“I thought we were going to be together forever. Then… about a week later, right out of the blue, she sends me a John Deere letter.” – Harry Dunne, Dumb & Dumber
Greenbrier finishes
Our Greenbrier Top 25 rankings faired very well once again. Xander Schauffele picked up his first every PGA Tour win after dominating the Web.com Tour last season. X to the Z (minus the Z) was ranked 15th in last week’s rankings. Including Schauffele, we had 9 players finish in 20th place or better.

John Deere Classic | Fantasy Golf Rankings
The John Deere Classic fantasy golf rankings are provided by @Sgrignoli3 – PAS contributor and statistician. The rankings are derived from year-to-date player statistics extracted from PGATour.com. The weighted stats for this event can be found below the rankings. Player salaries are based off of DraftKings.com. The right end column has a variance between DraftKings salaries and Vegas odds found on RotoGrinders.com.
**Disclaimer: PGATour.com is used as source for all player statistics. Stats are extracted on Mondays of tournament week and calculated for rankings by our statistical expert. If there happens to be a numerical error, blame them not us. Also, European Tour statistics are NOT included in the rankings calculations.
The top weighted player statistics for the John Deere Classic include:
- Strokes Gained: Approach = 25%
- Birdie or Better % = 25%
- Strokes Gained: Off the Tee = 15%
- Strokes Gained: Putting = 15%
- Ball Striking = 10%
- Proximity = 10%
According to the model, Robert Garrigus, Michael Kim and Boo Weekley are the best valued DraftKings plays in our top 25 this week when compared to Vegas odds.
**Note: I will be on vacation next week for the British Open Championship. Our rankings will return the following week for the RBC Canadian Open.
