Before I dive into my Draftkings player selections for this tournament let’s review the Golf course the field will play and the key player statistics that I think are the most vital to a Golfer’s success at this week’s 2024 Black Desert Championship.

I wanted to emphasize that the purpose of this article is not to provide an exact DFS lineup.
Having stated that, this article will provide multiple player options in an effort to assist the reader in generating a unique lineup that will hopefully have the potential to win a DraftKings GPP (guaranteed prize pool) contest!
2024 Black Desert Championship Draftkings Picks
Seamus Power $10,300
Since the beginning of May, Seamus Power has played 12 tournaments on the PGA Tour. In those 12 events just mentioned, Power accumulated eight top 28 finishes, including a tenth-place result at the 2024 FedEx St. Jude Championship last month.
Seamus Power certainly checks the box for me when it comes to key player statistics. Let me be more specific. In relation to this week’s 2024 Black Desert Championship field, in the last 36 rounds played on the PGA Tour, Seamus Power ranks 14th in bogey avoidance, 19th in strokes gained putting, 17th in strokes gained tee to green, fifth in strokes gained on par fives, and second in total Draftkings points scored.
Lucas Glover $9,000
The 2009 United States Open winner arrives at this week’s event on the heels of two consecutive top 13 finishes on the PGA Tour, including a third-place result at last week’s 2024 Sanderson Farms Championship.
In relation to this week’s 2024 Black Desert Championship field, in the last eight rounds played on the PGA Tour, Lucas Glover ranks ninth in strokes gained tee to green, third in driving accuracy, seventh in strokes gained putting, first in strokes gained approach, fourth in birdie or better percentage, and second in total Draftkings points scored.
Patton Kizzire $7,700
The talented American has compiled three top eight finishes in his last five tournaments played on the PGA Tour, including a win at the 2024 Procore Championship three weeks ago.
Due to Kizzire’s impressive win at the Procore Championship, I decided to take a hard look at the player statistics for the tournament to see how Kizzire fared relative to the field.
Upon completion of four rounds of comPetitive Golf at the 2024 Procore Championship, Patton Kizzire ranked ninth in driving accuracy (55.4%), fourth in strokes gained tee to green (2.013), 15th in strokes gained approach (0.864), first in strokes gained putting (2.240), and sixth in strokes gained around the green (0.945).
