One more round of golf from Colonial Country Club in the Fort Worth area. Davis Riley has now shown this much here since his rookie year on tour. The Alabama Golf Alumni was always touted as one of the most talented young players but had little to show for it. Riley has one more round to prove all those notions correct.
We have now cashed two straight Underdog Fantasy Pick Em slips. Scottie Scheffler’s less than 67.5 strokes were sweat-free, and Sungjae’s “The Birdie Maker” Im cashed his more than 3.5 birdie prop with ease. Below, we will take a stab at two more props and cash another slip. Here are the Underdog Fantasy Pick Em plays for May 26th.
Charles Schwab Underdog Fantasy Pick em’ Plays – May 26th, 2024
Scottie Scheffler Less Than 67 Strokes
We are going right back to the greatest golfer on planet Earth. Scottie got right after the slow start to the week and finds himself in the final group. Being four strokes back, Scottie knows he will need to go low. A scorched earth, carefree Scottie Scheffler is a dangerous golfer, and I am expecting him to show out. Coming off the best round of the week, 67 should be nothing for Scottie. Pencil in Scottie Scheffler to cash his prop in round 4 of the 2024 Charles Schwab Challenge.
Davis Riley Higher Than 69.5 Strokes
Davis has proven to go in the wrong direction once he gets near the lead. In round three, he saw his seven-shot lead turn to three in a matter of minutes. He will surely be feeling the pressure of playing with world number one. An under-par round would be very impressive from Davis Riley, and I am not buying it. I do not think Riley has the guts to win in round four, at least not with a great round! He is a great fade for your Underdog Fantasy Pick ‘Em slip on May 26th.
