Fantasy Golf Tournament Preview- The Rocco Forte Open (European Package)

OVERVIEW

Last week was a good week to dial it back a bit due to DraftKings running bigger tournaments for THE PLAYERS, this week I recommend scaling up between where you’d normally play, and where you played last week as this is a good week to take advantage of some plays that might be lesser known to the casual European Tour DFSer. New event and a weak field this week in Italy, so buckle up. The course is primarily links style, so we’ll be targeting those that play well on that type of course layout, versus tree lined “specialists” as well as a few Italian-bred players. Length off the tee looks to be the main benefactor here, so when in doubt, target bombers.
