DraftKings Golf Lineup Picks: PGA's Valspar Championship
Matt Kuchar
Trying to find your optimal DraftKings lineup for this week's (March 9-12) golf tournament: the Valspar Championship at the Innisbrook Resort (Copperhead), in Palm Harbor, Fla.? Our fantasy golf experts are ready to help.
Here's what our optimal lineup looks like.
Matt Kuchar ($10,200)
The No. 20 player in the world, Kooch is having a nondescript season thus far, but he can string together top 10s at a moment's notice. His Masters tune-up starts this week.
Bill Haas ($9,200)
Last year's Valspar runner-up (he lost in a playoff to Charl Schwartzel), Haas had a streak of six straight top-20 Tour finishes snapped at the WGC-Mexico (T-32).

Gary Woodland ($8,900)
A past champion here (2011), Woodland has snuck up to 34th in the world on the strength of a solid stretch of under-the-radar golf that includes six top-10 finishes in his last 13 starts.
Jason Dufner ($7,900)
Duf has posted top-25 finishes in his last three starts, and he has a solid record at the Valspar — no finish worse than T-28 in his last eight starts.
Jim Furyk ($7,200)
This week's designated horse for the course is Furyk, who has a win, three top 10s and no missed cuts in his last seven Valspar appearances. He's overdue for a good week.
Ben Crane ($6,500)
Crane is having a weird year — he's 17th on Tour in first-round scoring average (68.7) but plummets to 162nd in round 2 (71.3). One of these weeks, he'll string four good rounds together.
