Fantasy Golf Tournament Preview- Wyndham Championship
OVERVIEW
The final week of the regular PGA Tour season is finally here. It’s been a long grind for a lot of our favorite players and some not so favorite. This week we’ve got some bubble boys to discuss, but as usual we’ll lean on course horses and players in form. The greens here are some of the easiest to hit which means we should see an increase in greens in regulation percentage, but they’re big & have some decent undulations to them; Proximity to the hole will be important to ensure they’re not putting through various breaks. There’s only two par 5’s on the course this week, but you absolutely have to score on them or you’ll get lapped by the field so I’ll be using all of the scoring to Par statistics this week as opposed to just Par 4 & Par 5 scoring performance/birdies or better.
