2015 OHL Classic at Mayakoba daily fantasy golf picks, strategy & values
The 2015 - 2016 PGA Tour season continues this week at the 2015 OHL Classic at Mayakoba. Charley Hoffman is your defending champion, but he'll have to hold off a flurry of big names if he wants to repeat. We've got your DraftKings fantasy golf picks ready. Let's get crackin'.
Strategy
Winning in daily fantasy sports on sites like DraftKings or Fanduel is next to impossible, especially if you only enter one lineup per contest. The sheer volume of players who enter each contest total the tens of thousands, shrinking your odds of winning anything -- especially a profit -- minuscule. As long as you are willing to accept that risk, then DFS contests can be a lot of fun.

Aside from that, I like to play the “hot hands” every week; those players who have placed in the Top-10 or higher in recent tournament weeks, whenever possible.
Will this strategy work? Or will I get shutout of the money again this week? Only time will tell.
