Rickie Fowler used a chip-in birdie on the par-4 17th hole to help him stave off Rory McIlroy, and a host of other contenders Sunday, to win the Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship at 16-under par.What a difference a year makes. At the end of January last year, Fowler, 27, was met
Sammy Watkins Jersey with heavy criticism for only having one win on the two major tours. But that's all changed. With this win, Fowler has now won five tournaments on either the PGA or European Tour, including four since May.MORE: This one didn't come easily. After waiting through endle s fog delays that cut both the second and third rounds short, Fowler came out Sunday morning to finish his third round and take a two-shot lead.His fourth round started shortly after,
NFL Kansas City Chiefs Jersey and he continued his fine play by birdieing the first two holes. Fowler carded a nasty double-bogey on the par-3 seventh, but bounced right back with an eagle on the eighth.There were some nervy moments on the back nine, however. McIlroy made four birdies and an eagle on the inward nine to pre s Fowler. McIlroy ultimately finished in a tie for third at 14 under with Henrik Stenson.Finishing just one shot behind Fowler was Belgian-born Thomas Pieters. The 23-year-old is one of the best young talents on the
Joe Montana Jersey European Tour after winning twice last season. Pieters shot a bogey-free 5-under 67 in the final round, but came up one shot short of a playoff when Fowler chipped in on 17.Fowler, who will likely move up to fourth in the world rankings when they come out on Monday, was ecstatic with the win."This was a big one," Fowler

It's nice to come out on top this week."With all the excitement surrounding Fowler, Pieters and McIlroy, it's easy
Darwin Thompson Jersey to forget that world No. 1 Jordan Spieth was also in the field. Spieth, who had struggled in Round 2, finished strong on Sunday, birdieing four of his last six holes to get into a tie for fifth at 11 under.

After one of the most popular weeks for PGA DFScontests, the Travelers Championship provides an excellent opportunity to target elite golfers who underperformed at the U.S. Open.
Martin Havlat Jersey This weeks GPPs will collect spillover entries from le s experienced daily fantasy golf players that started or just resumed playing during last weeks major.Recency bias has a stronger impact on newer players. The optimal way to leverage this is by targeting premier golfers who flopped and burnt those who bought in on them at the U.S. Open, as the best long-term players are always the likeliest to bounce back with the most authority.MOREROTOQL:Lineup Builder|*If you are interested in taking your DFS golf lineup building strategy to the next level, you should consider using a lineup optimizer, and . Travelers Championship picksand PGA DFS strategyTarget GolfersJordan Spieth didnt mi s the cut last week, but he completely disappeared down the stretch after a relatively promising first couple of days. It seemed Spieth was finally turning his season around with three straight top-10 finishes coming into the U.S. Open, but he couldnt keep his momentum and certainly didnt help out anybody who rostered him at a premium. What Spieth continues to po se s, though, despite his struggles over the past twoseasons, is a level of talent that is arguably unmatched. The recent top-10 finishes show that regardle s of last weeks disappointment, Spieth is finding his stride once again. I expect Spieth to be far overlooked compared to the likes of other top options Brooks Koepka and Patrick Cantlay, which may be a
Erik Gustafsson Jersey mistake. Spieth is of similar caliber and priced cheaper, and what you sacrifice in form I believe you more than make up for in leverage. It doesnt hurt that Spieth won here in 2017 either. Buy in before Spieth finally gets all aspects of his game clicking.Continuing to make his way back from a wrist injury, Justin Thomas mi sed the cut last week. Thomas was a popular option as one of the lower-priced elite golfers at the U.S. Open, but he ended up burning lineups that included him. Since his return, Thomas has mi sed two of threecuts. I expect this to scare off DFS players who may sense that something could still be wrong with his wrist. Instead of gue sing about the status of his injury, however, I would rather leverage
Jonathan Toews Jersey his low ownership. Thomas is one of the premier golfers on tour, and the bad recent results may simply be explained by him knocking off some rust. As far as I am concerned, Thomas will be fully himself this
Corey Crawford Jersey week, and I expect him to be le s coveted than similarly priced golfers like Jason Day and Paul Casey. On top of low ownership, Thomas is being discounted due to the recent mi sed cuts. Leverage the recent injury and last weeks mi sed cut for a double discount on both ownership and price.Tony Finau has endured a very uncharacteristic slump recentlywith mi sed cuts in his past two tournaments and fishes of T60th or worse in three of the five tournaments before that. I might be more concerned if not for a solo second-play finish at the Charles Schwab Challenge and a T5th at the Masters smack dab in the middle of the bad results. Finau is most likely just fine and has proven incrediblyconsistent outside of this minislump. His price has been heavily discounted, and yet I expect him to receive much lower ownership than he normally does this week. While many expect TPC River Highlands to favor shorter hitters, which certainly doesnt describe Finau, he has never finished worse than 25th at this event. In fact, Bubba Watson, another golfer who is generally thought of more for his distance than fine se, has won here twice. With many DFS players recently having soured on Finau and looking to pay up for several studs above his price level, he may fly completely under the radar. Rarely do you get the opportunity to roster such an electrifying golfer at such low ownership.Aaron White graduated from Northwestern University with a B.A. in Economics.
