The Kia Classic field provides fantasy golf managers a rich set of options to put together a winning team.

Fantasy golf players are going to have a field day this week with the LPGA‘s Kia Classic.  ProGolfNow’s Mike Randleman and Tony Jesselli both rate the Kia Classic field as very strong, so I don’t need to re-plow that ground.

Aviara Golf Club will play 6593 yards this week and every one of those yards will challenge this high-caliber field.

The King designed this one and he took full advantage of the natural terrain to craft a track that winds through the hills around San Diego. Palmer, of course, ensured that players would face multiple water and sand hazards and in true Arnold Palmer fashion, created a track with 18 unique holes. It’s a fun golf course to play, particularly for a field as skilled as the one that will take it on this week.

I’ll shape my fantasy golf tips to the Ladies Dream Golf Pick-4 contest, but much of my assessment can work for other fantasy golf games as well.

That said, here’s how I see the choices for a winning fantasy golf team shaping up.
