Conditions are ideal down in the ‘Sip’ for what should be a beautiful weekend of golf. Low winds and pure, unfiltered sunshine should create ideal scoring conditions at a track that has seen winning scores of 18-under or better in four of the last five events.

Patton Kizzire -126 ($7300) vs. Rickie Fowler +104 ($7700)

We’re honing in on a big (d*** Rick) discrepancy in the $7k range where Patton Kizzire is a heavy favorite in a four-round matchup over Rickie Fowler despite the latter’s more expensive DraftKings DFS price.

This is partly down to Rickie’s total lack of experience at CC of Jackson as he’s making his first career start at this event. Kizzire on the other hand is a lifelong mule who is making his 10th appearance in this Fall staple.

Both of these guys are flying under the radar this week in terms of DFS ownership. According to our Nut Hut ownership projections available in the Discord, both Kizzire and Fowler are around 5-7% owned.

Over/Unders for the Sanderson Farms Championship

On a course that’s long but very forgiving off the tee, I’m backing a couple of heavy hitters to beat a pretty generous total of -2.5 in round one.

Hoffman has shot 3-under or better in eight of his last 14 rounds at CC of Jackson, and Fishburn has been on a heater going back to July with top 15 finishes in four of his last five starts.

Last time, I gave out an additional college football play that hit (thank you SJSU), so I figured, why not keep it going… and come back to the Spartans of San Jose State. This team is undefeated ATS on the year and laying a short 6.5 at home against Nevada. Go ahead and grab it before it crosses the key 7 point number.
