Wednesday's DP World Tour slate is a one-event, $50,000 salary cap classic, with six golfers filling each lineup. Lock comes Wed 11/4 at 10:19 p.m. ET (7:19 p.m. PT), so there is plenty of time to work through the pool.
At the top, our model's ranking starts with Rory McIlroy at $12,000. He carries the highest ceiling among the top plays at 119.2 and a DraftKings average of 82.6, the best average on the board. Tommy Fleetwood costs $11,500 with a ceiling of 113.8 and an average of 75.0, while Jon Rahm at $11,000 averages 71.0 but tops out at 91.7, a lower ceiling than most of the names around him.
The mid-range is where our model finds its strongest ceilings per dollar. Eugenio Lopez-Chacarra at $10,000 has a 117.7 ceiling and a 78.7 average, the second-best average on the list. Adam Scott at $10,200 averages 75.6, though his 98.8 ceiling is modest for the price.
For value, look at the $9,600 and under group. Daniel Hillier at $9,600 shows a 116.1 ceiling and a 70.0 average. Kristoffer Reitan at $9,000 pairs a 114.0 ceiling with a 69.2 average. Jacob Skov Olesen at $8,900 may be the pick of the three, with a 117.9 ceiling, the second-highest in the top plays, and a 73.4 average.
The fact sheet gives no ownership figures, so we can't say where the crowd will land.
Our model's top lineup uses $49,100 of the $50,000 cap. It pairs Lopez-Chacarra at $10,000 and Skov Olesen at $8,900 with Oliver Lindell at $8,300, Bernd Wiesberger at $7,800, Gregorio De Leo at $7,500 and Marcus Armitage at $6,600, and it skips the top-priced stars entirely.
