2024 LIV Golf Adelaide Draftkings Picks

Joaquin Niemann $11,000

Joaquin Niemann arrives at this week’s tournament in rather good form. Niemann has accumulated four consecutive top 22 finishes (LIV Golf and PGA Tours combined), including a win at the 2024 LIV Golf Jeddah event last month.

Niemann certainly checks the box for me when it comes to key player statistics. Niemann is currently ranked fourth in GIR (greens in regulation-74.07%), tenth in putting average (1.57), and second in driving distance (315.7) on the LIV Golf Tour.

It should also be noted that Joaquin Niemann has posted a quality tournament result in Australia previously. Niemann won the 2023 ISPS Handa Australian Open on the DP World Tour in December.

Cameron Smith $9,900

The talented Australian has accumulated two top six finishes in his last three events played (LIV Golf and PGA Tours combined), including an impressive sixth place result at the 2024 Masters Tournament two weeks ago.

Cameron Smith finished fourth at the inaugural 2023 LIV Golf Adelaide event.

Abraham Ancer $9,400

Abraham Ancer arrives at this week’s tournament on the heels of three consecutive top 12 finishes on the LIV Golf Tour, including a win at the 2024 LIV Golf Hong Kong event last month.

Ancer has played well at the Grange Golf Club in the past. More specifically, Ancer finished 11th at the 2023 LIV Golf Adelaide event.

Lucas Herbert $8,200

Since the beginning of February, Lucas Herbert has played seven tournaments (LIV Golf and Asian Tours combined). In those seven events just mentioned, Herbert accumulated four top 22 finishes, including a third-place result at the 2024 International Series Macau five weeks ago.

Additional golfers I like to play well (Draftkings price noted): Dean Burmester $9,300: Patrick Reed $8,800: Henrik Stenson $7,600: Sebastian Munoz $7,300: Pat Perez $6,300.
