2024 Genesis Championship
October 23, 2024 6:10 pm EDT

This week, the DP World Tour presents Golf fans with the 2024 Genesis Championship. Let’s take a look at this week’s event from a Draftkings perspective.

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 Genesis Championship.

Where will the Genesis Championship be played?

The 2024 Genesis Championship will be played at the Jack Nicklaus Golf Club in Incheon, South Korea. The golf course is a par 72 that measures approximately 7,470 yards.

Will the Genesis Championship have a traditional cut after two rounds?

The 2024 Genesis Championship will have a field of 128 comPetitors to start the tournament on Thursday. This event will have a cut after the completion of the first two rounds. The top 65 Golfers and ties will make the cut.

Genesis Championship Key Player Statistics

  • Strokes Gained: Ball Striking
  • Strokes Gained: Around the Green
  • GIR (greens in regulation)
  • Strokes Gained: Par Fives
  • Bogey Avoidance
  • Strokes Gained: Putting

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 Genesis Championship Draftkings Picks

Guido Migliozzi $9,900

The talented Italian has compiled two top 18 finishes in his last four events played on the DP World Tour, including an eighth-place result at the 2024 FedEx Open de France two weeks ago.

Yannik Paul $9,700

Yannik Paul has tallied four top 24 finishes in his last five tournaments played on the DP World Tour, including a 19th place result at the 2024 Alfred Dunhill Links Championship three weeks ago.

Johannes Veerman $9,500

The talented American arrives at this week’s DP World Tour event on the heels of two consecutive top 14 finishes, including an eighth-place result at the 2024 FedEx Open de France earlier this month.

I fully expect Johannes Veerman to continue his outstanding play at this week’s 2024 Genesis Championship.

Joost Luiten $9,300

Joost Luiten has accumulated three top 23 finishes in his last seven tournaments played on the DP World Tour, including an impressive sixth place finish at the 2024 Omega European Masters last month.

Joost Luiten also checks the box for me when it comes to key player statistics. Luiten is currently ranked 18th in driving accuracy (61.06%), 14th in GIR (greens in regulation-70.37%), and 19th in par five scoring (4.51) on the DP World Tour.

Richie Ramsay $8,000

Richie Ramsay has tallied two top 22 finishes in his last three tournaments played on the DP World Tour, including a 20th place finish at last week’s 2024 Andalucia Masters.

Due to Richie Ramsay’s quality finish at the 2024 Andalucia Masters I decided to take a hard look at the relevant player statistics for the tournament to see how Ramsay fared relative to the field.

Upon the completion of four rounds of comPetitive play at the 2024 Andalucia Masters, in relation to the field, Richie Ramsay ranked third in driving accuracy (69.6%), second in strokes gained putting (1.839), 20th in bogey avoidance (2), and 20th in scoring average (69.50).

Additional golfers I like to play well (Draftkings price noted): Sang Hyun Park $7,500: Jeong Weon Ko $7,100: Rikuya Hoshino $8,900: Antoine Rozner $9,200: Adrien Saddier $8,300: Aaron Cockerill $8,200: Mattias Schwab $7,000: Scott Jamieson $7,900.
