Friday's DraftKings golf slate covers round 3 on the $50,000 classic salary cap. The Golf @ Golf matchup is the only game on the board, and it locks at 10:15 p.m. ET (7:15 p.m. PT).
Eugenio Lopez-Chacarra is the clear top end of our model's rankings. At $10,200 he carries a ceiling of 96.3 and a DraftKings average of 78.7, both the highest on the list. Gregorio De Leo is the next name to know at $7,500, with a ceiling of 84.9 and a DraftKings average of 69.9. That ceiling sits well above anyone priced near him, which is why our model builds around him.
The mid-range is where the pricing gets interesting. Joe Dean at $7,800 shows a 79.5 ceiling and a 64.9 average. Calum Hill at $7,100 has a 76.4 ceiling, and Jeff Winther at $7,300 comes in at 75.3. Each one gives you real upside without eating into the top end of your budget.
For value, our model points to the cheaper end of the board. Shaun Norris at $6,600 has a 70.0 ceiling and a 63.7 DraftKings average, a strong floor for the price. Guido Migliozzi at $6,900 offers a 67.6 ceiling, and Julien Guerrier at $6,400 offers a 63.2 ceiling with a 54.0 average. These are the salary-savers that let you pay up elsewhere.
Our model's top lineup spends $49,800 of the $50,000 cap. It starts with Lopez-Chacarra at $10,200, adds Victor Perez at $8,800, Bernd Wiesberger at $8,500 and Oliver Lindell at $8,000, then rounds out the build with De Leo at $7,500 and Hennie Du Plessis at $6,800. Get your lineups set before the 10:15 p.m. ET lock.
