Fantasy Golf Tournament Preview- Fiji International (European Tour Package)

OVERVIEW

DraftKings has decided to run contests for this event (giant head scratcher considering the field and the lack of enthusiasm they have for their Euro product) so we’re diving deep right off the bat this week for good plays to mix in with the top of the board this week. Before we get to the course, let me be clear: If you have to play this week, I’d limit most of my exposure to GPP’s and either a small amount to cash games, or 0% and make sure you scale way back on the amount you have in play (unless there’s massive overlay). The course looks gorgeous, but I can’t say I know much about it other than it looks like a resort course (as if anyone would be playing in Fiji if it wasn’t). The course features five par 4’s under 400 yards, and none of the Par 3’s are over 200 yards. Aussies have shown up here in the past, so we’ll be going heavy on anyone that’s an Aussie or a Kiwi (New Zealand). For a more in depth look at the course, click here.
