Fantasy golf is extremely difficult to predict. There are too many things to account for and picking a winner can be next to impossible. However, it can still be done. So to help you pick the best possible team this weekend, here are five fantasy golf predictions for the 2016 Wells Fargo Championship.
5. Padraig Harrington Will Make The Cut
Getty ImagesHarrington cracked the top-10 here in back-to-back appearances between 2010-11. Unfortunately, he has missed the cut in three straight trips to Quail Hollow. Luckily, I think that streak will end and the veteran will be playing golf this Sunday.
4. Hideki Matsuyama Won’t Crack Top-20
Getty imagesMatsuyama has become a reliable fantasy options over the past few seasons, but he has never fared well at Quail Hollow. He recorded a T20 in 2015 and a T38 in 2014. I wouldn’t bet on him even cracking the top-25 on Sunday.
3. Phil Mickelson Will Crack Top-5
Getty ImagesNo one has had success here like Mickelson. He has cracked the top-11 in eight of the last nine years at Quail Hollow, including a T4 here last spring. He may not have ever won this event, but he can certainly post another top-five.
2. Rory McIlroy Won’t Win
Getty ImagesAfter dominating last year’s event, McIlroy will naturally be a popular pick to repeat this year. He also has five top-10 finishes in 10 worldwide events. However, he hasn’t participated in an event in over a month and will be somewhat rusty.
1. A Sleeper Will Win It All
