Keegan Bradley DraftKings Fantasy Golf Houston Open

Keegan Bradley hasn’t been in the winner’s circle since the 2012 WGC-Bridgestone Invitational, but this week in Houston could be his chance to turn that around. Steadily improving following a disastrous season that saw him finish outside the top 100 in the FedEx Cup for the first time, Bradley has two top-ten finishes and nine made cuts in 11 starts so far this year.

What you’re really getting when you plug Bradley into your DraftKings lineup this week, is a fantastic horse for the Houston course. Since 2012, Bradley has placed inside the top 15 at Houston four times, with three top-ten finishes. He’s missed the cut here just once in his career, in that 2016 adjustment year. For the price of just $8,600, you simply won’t find a better value than the 2011 PGA Champion.

So far in 2018, Bradley ranks 18th on TOUR in driving accuracy (68.20%), 24th in greens in regulation (69.91%), and 25th in proximity to the hole on approach. His putting has been lacking, but he continues to put up solid results with almost every outing. Imagine what happens when he gets to a comfortable track like Houston. You want that kind of upside on your roster every time.
