The PGA Tour is heading into a busy two-week stretch beginning with Thursday's 2020 WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational in Memphis. The world's top eight players will all be in the 2020 WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational field at TPC Southwind, meaning there are plenty of popular PGA DFS picks to choose from. In fact, defending champ Brooks Koepka, six-time WGC winner Dustin Johnson, former world No. 1 Rory McIlroy and new world No. 1 Jon Rahm are all potential PGA DFS picks.
Investing in players like Koepka, Johnson, McIlroy or Rahm means it is necessary to also find value further down the daily Fantasy golf player pool. FanDuel and DraftKings are both hosting tournaments that pay six-figures to the winners, so there are plenty of difficult decisions to make before finalizing your PGA DFS strategy. Before you enter these PGA DFS tournaments or any others for the 2020 WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational, 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 3M Open, McClure was extremely high on Max Homa as a value pick at $8,000 on DraftKings and $9,500 on FanDuel. The result: Homa secured a third place finish and anybody who had him in their lineup was well on their way to a huge weekend.
In addition, McClure's proven golf model was all over long shot winner Jon Rahm two weeks ago at the Memorial Tournament. McClure's golf model identified him as a top contender from the start despite his long odds and he recommended an outright bet on him to win at 22-1. It also had him as the projected winner heading into the weekend.
McClure's model was also all over long shot winner Collin Morikawa at the Workday Charity Open. It identified him as a top contender from the start despite his long odds and McClure recommended an outright bet on him to win at 33-1. The model also called Bryson DeChambeau taking the Rocket Mortgage Classic and has nailed two of the last three majors entering the 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 WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational.
Top WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational PGA DFS picks
One of McClure's top PGA DFS picks for the WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational 2020: Abraham Ancer at $8,400 on DraftKings and $9,300 on FanDuel.
At No. 15 in the FedEx Cup points standings, Ancer has three top-15 finishes in his last four events. Ancer was second at the RBC Heritage, finished 11th at the Travelers Championship and took 14th at the Charles Schwab Challenge.
Ancer, who has three additional top-10s this season, is 13th on tour in scoring average at 69.88 strokes per round. While he is still looking for his first PGA Tour win, Ancer has all the game necessary to make a deep run at TPC Southwind. Ancer is a steal at this price point, and McClure recommends locking him in your PGA DFS lineups for a big return this week at the WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational.
McClure's optimal PGA DFS strategy also includes rostering Daniel Berger at $9,600 on DraftKings and $10,500 on FanDuel. Berger certainly has the game to be near the top of the 2020 WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational leaderboard on Sunday. The 27-year-old, who won back-to-back titles at the FedEx St. Jude Classic in 2016 and 2017, has finished inside the top 10 in five of his last six starts on the PGA Tour.
Berger earned his third PGA Tour victory at the Charles Schwab Challenge in June and will enter this week's event ranked in the top 10 in both birdie average (4.48) and scoring average (69.454), which should allow him to return plenty of value at TPC Southwind. Lock him in your PGA DFS lineups and look for a big return this week at the WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational 2020.
