Fantasy Golf Tournament Preview- WGC Mexico

OVERVIEW
The 2nd no cut week is upon us as we head back to Mexico for the 2nd installment of this event. As you may remember, last year a ton of people got sick, Henrik s’d his p’s and withdrew before you could say Charmin and DJ stomped the field as we’ve seen all too often. What you may not remember is Tommy Fleetwood’s amazing final round to lock up a 2nd place finish, as well as Thomas Pieters playing consistently strong golf throughout the tournament as well as Ross Fisher becoming a household name in the PGA DFS world. If I had to guess how things play out this year, I’d say the players are a bit more careful with the foods they ingest and we don’t see as many issues this year so don’t let all the things you see on twitter this week affect your decisions.
