September 19, 2024 2:00 am EDT
This week, the DP World Tour presents golf fans with the 2024 BMW PGA 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 2024 BMW PGA Championship.
Where will the 2024 BMW PGA Championship be played?
The 2024 BMW PGA Championship will be played at the Wentworth Club in Virginia Water, Surrey, England. The Golf course is a par 73 that measures approximately 7,267 yards.
Ryan Fox won the 2023 BMW PGA Championship with a cumulative four round score of 18 under par.
Will the BMW PGA Championship have a traditional cut after two rounds?
The 2024 BMW PGA Championship will have a field of 144 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.
BMW PGA Championship Key Player Statistics
- Strokes Gained: Tee to Green
- Strokes Gained: Approach
- GIR (greens in regulation)
- Strokes Gained: Par Fives
- Bogey Avoidance
- Birdie or Better Percentage
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 BMW PGA Championship Draftkings Picks
Tommy Fleetwood $11,300
Tommy Fleetwood arrives at this week’s tournament on the heels of three consecutive top 22 finishes on the PGA Tour, including a fifth-place result at the 2024 BMW Championship last month.
In addition to his outstanding play on the PGA Tour, Tommy Fleetwood secured a silver medal at the 2024 Paris Olympic Golf six weeks ago. I think it is fair to say that Fleetwood is arriving at this week’s 2024 BMW PGA Championship in rather good form.
Joost Luiten $7,300
Joost Luiten has tallied three top 23 finishes in his last four tournaments played on the DP World Tour, including a sixth-place result at the 2024 Omega European Masters two weeks ago.
It should also be noted that Joost Luiten has played well at the Wentworth Club in the past. Luiten finished 14th at the 2023 BMW PGA Championship.
In my opinion, Luiten’s low Draftkings price of only $7,300 presents the best fantasy value of any Golfer on this week’s slate.
Richie Ramsay $6,800
Richie Ramsay has accumulated two top 22 finishes in his last four tournaments played on the DP World Tour, including an impressive third place finish at the 2024 Czech Masters four weeks ago.
Due to Richie Ramsay’s quality finish at the 2024 Czech 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 Czech Masters, in relation to the field, Richie Ramsay ranked seventh in driving accuracy (76.8%), third in GIR (greens in regulation-86.1%), seventh in strokes gained putting (1.66), and fifth in strokes gained approach (1.514).
Richie Ramsay has posted a quality result at this week’s DP World Tour event in the past. Ramsay finished sixth at the 2019 BMW PGA Championship.
Additional golfers I like to play well (Draftkings price noted): Shane Lowry $10,100: Rory McIlroy $12,400: Matt Fitzpatric $9,000: Aaron Rai $9,700: Adam Scott $9,900: Alexander Bjork $7,200: Adrian Otaegui $6,900.
