World Wide Technology Championship: Top PGA DFS Picks, Values, and Sleepers for Large-Field Tournaments on DraftKings

The PGA TOUR wraps up its two-week stay south of the border with the World Wide Technology Championship in Cabo San Lucas this week, the sixth event in the FedExCup Fall. This full-field event gives players a chance to improve their status for next season by moving up the FedExCup Fall Standings. Only this week’s tournament and two more events remain before the season concludes.

The tournament has been played at El Cardonal at Diamante, designed by Tiger Woods, since 2023, when it relocated from Riviera Maya, where it began in 2007. It has been a full PGA TOUR event in the fall portion of the schedule since 2013. For more information on this week’s field, format, and course, check out this First Look from RotoGrinders.

Especially in large-field tournaments, you’ll want to target players with lower ownership projections than their potential performance suggests. Finding high-leverage plays is critical for tournament success, so the picks here go against the grain, looking for under-owned options.

Usually, I rely heavily on the Strokes Gained Model in FantasyLabs, which is very predictive of results. I also tend to lean toward players who excel in Strokes Gained: Approach, which is more sustainable week to week than a hot putter.

Since these are tournament picks, we can accept more risk in exchange for getting a higher ceiling. High-risk, high-reward options with low ownership create the “boom-or-bust” style lineups that often lead to large-field success. To find guidance for all contest types, check out our full Daily Fantasy Golf coverage each week.

No matter what type of format you prefer, be sure to use the FantasyLabs PGA Models to help you make the best choices. These models use stats and simulations to highlight different players’ strengths and weaknesses. A few critical new stats for tournament play are Perfect% and SimLeverage, which are further explained here.

As you dig into the numbers, you can enjoy the many tools FantasyLabs offers, including the Lineup Optimizer, which effortlessly creates up to 300 lineups. Alternatively, you can use the Lineup Builder if you prefer a more hands-on approach.

Also available: our PGA DFS SimLabs Lineup Generator that creates advanced DFS lineups using the power of simulation.

Check out my top picks in each price range listed below.

Editor’s note: SimLeverage and Perfect% numbers may change after this piece is published. Be sure to check the PGA Models for any updates to the sims.

High-Priced PGA DFS Pick

Jackson Suber $9,200

For the FedExCup Fall, we’ll focus on just one pick in each price range and list a few more standout plays at the bottom of each section. This week, Jackson Suber has the highest Leverage Rating and the highest SimLeverage of the 10 golfers at $9,000 or more.

He has the sixth-highest Perfect% in the FantasyLabs sims, ahead of every lower-priced player and two higher-priced players. Overall, the models don’t point to a ton of high-priced leverage in this field, but Suber is one spot where it makes sense to pay up for some leverage.

Suber has had a very solid season, and the 27-year-old starts the week at No. 81 in the FedExCup Fall standings. In the next three weeks, he could surge into the top 60 to earn one of the spots in next year’s early Signature Events. He also needs to ensure he stays in the top 100 to earn fully exempt status. Last year, he came up short of the top 100 and earned conditional status.

He has had a much better season in 2026, though, posting six top-25 finishes in 23 PGA TOUR events. His best stretch included a pair of top-five finishes at THE CJ CUP Byron Nelson and the RBC Canadian Open. He also started fast at the Open Championship before fading to T28.

While he hasn’t been near the top of leaderboards lately, he has shown strong recent form with 13 made cuts in his 15 most recent PGA TOUR events. He finished T34 at the VidantaWorld Mexico Open last week. Over the last six months, he ranks third in the field in SG:T2G and SG:APP.

He has proven he can excel on low-scoring courses like the one the field will face this week and posted a T11 last year at the World Wide Technology Championship. With a nice blend of form and course history, Suber is a strong option as a centerpiece this week. His salary is barely over $9,000, making him easy to build around alongside another star or as part of a fully balanced lineup.

Other High-Priced Picks from the Model: Ben Griffin ($10,000), Blades Brown ($9,500)
