PGA DFS players who went with Webb Simpson last week were richly rewarded, as the veteran rallied to win at Harbour Town. Simpson is in the field again this week at Thursday's 2020 Travelers Championship and carries a price of $10,500 on DraftKings and $11,600 on FanDuel. Anyone entering Travelers Championship DFS tournaments and cash games can choose to ride a hot hand like Simpson or perhaps invest heavily in world No. 1 Rory McIlroy, who has placed outside the top 30 the last two weeks but is still $11,200 on DraftKings and $11,900 on FanDuel.
Can Simpson go back-to-back by winning at TPC River Highlands? Or is McIlroy overdue for a strong finish and primed to be among your top PGA DFS picks this week? Before you enter these golf DFS tournaments or any others for the Travelers Championship 2020, you'll want to see the top PGA DFS picks, advice and player pool from SportsLine's Mike McClure.
McClure is a DFS pro with nearly $2 million in career winnings, and he's been red-hot on his PGA Tour picks this season. McClure is also a predictive data engineer at SportsLine who uses a powerful prediction model that simulates every tournament 10,000 times, taking factors like statistical trends, past results and current form into account. This allows him to find the best PGA DFS values and create optimal lineups that he shares only over at SportsLine. They're a must-see for any PGA DFS player.
Last week at the RBC Heritage, McClure was extremely high on Webb Simpson. The result: Simpson shot 22-under par and finished on top of the crowded leaderboard, earning his second PGA Tour victory this season. Anybody who had him in their lineup was well on their way to a huge weekend.
Now, McClure has set his sights on this week's event and revealed his optimal PGA DFS advice, strategy and player pool. Head to SportsLine now to see his top daily Fantasy golf picks for the 2020 Travelers Championship.
Top Travelers Championship PGA DFS picks
One of McClure's top PGA DFS picks for the Travelers Championship 2020: Patrick Cantlay at $9,800 on DraftKings and $11,300 on FanDuel.
The seventh-ranked player in the world, Cantlay has already enjoyed a strong start to the 2019-20 PGA Tour season. Cantlay was second to Kevin Na at the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open and fourth at the Sentry Tournament of Champions en route to almost $1.5 million in earnings. Cantlay is making his first start of the rebooted season, but he is no stranger to TPC River Highlands, finishing 15th in both the 2019 and 2018 events. With two victories on the PGA Tour and all the game needed to contend, the 28-year-old Cantlay can return tournament-winning value at an affordable PGA DFS price.
McClure's optimal PGA DFS strategy also includes rostering Paul Casey at $10,700 on FanDuel and $8,900 on DraftKings.
Casey, who's finished in the top five in his last three starts at this event, is an almost sure-fire bet to be near the top of the leaderboard come Sunday. Casey's greens in regulation percentage is what makes him a strong PGA DFS play this week at TPC River Highlands. The 42-year-old enters the 2020 Travelers Championship hitting over 70 percent of greens in regulation this season, which results in more birdie opportunities and more chances to rack up points on sites like FanDuel and DraftKings. He's a complete steal at his price point.
How to set your Travelers Championship DFS lineups
McClure is also targeting an undervalued player who's primed to blow up this week, giving you a huge return on both sites. Picks like these could be the difference between winning your PGA DFS contests or going home with nothing. You can see who it is here.
