Weather This would mark our first official “obvious” wave edge of the Fall swing, but it certainly does not come without risk. A simple glance at the weather displays that PM/AM should be significantly advantaged, as Thursday AM looks borderline unplayable. I have made multiple swaps in my pool to get more exposure to the PM/AM wave, and currently 65% of my pool (13/20) are in the PM/AM wave. The only reason that I would not place more emphasis on the PM/AM wave are a number

The DP World Tour concludes their season this week with the Tour Championship held at long-time host, The Earth Course at Jumeirah Estates. The top 50 in the race to Dubai have qualified, but unlike the FedEx Cup there are no end of season gimmicks such as a points reset or starting strokes. This means that with a lead of 767 points, Rory McIlroy will most likely be the DPWT winner for the fourth time in a row. Marco Penge is the main threat and could cap a brilliant breakthr

The Butterfield Bermuda Championship is a relatively new addition to the Fall swing, debuting in October 2019 and held at Port Royal Golf Course for the past six years. Originally constructed to be an alternate event opposite the WGC – HSBC Championship, the tournament was elevated in 2021 to a standalone event as the result of successive cancellations of the WGC due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In my opinion, it holds a strong case as the overall weakest tournament on the entir

Weather Nothing to see here. Expect standard scoring conditions, probably in the -2.5 to -3 range, with a winning score of -23 to -25. No wave advantage worth pursuing.   Core   Ben Griffin, $10,500: I know that Ben Griffin is the highest owned and highest priced player on the slate, which has been a death sentence during the Fall swing, but that changes this week. Griffin is the best player in this field by a healthy margin, and he compares quite favorably to a J.J. Spaun bo

This week we are at El Cardonal in Cabo San Lucas. It should be an absolute scoring bonanza. I will discuss what to do at the top and I will attempt to pick out some spots where I see ownership gravitating toward or some candidates that I would expect to gain popularity as the day progresses. These are the weeks where many are playing what is optimal and moving on. I would caution against that in a putting contest personally, but I am famously wrong all the time. At the end y

The PGA Tour may be the preeminent golf tour, but the DPWT has always had a certain charm to me. Being more worldwide, it has had a wider variety of both courses and players. And now in its role as a proxy feeder tour, it’s where a lot of promising younger players are trying to make that next jump. With ISN being a predominantly American focused company, I thought it would be good to have at least some focus on the wider golf world, both to spotlight these future PGA tour pla

The PGA Tour heads to Cabo this week for a resort-style contest at El Cardonal at Diamonte Dunes. While this event has previously been hosted at the Mayakoba resort, I would not really spend any time looking at prior course history there, as El Cardonal plays in stark architectural contrast to the Greg Norman design. Mayakoba was one of the tightest, most accuracy-over-distance-biased golf courses on the PGA Tour, while El Cardonal is the complete opposite, featuring some of

I suppose you could make a case here for AM/PM based on the brief two-hour stretch of winds on Thursday afternoon, but I wouldn’t make any key decisions based on that two hour window. The scoring should fall similarly to last year, and I would not be surprised if we saw close to a 24-under winner on a soft-ish resort course, although the mornings will be on the colder side. Scoring Average Prediction: -2.0 Winning Score: -24   Core Michael Thorbjornsen, $10,000: While I could

Whatever type of content I put together weekly in addition to the monday show is still free flowing and does not have a completely decided on format. For this week I will stick with written content that is a little abbreviated. The hope is that potentially some of my annotation bullet points can be added to the insider sheet, but for now I’ll go with this. As always, member feedback is appreciated, positive or negative (I am a big boy I can handle it). Today I will break down

The Bank of Utah Championship (known last year as the Black Desert Championship) is only in its second 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 most unique settings for professional golf. We can nitpick th

The Slate This evening we get the Bengals hosting the Steelers. The spread is Steelers -4.5 and the total is 44.5. The injury report for the Steelers: Calvin Austin and Miles Killebrew (S) are out and Malik Harrison (OLB) and DeShon Elliott (S) are questionable. The injury report for the Bengals: Tanner Hudson and Mike Gesicki are out leaving the tight end room thin and Charlie Jones (WR), Lucas Patrick (G) and Trey Hendrickson are questionable. I plan to make this a little b
