Fantasy Golf Buy, Sell and Hold for BMW Championships

We are in the thick of it now.  70 golfers head to Chicago and only 30 will be left standing come Sunday afternoon.

This is the best of the best, trying to make it to Atlanta for the Tour Championship.
A lot of money, points and pride on the line this week at a revamped Cog Hill.

Here is this week's buy, sell, and hold.

Buy:

Luke Donald (A) -   Lives in the area, knows the course and should be in the mix this week.

Phil Mickelson (A) - Phil might be able to find a little magic this week as he heads to Atlanta.

Steve Stricker (B) - You have to play Stricker as B-selection this week.  He knows this course and has won here.

Bubba Watson (B) - Played pretty well last week before the final round.  A good B pick.

John Senden (B) - Played well in Boston.  Can he keep that going?

Jason Day (C) - Has played well in the playoffs.  He has confidence.

Mark Wilson (C) - He likes this course.  After a bad opening round last year, he posted three good rounds.  Look for that to continue.

Sell:

Ernie Els (A) - Don't count on Ernie this week.

Sean O'Hair (B) - You never know what you are getting with Sean these days.

Scott Stallings (C) Based on his play in August and September, stay away.

Hold:

Dustin Johnson (A) - If you still have starts left you have to play him.  But if you only have one start left, do you save that for Atlanta?

Fantasy Golf Buy, Sell or Hold for Deutsche Bank Championship

The cuts have begun and we are now down to the top-100 in the FedExCup points as we head to the TPC of Boston.  The course escaped any major damage from Hurricane Irene and officials say final preparations won't take that long as the week begins.

With his win, Dustin Johnson now sits atop the points standings and Matt Kuchar resides in second.

Here is this week's buy, sell and hold.


Buy

Matt Kuchar (A) - He wants that top spot in the FedExCup points standings.

Luke Donald (A) - He finished in a T-2 here last year.

Steve Stricker (B) - Hasn't missed a cut so far in 2011, finished 9th here last year.

John Senden (B) - Is about due for a top finish or a win.  Had an 8th place finish here in 2010.

Vijay Singh (B) - Playing well in the playoffs.

Charl Schwartzel (B) - The Masters champ is back.  He hasn't played since a decent result at the PGA.

Sergio Garcia (C) - Had a good PGA, but nothing spectacular at The Barclays.  Should rebound this week.

Jason Day (C) - A bunch of good results the second half of 2011 has put Day in good position.



Sell

Graeme McDowell (A) - He's having a bit of a down 2011 for a play that hits the ball as well as he does.

Sean O'Hair (B) - No reason to take Sean this week.

Chris Couch (C) - Hasn't played well in his last two events.  No reason to take him this week.


Hold

Keegan Bradley (C) - Should you take Keegan Bradley at a tournament in Boston?  Up to you to decide.

Fantasy Golf Buy, Sell, or Hold for The Barclays

Here is this week's buy, sell, and hold.

Buy:

Matt Kuchar (A) - It's a different course, but he used this event as a springboard last year.

Luke Donald (A) - Playing well right now, he should be a solid play this week.

Steve Stricker (B) - If you have any starts left for Stricker, use him.

Webb Simpson (B) - Is anybody playing better than Webb Simpson right now?

Davis Love III (B) - Davis might be able to snatch a win at one of these tournaments.

Rickie Fowler (B) - Fowler is primed for a good run in the playoffs.

Tommy Gainey (C) - Why not?  He's playing well.

Adam Scott (C) - With Stevie on the bag, he's playing well.  He could win this week.

Sell:

Padraig Harrington (A) - Hasn't really been a threat in 2011.

Ben Crane (B) - One top-10 all year is not great.

William McGirt (C) - Just squeezed into the top-125.  Not a threat.

Hold:

Jim Furyk (A) - It hasn't been the best of years for this veteran, but he's playing better now at the end of the year.

Fantasy Golf: Buy, Sell, or Hold for the PGA Championship

The final major of 2011 will be getting underway this week and that means it is also an important week for fantasy golf players.

Hopefully you have some starts left for some of the players you think will fare well on the tough track at the Atlanta Athletic Club.

The weather will be hot and sticky and that may be an advantage to many of the golfers that have been playing events in th U.S. where it has been extremely hot all summer.

David Toms won here the last time the PGA Championship was at the Atlanta Athletic Club.  He was accurate and didn't make mistakes down the stretch as he took the title.

Here's a quick buy, sell, or hold.

Buy:

Dustin Johnson (A) - He he poised to win a major?

Nick Watney (A) - He's lurking in the rough, and if he starts well, he's a good closer.

Steve Stricker (B) - A must play.  He'll be around on the weekend.

Charl Schwartzel (B) - Didn't have a good Bridgestone, but he's The Masters champ.

Y.E. Yang (B) - I think this could be a good course for Yang.

Rory McIlroy (C) - You have to take him as a C pick.

Gary Woodland (C) - He should have a good week.

Zach Johnson (C) - Plays well in Georgia, but is that enough for him this week?

Sell:

Jonathan Byrd (A)

Angel Cabrera (B) - Hasn't made a cut since early June.

Anthony Kim (C) - He's good one week, bad the next.  Which Anthony Kim will show up in Atlanta?

Hold:

David Toms (B) - Can the 2001 champ do it again at the Atlanta Athletic Club.
