Fantasy Golf Tournament Preview- Dell Technologies Championship
OVERVIEW
Week 2 of the FedEx Cup Playoffs brings us another “new” event, though this week the sponsor is the only change. We’re back at the Arnold Palmer design at TPC Boston (previously known as the Deutsch Bank Championship) where the field is cut down to the Top 100 in FedEx Cup points. The greens this week are Bentgrass, so there shouldn’t be much chatter on twitter regarding which putting specialists to target, which is a bummer because I love seeing people argue about which types of putters “we” should be targeting. One last note, the tournament doesn’t start until Friday this week, so I doubt we’ll see much overlay (if you were expecting any to begin with).
