Summertime presents numerous opportunities for all walks of PGA TOUR membership. As some rank-and-filers moonlight on the Web.com Tour and others even deeper in the trenches break into fields on the PGA TOUR Champions, the movement for playing time in standard TOUR stops can be dizzying. This is one of the reasons why I always tweet all field changes. Even if you already know that you don't have to register for Twitter to read my page (like any website), you may not know that all of my tweets that aren't replies to others appear on the FANTASY page at PGATOUR.com. The format of my TWITTERFEED truncates for length, but you can view entire messages by clicking on my avatar, the left arrow or the heart. I almost always tweet the updated Qualifiers , but that page will be appointment reading next week. At the conclusion of this week's RBC Canadian Open, the top 70 on the year-long special money list will earn exemptions into the PGA Championship. To complete the field of 156 at Bellerive Country Club on Aug. 9-12, the PGA of America then will use a combination of the golfers outside the top 70 with those outside the top 100 (traditionally) in the Official World Golf Ranking. This is why the field is annually considered the deepest in professional golf. Whichever resource(s) you choose to use, you're covered. PGA TOUR Fantasy Golf presented by SERVPRO My roster for the RBC Canadian Open (in alphabetical order): Tony Finau Charley Hoffman Dustin Johnson Brooks Koepka Matt Kuchar Joaquin Niemann You’ll find my starters in Expert Picks. Others to consider for each category (in alphabetical order): Scoring: Tommy Fleetwood; Martin Laird; Keith Mitchell; J.J. Spaun; Jimmy Walker Driving: Keegan Bradley; Joel Dahmen; Tommy Fleetwood; Billy Horschel; Martin Laird; Keith Mitchell; Sam Ryder; J.J. Spaun; Gary Woodland Approach: Keegan Bradley; Stewart Cink; Joel Dahmen; Chris Kirk; Chez Reavie; Sam Ryder; J.J. Spaun; Steve Stricker Short: Billy Horschel; Kevin Kisner; Martin Laird; Brandt Snedeker; Jimmy Walker Power Rankings Wild Card Billy Horschel … Loyal readers understand how this pick can oscillate between something of a sleeper to an up-and-comer to a talent who should be in the Power Rankings but has been demoted. It's also served the role as an extension of the Monday column. That's where the co-runner-up at the Barbasol Championship fits in. Notoriously streaky, our confidence should remain high given he finished T17 at the Quicken Loans National in his previous start. The T2 at Keene Trace wasn't unexpected inasmuch as it didn't align with his usual preference for tough tracks. From strokes gained: off-the-tee (16th), greens in regulation (34th) and par-5 scoring (T14), he checks every box that projects success at Glen Abbey, and he's 23rd in strokes gained: putting for good measure. Draws Chez Reavie … Celebrating the 10th anniversary of his breakthrough title at Glen Abbey this week. It's rolled around at a great time because he needs a reversal of fortune as he arrives on an 0-for-4 skid. He's survived the cut in the last four editions of the RBC Canadian Open at Glen Abbey, posting top 25s in the last two. The success and experience here should lay the foundation for confidence to let his skill as a sharpshooter to shine once again. Stewart Cink ... Still lacing it tee to green. He followed consecutive top fives with consecutive top 25s, including a T24 at Carnoustie. Tied for fifth at Glen Abbey in 2015 and makes his fourth straight visit. Adam Hadwin … At 55th in the Official World Golf Ranking, he's tops among Canadians, but that still represents a mild slide in recent months. He's overcome below-average putting compared to his reputation. Still, as one of the most reliable to make any cut and with experience and some success at Glen Abbey (a T7 in 2015 most notably), he's a safe own no matter your format. Ben Silverman … The rookie from Canada is getting his first look at Glen Abbey in competition, but he carries the buoying effects of a T12 at the Barbasol with him. Going to come cheap in DFS, so give him a chance. Jimmy Walker … I'm buying for at least one more week, but he's probably overvalued in DFS. No stranger to Glen Abbey having placed T14 in his last visit in 2016 and still among the better scorers on TOUR. Gary Woodland … Glen Abbey is the kind of yard where Gary can get his groove back. Since his playoff victory at TPC Scottsdale in early February, he's connected for only one top 25 (T23, Memorial). After a similarly quiet lead-in to last year's RBC Canadian Open due in part to a personally challenging few months, he rose to a fourth-place finish. J.J. Spaun … It's impossible for gamers in particular not to love how he plays the game and how he carries himself. His profile as an attack artist is ideal for Glen Abbey. Only short-sighted course history buffs who can't look away from a pedestrian 1-for-2 record (with a T41 in 2015) will ignore that he's still a talent on the rise. Slot him into your DFS lineup without hesitation. Steve Stricker … Forgoing the last major on the PGA TOUR Champions for his first trip to Glen Abbey since a T63 in 2015. With this and one more start on the PGA TOUR this season, he'll retain his voting privileges as a member, but he's 141st in the FedExCup standings, so the greater urgency is to kick it into gear to make the FedExCup Playoffs. Worth the price tag in DFS, especially. Keegan Bradley (all) Tyler Duncan (DFS) Jim Furyk (DFS) J.B. Holmes (DFS) Chris Kirk (all) Jamie Lovemark (all) Patrick Rodgers (SERVPRO) Fades Troy Merritt … While victory is always a bonus, he trended toward something special before emerging with the title at the Barbasol Championship on Monday. Now, because he converted instead of, say, merely recording a top 10, we have to guard against a letdown even though this isn't his first rodeo. His 1-for-3 record at Glen Abbey doesn't help (or hurt, depending on your perspective), but it doesn't matter, either. Sergio Garcia … Just his 12th start of the season and he's 132nd in the FedExCup. Teased gamers with a T12-T8 ramp into The Open Championship, a tournament for which he's a perennial short-lister, but he missed the cut at Carnoustie. Now he's getting his first look at Glen Abbey since his debut in 2000, but even contrarians have to shop elsewhere based on a primarily lackluster 2018 that includes MCs in all three majors and a 70th at THE PLAYERS. John Huh … Erased the last shred of doubt to get into the Playoffs with a T7 at the John Deere Classic. Now 95th in FedExCup points, it's entirely about building, but it would be the first time for that to happen in five appearances at Glen Abbey. He's never made the cut and his scoring average is 73.625 in eight rounds. Bill Haas Si Woo Kim Shane Lowry Ryan Palmer Andrew Putnam Returning to Competition Rory Sabbatini ... Withdrew after a first-round 72 at the John Deere Classic. An explanation wasn't released. The short week extended his drought without a top-35 finish to five straight starts. He's enjoyed success at Glen Abbey over the years, most recently in the forms of a T11 in 2015 and a faded T23 last year. So, there's merit to fractional ownership in DFS. Notable WDs Austin Cook … With starts at Firestone and Bellerive lined up the next two weeks, and after going T5-T34-T28 the last three weeks, this is the perfect time for a breather. Beau Hossler … The first-time PGA TOUR member has enjoyed a phenomenal season. While short of a victory, he's finished second twice and banked over $2.3 million and sits 32nd in the FedExCup standings. He'll qualify for the PGA Championship at the end of the week. Chesson Hadley … Currently 18th in the FedExCup standings. He'll gain entry into the PGA Championship at the conclusion of the RBC Canadian Open. Martin Kaymer … This would have marked his 11th start of the season. Positioned 216th in the FedExCup standings, he'd need to contend at the PGA Championship to trigger more playing time in the Playoffs. Short of that, he won't reach the membership minimum of 15 starts for the second time in four seasons, which means that he wouldn't be fully exempt in 2018-19 during what is the last season of his five-year exemption for winning the 2014 U.S. Open. Derek Fathauer … Easily the most surprising of all of this week's early withdrawals. He's 136th in the FedExCup standings. Interestingly, the last time he withdrew after a commitment deadline and before an opening round was at last year's RBC Canadian Open. Denny McCarthy … Withdrew early from last week's Barbasol Championship as well. No news has surfaced to help explain why and he's inactive on social media. Sits 146th in the FedExCup. Nate Lashley … In his return from knee surgery, he missed the cut on the Web.com Tour last week. The rookie is taking this week off.

Kevin Kisner and Zach Johnson are the co-leaders at 6-under heading into the weekend, but dozens of players are still within striking distance at golf's third major. Daily Fantasy sports sites FanDuel and DraftKings are offering weekend tournament, and before setting your PGA DFS lineups on either site, you'll want to see what Mike McClure has to say. McClure is a DFS pro with almost $2 million in career winnings, and he's had some spot-on picks in golf DFS this year. For the full weekend British Open tournament, McClure locked in Alex Noren as a value play at $8,300 on DraftKings and $9,800 on FanDuel. The result? Noren heads into the weekend very much in contention as he sits inside the top 20 with a score of 1-under par through two rounds. Anybody who had him in their lineup was well on their way to a profitable weekend. Now McClure has set his sights on the 2018 Open Championship weekend and revealed his optimal DFS lineups. He is only sharing them at SportsLine. One player McClure likes for weekend British Open tournaments: Patrick Reed, who is $7,600 on DraftKings and $11,400 on FanDuel. Reed, the 2018 Masters champion, snuck in under the cut line with a 3-over par through two rounds at the British Open 2018. But after a shaky start on Thursday, he settled in with a 70 in Round 2 on Friday, meaning he'll carry some confidence and momentum into the weekend. He's shown the ability to play well in the majors, so lock him in at an affordable price and watch the birdies roll in. Another pick McClure likes for the weekend: Tommy Fleetwood, who is $9,000 on DraftKings and $10,900 on FanDuel. Fleetwood enters Saturday 5-under after surging in the second round with a score of 65, pushing for the course record of 63 which he also owns. He's playing extremely well and has a great chance to win it all this weekend, so he's a pick you should be all over. McClure is also targeting multiple value picks you're not even thinking about that will allow you to build a loaded roster with huge potential. Picks like these could be the difference between winning your DFS contests or going home with nothing. So what 2018 Open Championship weekend lineup should you enter on DraftKings or FanDuel? And which value player is the key to victory in DFS?

Before you set your PGA Tour DFS lineups on DraftKings or FanDuel for the 2018 RBC Canadian Open, you need to hear what Mike McClure has to say. McClure is a DFS pro with almost $2 million in career winnings, and he's produced plenty of top PGA DFS picks this year. Last week at the British Open, McClure locked in Matt Kuchar at just $7,700 on DraftKings. The result: Kuchar shot a 4-under par for the tournament and finished in the top 10. Anybody who had him in their lineup was well on the way to a profitable weekend. Now McClure has set his sights on the 2018 RBC Canadian Open and has revealed his optimal DFS lineups. One big name McClure is all over this week: Tommy Fleetwood at $10,500 on DraftKings and $12,000 on FanDuel. Fleetwood is one of the hottest players on tour right now. He was in contention at the British Open before ultimately finishing 12th. He was second at the U.S. Open and recorded top-10 finishes at the Players Championship and Zurich Classic of New Orleans. He's 11th on tour in birdie average (4.11), which will allow him to rack up points for your DFS lineup in a hurry. A value pick McClure loves for the 2018 RBC Canadian Open: Jhonattan Vegas at $7,500 on DraftKings and $8,700 on FanDuel. Vegas has just one top-10 performance on the PGA Tour this year, but he owns Glen Abbey Golf Club, winning this event the last two years. He's looking to become the first PGA golfer since 2011 to win one event three times in a row, and he comes at an affordable price. Lock him in and look for another run at a course he plays extremely well. McClure is also targeting multiple value picks you're not even thinking about that will allow you to build a loaded roster with huge potential. Picks like these could be the difference between winning your DFS contests or going home with nothing. So what 2018 RBC Canadian Open lineup should you enter on DraftKings or FanDuel?
