2024 ISPS Handa Championship Draftkings Picks

Christiaan Bezuidenhout $10,500

The talented South African arrives at this week’s DP World Tour event on the heels of four consecutive top 28 finishes on the PGA Tour, including a ninth-place result at the 2024 Valspar Championship four weeks ago.

Christiaan Bezuidenhout also checks the box for me when it comes to key player statistics. Bezuidenhout is currently ranked 12th in strokes gained putting (.647), third in par four scoring (3.92), 15th in overall scoring average (69.49), and 16th in scrambling (67.10%) on the PGA Tour.

Yannik Paul $9,600

Three weeks ago, Yannik Paul fired a third round 68 at the 2024 Hero Indian Open en route to an eventual tenth place finish.

Due to the fact that Yannik Paul posted a quality finish at the 2024 Hero Indian Open I decided to take a hard look at the relevant player data for the event to see how Paul fared relative to the field.

Upon the completion of four rounds of competitive play at the 2024 Hero Indian Open, in relation to the field, Yannik Paul ranked fourth in bogey avoidance (2), 12th in par four scoring (3.92), third in GIR (greens in regulation-80.5%), and 12th in strokes gained approach (1.26).

Yannik Paul also finished sixth at the 2023 ISPS Handa Championship.

Takumi Kanaya $9,400

Takumi Kanaya has accumulated two top seven finishes in his last four tournaments played (Asian and Japan Golf Tours combined), including a win at the 2024 Token Homemate Cup three weeks ago.

Younghan Song $7,000

Since the beginning of November, Younghan Song has played eight events (Asian and Japan Golf Tours combined). In those eight tournaments just mentioned, Song has accumulated five top 29 finishes, including a fourth-place result at the 2024 Golf Nippon Series JT Cup in December.

Additional golfers I like to play well this week (Draftkings price noted): Romain Langasque $8,600: Keita Nakajima $10,000: Taihei Sato $6,900: Ren Yonezawa $6,900: Satoshi Kodaira $6,900.
