The best week of the year is here. Augusta National is the single most aesthetic golf course on planet Earth and one of the toughest tests in golf. Keys to success around Augusta are driving distance, long iron play, touch around the green, and the ability to putt it well on extremely fast and slopey greens. If you read that and said to yourself, “So… everything?” Then you are right. If you want to put on that green jacket, you cannot have a weakness in your game. Let’s take a look at the best plays in each price range ahead of The 2024 Masters.

2024 The Masters Best DFS Plays By Range
Upper Range: Scottie Scheffler $12,100
Scottie is still not priced where he should be and we will take advantage of it. World number one and 2022 Masters Champion is truthfully in the best form of his career. Scottie has won in two of his last three starts and has gained strokes in every category in three straight events. Believe it or not, this is the first time Scottie has done this in his career.
The most fun Scottie Scheffler stat I’ve seen recently:
If you distributed strokes gained numbers like NFL passing yards, Scottie would be throwing for 914.8 yds/game

There is no reason to bore you guys with Scottie Scheffler’s stats. He is far and above the best tee-to-green player in the game today, and the mallet putter has worked his wonders on the greens. We always said, “What if Scottie could putt?” We are seeing it! The dude is a killer, and he is just getting started. Click Scheffler’s name at the top of your 2024 Masters DFS Lineups.
Mid Range: Si Woo Kim $7,100
Si Woo has been putting on an absolute ball-striking display over the last two months. He is gaining strokes both off the tee and on approach in buckets this stretch. Si Woo should be very confident heading into Augusta. He has played well here before and is clearly in great form.
The South Korean has gained three plus strokes ball striking multiple times at Augusta and I trust him to do that once again. The putter is always a question mark. At 7.1K, he gives ball striking that you will not find until you reach the 10K range. Si Woo is a great selection in the mid-range in your 2024 Masters DFS lineups.
Bottom Range: Cam Davis $6,900
As the Cam Davis truther that I am… I believe he is going to pick off an elite field in an elite event sooner rather than later. Looking at Cam Davis’ golf swing and skill set, he has every tool to be a top-five player in the world. There are times that he shows it as well, but he has lacked consistency in his career.
In a year or so from now, zero people would be surprised if Cam Davis got over the hump and he became a top-ten player in the world. He is extremely long off the tee, an excellent iron player, and has a great short game to match it.
The putter is hit or miss. With all that being said, Davis will be underlooked and will be a low-owned option that can make some noise in The 2024 Masters.
Probably no one more comfortable than Cam Davis hitting one lefty.
