Player of the Year, Justin Thomas, looks to complete a hat trick victory at the CIMB Classic this week. The PGA Tour travels to TPC Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia for the second event of the 2017-2018 swing season.

CIMB Classic Fantasy Golf Rankings

PAS contributor and DFS analyst, Taylor @Sgrignoli3, and I have collaborated to create rankings for the CIMB Classic based on current form statistics for the past 12, 24 and 36 rounds played. We are still in the process of tweaking and updating our model. Unfortunately, the CIMB Classic does not use ShotLink data so there is little-to-no historical stats available for this event.

As mentioned in last week’s article, FantasyNational.com is used to help create our weekly fantasy golf rankings. Taylor and I will identify which statistical categories we feel are most important for the week’s tournament and create our rankings based on those weighted statistics.

The weighted player statistics we focused on when creating our rankings model for the CIMB Classic include:

Strokes Gained: Approach

Birdie or Better

Fairways Gained

Proximity from 100-125 yards

DraftKings Points

**Disclaimer: FantasyNational.com is used as source for all data and player statistics. If there happens to be a numerical error, blame them not us. Also, European Tour statistics are currently NOT included in the rankings calculations.

Best of luck! And don’t forget, DraftKings lineups lock at 8pm EST on Wednesday, October 11th.
