makes him an extremely valuable PGA DFS asset. He's also finished T-8 or better in three of his last four official starts on the PGA Tour.
McClure's optimal PGA DFS strategy also includes rostering Justin Thomas at $9,900 on DraftKings and $11,500 on FanDuel. Thomas has been dominant at the Sentry Tournament of Champions in recent years. Thomas finished on top of the leaderboard in 2017 and 2020 and he's finished inside the top-five in each of his last four starts at this event.
Thomas is also coming off a top-five finish at the Hero World Challenge in December and history indicates the 29-year-old could be in the mix again this week at Kapula. Lock him in your PGA DFS lineups and look for a big return at the Sentry Tournament of Champions. See who else to back right here.
