Making the most cuts

Look at the field at Pebble to see who has made the highest percentage of cuts since 2015

The last two weeks I have been totally frustated with players missing the cut.  Last week in Phoenix, I picked the winner, then had two others that were close and had terrible final rounds but by week was torpedoed due to picking three guys that missed the cut.  The worst insult was in a three way game, I lost to a person who didn’t have anyone in the top-50, but had six guys that made the cut which is better than a winner and three guys that missed the cut.

In playing DraftKings the number one rule is to make sure you have six players play 72 holes.  If you accomplish that feat, then the rest is easy.  So in looking at the problem I have come up with a list of those playing this week at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-am and it’s sorted through the highest percentage of made cuts since the start of the 2015 season.  Now another important piece of information is their PGA Tour rank in Parbreakers which is good to know you makes the most eagles and birdies.  I have also included their cost for this week’s game.

I will spend the next week to figuring out a easier way of presenting it, right now it’s a bit raw so sorry for the strain of the eyes, it will get better.  Tell us what you think of this new guide:

  2. Why isn’t Charles Howell III listed here? He makes tons of cuts!
