Coming off a missed cut at Aronimink, Tommy Fleetwood is coming into Muirfield Village this week looking to find better form with his irons. He's lost strokes on approach in three out of his last four starts, which is not what we've come to expect from the 35-year-old. He's been one of the leading players this season off the tee, but the lack of production on the other side of the ball-striking equation makes it difficult to hang at the top of leaderboards. Nevertheless, the Englishman is one of the more proven DFS commodities, especially if the recent downturn in play decreases ownership percentage.

It's been a few years since Patrick Cantlay was the same dominant player who won this event in 2019 and 2021. However, he's shown some decent form in 2026, especially over the last two and a half months. Putting has been the only consistent concern this season, as he ranks 96th on the season in strokes gained on the green (-0.0.84). But his work from tee to green has been top 20 on tour all season, which is much more important at this difficult test. It also helps that Patty Ice is fifth this season in bogey avoidance. If he can reclaim the magic with the flat stick that granted him his nickname, he should be able to find his way into the mix here once again.

Things were a bit muted last week for Ludvig Aberg at Colonial Country Club, as he didn't have the same strength on approach as he's had for the last couple of months. He'll get a shot at redemption this week in Dublin, Ohio, for the Memorial Tournament. The 26-year-old has turned in two solid performances here over the last two seasons, with finishes of T5 and T16. Muirfield is as much of a major championship test as can be found on the PGA Tour, and with that comes an incredible importance from tee to green. Aberg ranks fourth on the season in this metric and has been one of the best long-iron players in professional golf. Play him with confidence.

Akshay Bhatia won at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and has three Top 10 results in 2026. The American golfer has seven Top 25 efforts in 13 events this season. Bhatia has been one of the best putters all year with 0.718 strokes gained (4th) but off the tee his 56.09% driving accuracy (119th). Bhatia is a longer shot at +8000 to win this week at the Memorial Tournament. However, the Top 20 betting projection could get to around +200. If Bhatia can be close to average accuracy wise with the driver, contending is very possible and he can be a viable option from both DFS and wagering standpoints.
