Cash Lineup Review: PGA Championship

Our Adam Levitan devised a tried and true method for reviewing his NFL DFS cash lineups every week. And if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. My goal here is simply to apply Adam’s structure to PGA DFS cash lineups.

To steal directly from Adam, I play around 50-75% of my action each week in “cash games”. Cash games refer to any contest in which roughly 50% of the field gets paid out, such as head-to-heads, double-ups, or 50/50s. 

Each week, I’ll review my cash-game lineup in this space. Sometimes I’ll lose, but hopefully I’ll win more often. Either way, I’ll post it here and give you my thought process. For more on PGA cash-game strategy, see my How to Beat PGA DFS Cash Games article.

Returning to Quail Hollow for the PGA Championship, this iteration gave us some familiarity with the course that we don’t normally have for PGA Championships, as Quail is an every-year stop on the PGA Tour. As a result, we had stronger expectations of how the course would play, more definitive course history for most players, and more confidence in the projections inputs than usual for a non-Masters major. The primary difference between this year’s PGA Championship at Quail and the past PGA Tour stops at Quail was simply the inclusion of golfers from LIV Golf.
