Hoffman posted a T8 at Congressional last year. He is in the middle of a strong season (five top-25s) and will look to build off his previous success in Bethesda.

Before his string finishes outside the top-50, Woodland cracked the top-26 in seven straight tournaments. Don’t let him fall too far this week, because he will once again be worth grabbing as a sleeper.

Palmer may be a somewhat hit-or-miss fantasy option, but he still has five top-10 finishes on the year. He will be worth a look as a second golfer this week.

Dufner hasn’t competed at Congressional since missing the cut at the 2011 U.S. Open. However, he does has seven top-20 finishes in 14 appearances this year. The Duff-man will be a pretty safe bet to crack the top-15 this week in Maryland.
