Fantasy Golf Tournament Preview- Quicken Loans National

OVERVIEW
This week the event is at a new course, so you won’t be seeing the course history listed below. Some of the players have some history on the course itself, but it’s so scattered amongst the players that I don’t think it’s valuable to list for most of the players. It is worth noting that David Lingmerth won the Booz Allen Classic on this course in 2012, which tells me that the course caters to ball strikers, so naturally we’ll be targeting those types of players this week.
