Fantasy Golf: The Travelers Championship Preview

It's going to be a very thin preview as things snowballed on me a bit after picking my second winner in three weeks. I know Jon Rahm was the prohibitive favorite but, if you're familiar with the typical methodology of the FGR, you know that historically would have led to a creative pick of Will Zalatoris followed by two days of extreme sulking after he missed the cut. Maybe after ten plus years I'm starting to figure it out (I doubt it).

We're going to keep playing it chalky this week and go with multiple past champion Bubba Watson. Fantasy Golf 101 dictates that you either take Bubba at Augusta, Riviera or here because eight of his twelve wins have come on those three courses. The rest of the picks are solid. You'll just have to trust me. 

One and Done Pick: Bubba Watson

It's all-in on Bubba week! Always
one of the most exciting of the year.

Other Guy I'd Pick: Abraham Ancer

Sleeper Pick: Chez Reavie

DraftKings Top Ten Values

Bryson DeChambeau	$11,100
Paul Casey	$9,900
Abraham Ancer	$9,100
Bubba Watson	$8,900
Charley Hoffman	$8,600
Marc Leishman	$8,100
Keegan Bradley	$7,900
Sam Burns	$7,700
Mackenzie Hughes	$7,100
Chez Reavie	$7,000

In addition to the brilliance above, I'd also take a hard look at Kevin Streelman and Brian Harman. A very hard look. I would also take a look at Keegan Bradley and Brendan Steele but with slightly less intensity.
