The PGA Tour event this week is the RSM Classic. The daily fantasy sites have posted their salaries and the betting market odds are available, so it’s time to show some comparisons between salaries on FanDuel and DraftKings and also between the salaries on these two daily fantasy sites and the betting market odds (taken from mybookie.com) to win the tournament.
The first dashboard shows the percentage of cap for FanDuel vs. DraftKings Salaries. Those above the trend line are relatively more expensive on DraftKings, while those below the trend line are relatively more expensive on FanDuel.
The second dashboard illustrates the top golfers in terms of betting market odds compared to daily fantasy salaries for the tournament. The betting market odds (10-1, 20-1, etc.) are on the vertical axis while the salaries of the golfers in the respective games (FanDuel on top; DraftKings on bottom) are on the horizontal axis. A simple linear trend is shown for each. Golfers above (to the right) of the line have higher fantasy salaries than the implied betting market odds, while golfers below (to the left) the line have lower fantasy salaries than the implied betting market odds (from the simple linear trend in this sample). Webb Simpson and Tyrrell Hatton appear to offer value on both sites. Sungjae Im, Matthew Fitzpatrick, and Jason Kokrak appear to offer value on FanDuel, while Jason Day and Louis Oosthuizen appear to offer value on DraftKings.
Enjoy this weekend’s golf and best of luck with your lineups!
