Dan's Dosage: Sony Open 2024 Key Stats and DFS Picks

Hello everyone! Welcome to my first post on my brand new site, Dan's Dosage where I will be bringing you weekly content during the PGA season along with daily content for MLB season once it starts back up in the Spring. Little bit about me, I am an avid DFS player and have been for the past 10 years or so and have made money and made memories in doing so. I have been a content creator in the past, but got away from it for a minute. I am back and ready for this PGA season though and am ready to help others win and have fun too! Let's get into this week's tournament, the Sony Open.

Key Stats

This week we are heading to Waialae CC where golfers will be seeing a completely different type of Hawaii golf course. This week, driving accuracy will be one of the top stats that I will be looking at along with Birdie or Better Percentage and golfers who excel in the putting department. With that being said, let's look at a couple of golfers in these price ranges on Draftkings and see who we can play

My DFS Picks

Ludvig Aberg ($10,500)

Aberg is someone who bursted onto the scene last year and showcased his skills rather quickly. He is someone who excels off the tee and should be someone that we make sure that we target in your lineups. Granted, he had a rather poor showing last week, but I truly see him being able to really bounce back here this week.

Corey Conners ($9,800)

Conners is someone who has done well here year after year. He strikes the ball extremely well as he is known for his ball striking and being a poor putter. However, something about this place and the greens here really changes his game as he has gained strokes putting here 4 out of his last 5 visits. Fire him up with confidence this week.

Russell Henley ($9,600)

Henley is another person who has had some pretty good success here. His last three finishes are T32, 2nd, and T11. He is a very accurate driver as he hits over 70% of his fairways and has shown flashes from time to time as he has finished inside inside the top 15 in 5 of his last 6 tournaments. It will be difficult to fit in all three of these guys, so I would recommend mixing them as you can to help build some different lineups.

Stephan Jaeger ($8,100)

Jaeger is someone who you should play when he is priced down to the point he is at this week. There was a streak towards the end of the season where he was being priced over $10,000 and that is way too high as he hasn't shown that great of upside for multiples weeks. While he may not be the most accurate driver, he has shown consistency in his scoring and placements. He won't be winning the tournament this week, but he should be a lock for a Top 25 finish.

Keith Mitchell ($7,500)

Killa Keith is someone who is nice and long off the tee and also hits it pretty accurately as well. He has some strong history here at Waialae with 3 T16 or better finishes in his last 5 visits. You should feel comfortable firing him up this week, especially at this depressed price tag.

That will be it from me for this week everyone! I hope you enjoyed this read for this week and I am looking forward to keeping the content coming as the season progresses!
