BlogHistorical Quail Hollow DraftKings Data

Do you want a perfect way to determine who can win this week?

Do you want to know who historically earned the most DraftKings points for the players who played at Quail Hollow?

Since 2020, Quail Hollow has hosted three Truist Championships. The 2020 Truist was called off due to the pandemic, and the 2022 Truist wasn’t played because the Presidents Cup used the course, so we have DraftKings results for 2021, ’23, and ’24.

Below is a chart of the 86 players in the 156-player field who have played in the Truist since 2000.  Even if you don’t play DraftKings or any other fantasy pick-six, this list is a great barometer for those with good track records at Quail Hollow..

Of the 86 players on our list, 26 have played all three years. So you can see these are the top players you should look at.  Here are the top ten, with the average points earned for all five years:

• Rory McIlroy – 102.7 per event
• Xander Schauffele – 96.3 per event
• Wyndham Clark – 82.2 per event
• Gary Woodland – 79.3 per event
• Viktor Hovland – 74.8 per event
• Tommy Fleetwood – 74.8 per event
• Corey Conners – 71.7 per event
• Harris English – 70.7 per event
• Justin Thomas – 68.8 per event
• Keegan Bradley – 67.5 per event

Now, many will ask how Scottie Scheffler ranks on our list. He has never played in the Truist Championship. He only played at Quail Hollow at the 2022 Presidents Cup, which didn’t go well. He lost three of four matches and halved the other one.

Of those who played in just two Truist, the best is Keith Mitchell (who was T-3rd in 2001 and T-59th in 2023), with 79.5 points per event.

There were three LIV golfers who did well among those who only played once. Tyrrell Hatton was the best. In 2023, he finished T-3rd and earned 103 points. In 2021, Patrick Reed finished T-6th and scored 75.5 points. Last is Bryson DeChambeau, who in 2021 finished T-9th and earned 74.5 points.

Two other LIV players of interest are Joaquin Niemann, who finished T-18th in 2021 and earned 67 points, and Jon Rahm, who missed the cut and earned 30 points.

In looking for some bargain players this week, you can’t go wrong with these folks:

• Keith Mitchell costs 6,200 points and has averaged 79.5 points in his two starts: (T-3rd in 2021 and T-58th in 2003)
• Gary Woodland costs 5,800 points and has averaged 79.3 points in three starts: finishing 5th in 2021, T-14th in 2023, and T-38th last year.
• Corey Conners costs 8,300 points and has averaged 71.7 points in three starts, finishing T-43rd in 2021, T-8th in 2023, and T-13th last year.
• Harris English costs 6,800 points and has averaged 70.7 points in three starts, finishing T-43rd in 2021, T-3rd in 2023, and T-34th last year.
• Seamus Power costs 5,600 points and has averaged 67.5 points in three starts, finishing T-54th in 2021, T-18th in 2023, and T-16th last year.
• Sungjae Im costs 8,200 points and has averaged 65.8 points in three starts, missed the cut in 2021, T-8th in 2023, and T-4th last year.
• Denny McCarthy costs 6,700 points and has averaged 62 points in three starts, missed the cut in 2021, T-8th in 2023, and T-6th last year.
• Max Homa costs 7,600 points and has averaged 59.8 points in three starts, missed the cut in 2021, T-8th in 2023, and T-8th last year.

So, who are the players who are way overpriced for the average points earned?

• Jon Rahm costs 10,200 points and has averaged 30 points in one start, missing the cut in 2021.
• Collin Morikawa costs 10,400 points and has averaged 43.2 points in two starts; missed cut in 2023, and T-16th last year.
• Will Zalatoris costs 8,700 points and has averaged 30 points in two starts:  Missed the cut in 2021, and T-60th last year.
• Jordan Spieth costs 9,300 points and has averaged 45.5 points in two starts.  Missed the cut in 2023,  and T-29th last year.
• Shane Lowry costs 9,200 points and has averaged 41.5 points in three starts:   T-65th in 2021, missed cut in 2023, and T-47th last year.

So here is the list; I hope it helps:
