5 Fantasy Golf Sleepers To Watch For In 2016 Masters

After months of seemingly uneventful tournaments, the Masters will finally tee off this Thursday. All the big names will be heading down to Augusta, and as a result, it will be rather difficult for us fantasy golf junkies to sniff out the most reliable options. So to help you pick the best foursome, here are five fantasy sleepers for the 2016 Masters.

5. Zach Johnson

Johnson won the Masters back in 2007 and recorded an impressive T9 in 2015. He also has four top-15 finishes on the season, including a solo fifth at Bay Hill last month. ZJ will have a steal as a second or third golfer in all fantasy formats this week.

4. Paul Casey

Casey has rattled off back-to-back top-10 finishes heading down to Augusta National. Even better, he recorded a T6 at the Masters last year. Casey won't be a threat to win it all this year, but the veteran will be a safe bet to finish inside the top-15 this Sunday.

3. Sergio Garcia

Garcia is consistently overrated in most major tournaments, but he always seems to put together a strong showing when it matters most. He has finished inside the top-20 in three of the last four years at the Masters, including a T17 last year. The veteran will once again be a bargain after the big names come off the board.

2. Phil Mickelson

Mickelson has amassed an incredible 11 top-five finishes at Augusta National throughout his illustrious career, including three wins. He has also finished inside the top-15 in four of his last five tournament stroke-play events. Lefty will be a serious sleeper as a second golfer this week in Georgia.

1. Dustin Johnson

Johnson heads to the Masters in midseason form. He has cracked the top-five in three of his last four tournament appearances, including an impressive solo third place finish at the Shell Houston Open. He will be a solid sleeper pick anywhere outside of the top-five fantasy golfers this week.
