The wind is fairly mild the first two days, with gusts only hitting 10 mph. These are fairly perfect scoring conditions that resemble what we saw at this event on Friday and Sunday. Per Steve, I

Yokohama Country Club was founded in 1960 and over the next six years, Japanese architect Takeo Aiyama built both the East and West Course. The West course hosted the 1978 Japan Open, won by none other than Seve Ballesteros, and the 2018 edition of the same event was held on the same composite course that we will see this week. In 2018, Yuki Inamori won by two strokes over Shaun Norris at 14-under par. For what it’s worth, Yuki is an absolute accuracy merchant. And last year,

Course Introduction With just 3 events left for players to keep their tour card before the playoffs start, the DPWT has their last European event of the season for the Open de España. We are back at Club de Campo Villa de Madrid which has hosted each of the last five years as well as 2019. Club de Campo is a 7,154 yard par 71 with only three par 5's and four par 3's. It is a tree-lined parkland course with narrow fairways, small bentgrass greens and elevation changes (in part

Black Desert Resort, home of the 2026 Bank of Utah Championship. The Bank of Utah Championship (known previously as the Black Desert Championship) is only in its third renewal, and I must say that it has been a welcome addition to the Fall swing. Despite the new sponsor and name change, the event will return to the Black Desert Resort, designed by Tom Weiskopf and Phil Smith in 2022-2023. This was Weiskopf’s final design before he passed away, and the track sits among one of

The iconic Swilcan Bridge at St. Andrews, which along with Carnoustie and Kingsbarns hosts the 2026 Alfred Dunhill Links Championship. Starting in 2001, The Alfred Dunhill Links Championship is a pro-am event contested over three courses in the same format as the old version of the Pebble Beach Pro-Am. There is a three course rotation with the Old course at St. Andrews, Carnoustie and Kingsbarns in Scotland, before a cut with the final round returning to the Old course. The t

This week kicks off one of the more unique events in golf -- the Presidents Cup, a four-day tournament that offers a format that differs significantly from your traditional golf event. For DFS purposes, this offers a completely new strategy, and if you're looking for an edge this week, taking advantage of a format that not all are entirely familiar with is a good start. To start, let's look at the format of the Presidents Cup, which differs from the Ryder Cup in that it takes

RELATED: Medinah No. 3 Preview | Matchup Predictor | Interactive Model I was pretty successful attempting something pretty unique last time we had a captain mode slate for golf at last year’s Ryder Cup slate. I ended up playing a contest last fall where I ended up shipping the contest, but also coming in second, fourth and sixth. It’s one of the most successful slates I’ve ever had from a “covering the top 10” perspective. I attribute that success to looking for a completely

Le Golf National, the host of the 2026 Open de France Course Introduction The Open de France returns to its long-time home at Le Golf National, after a one year hiatus due to renovations related to a new rail line built along the old 4th hole. In addition to hosting every other French Open since 2002 (2020 and 2021 were canceled due to Covid), Le Golf National also hosted the 2018 Ryder Cup and 2024 Olympics. It is a 7,365 yard (an increase of just over 100 yards since last t

Course Introduction The BMW PGA Championship is the biggest standalone DPWT event and has another great field headlined by Rory McIlroy, Jon Rahm, Tommy Fleetwood, Matt Fitzpatrick and Ludvig Aberg. The Wentworth Club in England has been the host for over forty years and is a 7,267 yard par 72 that has three par 5’s on the inward nine of 37, including back-to-back par 5’s to finish. Wentworth is a tree-lined parkland course with small bentgrass greens and plays as a point-to-

After a two-week absence from PGA Tour golf, we are back with the first event of the Fall swing, the debut edition of the Biltmore Championship. The event will be held at the Walnut Cove golf course at the Biltmore resort, designed by Jack Nicklaus in 2005. While I have never been to the Biltmore, I remember it clearly as the place where Duke students would get away with their parents or significant others for a nice weekend in the mountains. It’s certainly a beautiful area o

Trump International Links Doonbeg. The Irish Open has been mostly held at parkland courses recently but is back at a links course this year with a great field headlined by Rory McIlroy and Jon Rahm. Trump International Links Doonbeg is the host for the first time, and is a newer links course designed by Greg Norman and opened in 2002. It is a short 6,838 par 70, with five par 3’s and three par 5’s (and a further two par 5’s that are playing as par 4’s this week). The routing

Matt Damon in The Odyssey. I have had a gestating idea on how to talk about one of the best big screen experiences I have had this year and inspiration struck me recently. Christopher Nolan is one of my favorite filmmakers that is still currently working and he has been for a very long time. I admire every one of his films greatly. Yes, even The Dark Knight Rises, Insomnia, and Tenet. What can I say? He’s a divisive guy, but he always has a take when he makes something. That

Course Introduction With the FedExCup over the spotlight falls on the DPWT and one of its signature events, the European Masters at Crans-sur-Sierre Golf Club set against the beautiful backdrop of the Swiss alps. An ever-present staple of the DPWT, Crans has managed to hold up despite being only 6,830 yards and playing even shorter due to being at 5,000 feet of altitude which has about a 6% impact on distance. Crans is a par 70 with three par 5’s and five par 3’s and is a ver

Course Introduction

So we’ve made it to the final event of the season, and this will be the second year that the new look East Lake will not feature starting strokes– thus, the 30th ranked player in the field is starting at zero, just like Scottie Scheffler. While I think that the no starting strokes makes this a better golf tournament, I don’t think that the current playoff format makes the first and second rounds matter close to enough. Now that the FedEx St. Jude’s and BMW Championship featur
