I called it early last week after Luke List became Luke Lost. SE Kim didn’t help. I have a hard time watching the rest of these random tournaments after my lineups are completely dead.
The field this week actually has a few bigger names, but it’s AT&T Byron Nelson so I’m tempering my expectations. I opened up the projection page and saw the LIV guys in the field, which I assume was a glitch, but there was a glimmer of hope in my eyes. I’ll never pass up a chance at clicking Mr. Gooch or Cockrack. My face when I realized they weren’t in the field:

It’s hard to justify some of these top golfers and it’s even harder to justify anyone besides Scottie. There is no fucking way I’m playing Hatton at $10.1k. I play Hatton a lot, but not at that price holy shit. It’s Tom fucking Kim time. I’ve said a few times that I will be playing Tom Kim until further notice. Notice has not been provided yet. Outside of his sack gurgling routine at RBC Heritage (Missed cut), he’s made 8 of his last 9 cuts, including a T16 at the Masters. At that price, he’s clearly the best play above $9k.
Seamus Power has had the worst day at his job a few times so far this year, but there is some optimism that he may be turning a corner. He finished T18 last week at Quail Hollow and T46 at the Masters last month. At under 10%, I don’t think I can pass him up this week. He has great course history at this event, finishing T17 and T9 in the past 2 years. It’s power hour time. Live shot of Seamus on Sunday unveiling it:
In the $7ks my eyes went no further than Davis Riley. In his limited course sample size of 1 tournament, he has a T9 finish. That’s enough for me. I’m full-mast at anything close to that for course history. I have no other way of saying it. He’s been fucking terrible as of late outside of a miracle win at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans in late April. He’s missed 3 cuts and WD in 4 of his last 6 tournaments. I expect a big bounceback this week at an event where he played well last year.
It’s time to go back to the fucking well. Patton “Jizzer” Kizzire is one of my favorite plays in the $7k range. At $7.3k and a 2% ownership projection, you aren’t going to find a better deal. He was fucking terrible here last year, finishing 83rd, but has a top-3 finish on his resume in 2021. He’s missed 2 straight cuts but made 5 in a row before that. I expect him to get back on track at an event that he’s had success at in years past.
It’s time for the Cash God Guarantee. I hate doing this but I can’t help myself in this case. It’s K.H. Lee time. The course history popped up and showed back-to-back wins. I audibly mumbled “Say no more” and began to lock him in. There isn’t a better top-priced option than him and he is projected to be 15% owned, which is the lowest of any $9k golfer outside of Si Woo Kim. He’s been dialing into form in his last 4 events with 3 top 25s, including one at the Masters and a T8 last week at Quail Hollow. I have no fucking choice but to lock him in this week. I need this one bad, I’ve been seeing a red fucking carpet of losses.
I’ll be back next week.
