2017 Masters: Top 5 DraftKings Picks for Augusta

Dustin Johnson — $11,300

With three victories in just seven starts this year, Johnson will roll into the Masters with a ton of momentum, so he ranks among the clear frontrunners for this week. He checks all of the boxes for potential success, so even with his hefty price tag, you can rest easy with him as your anchor in DraftKings.

Johnson is firing on all cylinders at the moment — his three victories, earned at the Genesis Open and the last two WGC events, stand as proof of that. He’s also found the top six in six of his seven starts in 2017, so he should have what it takes to shoot at least a couple of low scores this week. In terms of history, he’s found the top 15 in three of the last four editions of the Masters, peaking with a tie for fourth last year. The way he’s been playing this season, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see him take the next step and storm Butler Cabin this year.

There’s no doubt that Johnson will be a popular pick across all fantasy formats, but you don’t want to risk being left in the dust. The South Carolina native is on the run of his life, and he’s yet to show any signs of wavering.
