Bryson DeChambeau and Patrick Reed have been regulars in PGA DFS lineups for years, but daily Fantasy golf players will have to decide if they can be trusted when they set their PGA DFS strategy for the 2021 Rocket Mortgage Classic, which tees off on Thursday. DeChambeau, who's the highest priced player on both DraftKings and FanDuel, enters this week's event full of confidence, having secured two wins and six top-10 finishes this season. However, DeChambeau has finished T-26 or worse in five of his last eight starts. 

Reed, whose PGA DFS price is $10,900 on DraftKings and $11,800 on FanDuel, missed the cut at the Rocket Mortgage Classic last season. However, Reed enters this week's event ranked inside the top-10 in strokes gained: putting (.709), putting average (1.706) and one-putt percentage (44.91). Can those household names be relied on as PGA DFS picks this week, or is it time to fade them in favor of players with a significantly lower price tag? Before you enter any PGA DFS tournaments or cash games for the 2021 Rocket Mortgage Classic, you'll want to see the latest daily Fantasy golf picks, advice and player pool from SportsLine's Mike McClure.

McClure is a DFS pro with nearly $2 million in career winnings, and he's been red-hot on his PGA Tour picks this season. McClure is also a predictive data engineer at SportsLine who uses a powerful prediction model that simulates every tournament 10,000 times, taking factors like statistical trends, past results and current form into account. This allows him to find the best PGA DFS values and create optimal lineups that he shares only over at SportsLine. They're a must-see for any PGA DFS player.

Last week at the Travelers Championship, McClure included Abraham Ancer among his top PGA DFS picks. The result: Ancer secured a fourth-place finish, returning tournament winning value at an affordable price. Anybody who had him in their lineup was well on the way to a profitable weekend.

In addition, McClure's model is up over $8,500 on its best bets since the restart, nailing tournament after tournament. This same model has also nailed a whopping seven majors entering the weekend. Anyone who has followed it has seen massive returns.

Now, McClure has set his sights on the Rocket Mortgage Classic 2021 and revealed his optimal PGA DFS advice, strategy and player pool. Head to SportsLine now to see his top daily Fantasy golf picks for the 2021 Rocket Mortgage Classic. 

Top 2021 Rocket Mortgage Classic PGA DFS picks

One of McClure's top PGA DFS picks for the Rocket Mortgage Classic 2021: Doc Redman at $7,900 on DraftKings and $10,100 on FanDuel. Redman's price tag makes him an extremely affordable piece for PGA DFS lineups this week. That's because Redman has been playing extremely well in his most recent outings. In fact, the 23-year-old has finished inside the top-10 in two of his last five starts, which includes a runner-up finish at the Palmetto Championship. 

In addition, Redman earned a runner-up finish at this event in 2019, shooting 68 or below in all four rounds. Lock him in your PGA DFS lineup and look for a big return this week at Detroit Golf Club.

McClure's optimal PGA DFS strategy also includes rostering Hideki Matsuyama at $10,400 on DraftKings and $11,900 on FanDuel.

Matsuyama ranks inside the top 25 in a number of important statistical categories, which will help return solid value for your PGA DFS lineups at the 2021 Rocket Mortgage Classic. The defending Masters champion ranks 18th in strokes gained: tee-to-green (1.124), 16th in strokes gained: approach the green (.642) and 25th in total birdies (291). Matsuyama also secured a 13th-place finish at this event in 2019, which makes him an extremely valuable PGA DFS asset this week.
