Not necessarily. Your squad looks OK. Multiple schools of thought on how to pick your team. You don't have anyone drafted by more than 12% of all players, so all you need is a couple of strong performances and you'll be fine. Your only guy on the course right now is the leader and he's a 6% draft.
Yes. Fantasy sports gambling is legal just not sports gambling in Kentucky.
Playing Koepka would have been a pretty contrarian move. He’s been awful lately. With that said playing top players in bad form is one of my favorite strategies when trying to gain leverage over the field in contests that allow multiple lineups. The great players can pop at anytime. I’m playing in a high stakes contest with 900 entries and Koepka is only owned by like 6.5% of the field. I have 8 lineups and placed him in 50% of my lineups. I mixed him with higher owned players like Rahm, Thomas, Cantlay and Xander. It’s an easy and best way to differentiate yourself in a field especially when you don’t want to fade either of the top owned players.
So I don’t think you should beat yourself up for not taking Koepka in a single lineup field. I think the right play is to take some chalk and mix in someone who isn’t expected to be owned highly. Our league is a bit different because I can never predict who will be owned highly.
Hope your enjoying this so far?
I was there on Wednesday for the pro-am. Going again tomorrow for final round. 16th is the only way to go. 20,000 in corporate suites, open bar, open buffet with terrific food. Bartenders are outstanding. People watching is unreal. The golf is pretty good too.
He was still listed this morning on the daily, single round games and I didn't see a designation on him. Maybe I wasn't paying much attention.
So how was your overall experience? Did you watch golf more, less or the same? You down for more contests?
Hey boys, I went ahead and created the contest for the Genesis Open. Apparently I'm a bit rusty. I made a duplicate contest. Make sure you enter the contest that has my name entered. Thank you @hookyIU1990 for keeping these going when I just didn't give a shit. This is a pretty stacked tournament this week with many of the top players. Should make for lots of interesting lineups.

@#%$ it. I'm ready for it to be Thursday. This is proof of how badly I want Wednesday behind me.
Looks like 3 of us had him in our lineups. I got the notification at 9:31 that he wasn't playing and didn't see it until after the 9:40 lock. Whoever is getting my $5 this week, you're welcome.

I want to thank Harry Higgs for my victory last week. He shot 5 under Friday on the back nine with two eagles (one was a chip in from the sand on 17) to make the cut on the number.

Nieman was lights out too! I strategically liked my approach fading the top 5 salaries. I tend to do this on stacked fields as the middle salaries are such strong players.
Almost worked out, just didn’t go heavy enough with the right mid tier salaries.
Wish I would have. Already had a dude who was +7 through 5
Pffft I dropped $9100 on one player that's +17 all by himself. Another guy is +7. Wish I could cash that lineup out right now.
You picked the wrong foreigners. Lowry is my favorite player from over the pond. I wanna hang with him and his caddy after a win.
