PGA DFS: Charles Schwab Challenge 2024
Course Breakdown
- Fort Worth, Texas
- Par 70
- 7,289 Yards
- Bermuda Fairways
- Bentgrass Greens
Colonial Country Club is renowned for its challenging layout, requiring precision and strategic shot-making. The course features narrow, tree-lined fairways and small, heavily bunkered greens. With over 80 bunkers and water hazards on six holes, accuracy is paramount. Distance off the tee is less of a factor here; instead, success hinges on precise approach shots and effective sand saves.
Weather conditions will vary, with thunderstorms and rain forecasted from Tuesday through Friday. Winds are expected to be around 10-15 mph, gusting into the 20s. These conditions will add an extra layer of difficulty, emphasizing the need for accuracy and adaptability.
Our projected winning score is -14, with a cut at +2. Previous winners, such as Emiliano Grillo and Sam Burns, demonstrate the importance of a strong approach game and consistent putting.
Stats to Build Around:
- SG Approach
- Approach from 200+ Yards
- Approach from 125-150 Yards
- Fairways in Regulation
- Greens in Regulation
- Opportunities Gained
- Bogey Avoidance
- SG Putting on Bentgrass
- Sand Save Percentage
PGA DFS Strategy
Focus on rostering well-rounded approach specialists who excel in putting. Given the course’s demands, our player pool will be larger this week to find leverage plays and avoid high rostership concentration.
