Scottie Scheffler and Xander Schauffele have been popular PGA DFS picks this season, but daily Fantasy golf players will have to decide if they can be trusted when they set their PGA DFS strategy for the 2024 Travelers Championship, which tees off from TPC River Highlands on Thursday. Scheffler, who's the highest-priced player on both DraftKings and FanDuel, has won five times this season while securing 12 top-10 finishes. However, Scheffler is coming off a T-41 showing at the U.S. Open, his worst finish of the year.
Schauffele, whose PGA DFS price is $11,200 on DraftKings and $12,100 on FanDuel, has finished T-8 or better in four consecutive starts, which includes a win at the PGA Championship and a runner-up finish at the Wells Fargo Championship. Should your PGA DFS strategy include rostering Scheffler or Schauffele, or is it time to fade them in favor of players with a significantly lower price tag? Before you lock in your PGA DFS picks for the 2024 Travelers Championship, you'll want to see the latest daily Fantasy golf picks, advice and player pool from SportsLine's Mike McClure.
McClure is a DFS pro with over $2 million in career winnings, and he's been red-hot on his PGA Tour picks this season. McClure is also a predictive data engineer at SportsLine who uses a powerful prediction model that simulates every tournament 10,000 times, taking factors like statistical trends, past results, and current form into account. This allows him to find the best PGA DFS values and create optimal lineups that he shares only over at SportsLine. They're a must-see for any PGA DFS player.
Last week at the U.S. Open, McClure identified Bryson DeChambeau as one of his top PGA DFS picks. The result: DeChambeau finished on top of the leaderboard after shooting 6-under par, winning his second career major championship. Anybody who included him in their lineups was well on the way to a profitable weekend.
In addition, McClure's model is up nearly $9,500 on its best bets since June 2020, nailing tournament after tournament. This same model has also nailed a whopping 13 majors entering the weekend, including the 2024 Masters -- its third Masters in a row -- and this year's PGA Championship and U.S. Open.
Now, McClure has set his sights on the 2024 Travelers Championship and revealed his optimal PGA DFS advice, strategy, and player pool. Head to SportsLine now to see his top golf DFS picks for the Travelers Championship 2024.
Top 2024 Travelers Championship PGA DFS picks
One of McClure's top PGA DFS picks for the Travelers Championship 2024 is Jordan Spieth at $8,200 on DraftKings and $10,200 on FanDuel. Spieth enters this week's event as one of the best putters on tour, which will make him an extremely valuable PGA DFS asset at TPC River Highlands. Spieth currently ranks 10th in putting average (1.716).
He's also been effective off the tee this year, ranking seventh in total driving (81) and 11th in strokes gained: off the tee (0.607). He's had success at the Travelers Championship in his career as well, finishing on top of the leaderboard in 2017. Those impressive stats, coupled with his past success, make Spieth a complete steal at this price point, so confidently lock him in your PGA DFS lineups.
McClure's optimal PGA DFS strategy also includes rostering Collin Morikawa at $9,800 on DraftKings and $11,500 on FanDuel.
In order to score well at TPC River Highlands, players will need to be extremely effective off the tee, and few do it better than Morikawa. The 27-year-old enters this week's event ranked second in driving accuracy (77.95%) and 15th in strokes gained: off the tee (0.539). He's also been effective on the green, ranking third in putting average (1.707), eighth in putts per round (27.75) and 10th in one-putt percentage (44.23%). Those impressive stats have helped Morikawa finish T-4 or better in three of his last four starts on the PGA Tour, making him a solid building block for PGA DFS lineups.
