PGA DFS: Wells Fargo Championship DFS Picks & Projections

All salaries come from DraftKings.

Xander Schauffele — $10,700

There are numerous top-end players, starting with Rory McIlroy, who will still be popular despite the poor form. That said, Xander Schauffele stands out as a potential leverage play against other top-end players. While his price tag may seem high, it should also lead to a potential reduction in ownership. Schauffele has been playing consistent golf lately, finishing fourth in Harbour Town at the RBC Heritage and 10th at The Masters. Schauffele’s irons have been steadily improving, and his off-tee game is one of his strengths, making Quail Hollow a track he should be able to handle. While his putting can be unpredictable, Schauffele should be the lowest-owned option among the top-end players this week.

Tommy Fleetwood — $8,000

Tommy Fleetwood is always a volatile issue in the betting world because he still is searching for that first PGA Tour win. However, he is a solid play in DFS because he plays rock-solid golf. That has led to him making cuts and gaining strokes in every category. He finished third at the Valspar, 15th last time out at the RBC Heritage, and top 40 at THE PLAYERS and The Masters. Going to Quail Hollow should allow Fleetwood to lean on his ball striking, and with the field being so strong, he offers upside in the mid-range despite projecting around 15% to 20% ownership.

Patrick Rodgers — $7,500

With a deep field, there is plenty of appeal in utilizing a balanced build. For a solid pay-down option in the mid-$7,000 range, Patrick Rodgers is a great choice given his skillset and recent form. He has finished within the top 20 in his last three tournaments, including a 10th-place finish last week in Mexico, where he gained strokes across the board. While he may pick up some ownership, it should not be a concern, and he offers putting upside that justifies Rodgers interest this week.
