With the 2023 PGA Travelers Championship next up, it’s time to start strategizing for the next big showdown at the stunning TPC River Highlands. This course, with its rich history and challenging layout, is a player and fan favorite, promising high-octane golf action week in, week out.
DFSUpNorth challenges conventional wisdom each week in an effort to bring DFS Army members the picks and strategy needed to exploit the common fantasy golf player on Draftkings or Fanduel.
Historically, TPC River Highlands has rewarded aggressive play. It has one of the lowest scoring averages on tour, so we want to target aggressive players who will capitalize on birdie opportunities. Past champions like Dustin Johnson, Bubba Watson, and Jordan Spieth have shown the value of being bold on this course.
