Dell Technologies Championship fantasy picks
The PGA Tour heads to TPC Boston for the Dells Technologies Championship as the race for the $10 million FedEx Cup bonus hots up.
Rickie Fowler has pulled out with the same oblique injury that prevented him from playing at Ridgewood where Bryson DeChambeau’s victory propelled him to the top of the FedEx Cup standings.
The aim in this year’s game is to pick the right players to match the RankBuster. This week’s is set at 149 so who can you fit in your team to beat it? Here are my Dell Technologies fantasy picks.
Jordan Spieth
Fantasy Rank: 7
It’s not been the best year for the ‘Golden Child’ but would it really be a shock to the system if Spieth pulled some form out of thin air to win the FedEx Cup?
He finished second here last year behind Justin Thomas
Tony Finau
Fantasy Rank: 12
Finau is hitting form at the right time ahead of Jim Furyk’s captain’s picks in a few weeks time and currently sits fourth in the FedEx standings with nine top 10 finishes this season.
The only criteria Finau is missing is a win on tour this year, if he nails a win this week you’d hope he’d be handed a plane ticket to Paris at the end of the month.
Patrick Reed
Fantasy Rank: 18
Reed has a great record at TPC Boston over the last three years having finished T6 last year, T5 in 2016 and T4 in 2015.
The American goes into the Dell Technologies Championship off the back of a T25 finish at Ridgewood last week.
Gary Woodland
Fantasy Rank: 29
Woodland threatened a good finish last week after two rounds of 68 on Friday and Saturday bumped him up the leaderboard but a final round of 73 meant he finished T48.
His form prior to that read T22-T17-T6, the T6 finish coming at the PGA Championship at the start of the month. He also finished T18 here last year.
Daniel Berger
Fantasy Rank: 43
Comes off a T15 finish at Ridgewood thanks to a final round of three under par and bounced back after his missed cut at the Wyndham Championship.
It is projected that he requires a 43rd place or better to qualify for the BMW Championship.
Emiliano Grillo
Fantasy Rank: 47
Grillo never got going last week at Ridgewood but still managed to finish inside the top 50 and was never in threat of missing the cut. A third round of 72 stalled the Argentinian over the weekend and he couldn’t get a could run going to gain some valuable FedEx Cup points.
He currently sits 48th in the FedEx Cup standings but will be looking to get himself into a healthy position to try and have a run of qualifying for for the top 25 for East Lake

Matthew Beedle
Matthew has been playing golf since he was around 13 and took up the game at a local nine-hole municipal course with his friends before joining Pontefract & District Golf Club just over the hedge.
Still a member of Pontefract with a handicap of 3, he currently sits on the board of directors to help with digital and marketing initiatives in order to improve membership and visitor income.
Matthew graduated university with a First Class in Sports Journalism from Leeds Trinity University and has been working in the golf industry since graduating.
NCG’s social media & marketing manager, Matthew’s main job role is to increase website traffic to the National Club Golfer website via our email and social media channels as well as driving entries to grow our NCG Top 100s Tour events amongst other tasks.
Not one to change his equipment too often, Matthew currently plays the TaylorMade M2 driver which has lasted the test of time in his bag. Elsewhere, you’ll find him using the TaylorMade Stealth 2 three-wood with a Ping G425 Crossover 2-iron to aid his long game.
Through his 4-iron to Gap Wedge, Matthew uses the Ping i500 irons accompanied by Ping’s Glide 3.0 56-degree and 60-degree wedges.
Another club that has stood the test of time in his bag is a Nike Method Core MC-3i putter which has had to have the SuperStroke grip changed at least three times. Ball of choice is the Titleist ProV1.
