2024 Chevron Championship Draftkings Picks
Brooke Henderson $10,500
Since the beginning of January, Brooke Henderson has played seven tournaments on the LPGA Tour. In those seven events just mentioned, Henderson accumulated five top 16 finishes, including a third-place result at the 2024 HSBC Women’s World Championship last month.
Henderson also checks the box for me when it comes to key player statistics. Henderson is currently ranked fourth in GIR (greens in regulation-74.49%), 11th in scoring average (69.93), and second in total birdies made (109) on the LPGA Tour.
Brooke Henderson has played well at the Chevron Championship in the past. More specifically, Henderson finished 23rd at the 2023 Chevron Championship.
Megan Khang $8,100
Megan Khang has accumulated four top 13 finishes in her last six events played on the LPGA Tour, including a third-place result at the 2024 LPGA Drive On Championship in January.
Similar to Brooke Henderson, Megan Khang has played well at this week’s major championship previously. Khang finished ninth at the 2023 Chevron Championship.
Hae-Ran Ryu $7,700
The talented South Korean has accumulated three top 22 finishes in her last five tournaments played on the LPGA Tour, including a ninth-place result at the 2024 Match Play Championship two weeks ago.
Jennifer Kupcho $7,400
Jennifer Kupcho arrives at this week’s event on the heels on two consecutive top 15 finishes on the LPGA Tour, including an eighth-place result at the 2024 Ford Championship three weeks ago.
In my opinion, Jennifer Kupcho presents outstanding fantasy value at the low Draftkings price of only $7,400.
Additional golfers I like (Draftkings price noted): Lydia Ko $10,300: Angel Yin $8,700: Hye Jin Choi $8,200: Linn Grant $7,900: Georgia Hall $7,400.
