A day after record-setting scores were set, Innisbrook wouldn’t provide much of a fight on Saturday either. With soft conditions, golfers took advantage of perfect greens. None better than Davis Riley, who shot a day’s best 62 and will take the lead into Sunday. That provides some unique PGA DFS picks for the final round slate as DraftKings offers 100K to first for the final round slate.

Round 3 Recap
Fellow Alabama alum Justin Thomas had the first-hand account of Riley’s 62, playing with him and shooting his third straight 66 on the week. He’ll be three back entering the final well within striking distance. As is defending champion Sam Burns who shot his second straight 67 after opening with a 64.
There were a few movers on moving day with Robert Streb, Alex Noren and Tyler Duncan all shooting six under and going from just making the cut to inside the top 10, or just out of it. The leaderboard is spaced out a bit, with only four golfers within five shots and the next batch of golfers seven back.

Best PGA DFS Golf Picks Today for DraftKings Showdown
Typically, ownership for the final round slate is heavily favored toward golfers near the top of the leaderboard. Rightfully so, as finishing points are given to golfers for the final round slate. So one can expect Justin Thomas($10,800) and Sam Burns ($9,800) to be the highest owned golfers of the slate. Even more so than today, where ownership was higher than 35%. Matt Fitzpatrick ($9,000) and Adam Hadwin ($8,800) will also be very popular given their chance to win and position on the leaderboard. A few lower-owned pivots at similar price points include Viktor Hovland ($10,200), Dustin Johnson ($9,500), Louis Oosthuizen ($9,400), and Brooks Koepka ($8,700).Â
- Alex Noren ($8,400): Starting his day with a 30-foot eagle, Noren was bound to make a move. He’d continue the strong play throughout the day and shot a six-under 65. vaulting up the leaderboard. Having played well all season and in it again, Noren should be a great pair for a two-stud build, or part third or fourth in a balanced lineup.
- Kevin Streelman ($7,900): The only thing lacking in Kevin’s game this week is his approach game. He’s got his putter going, hitting 80 % of his fairways and gaining around the green. That has what’s kept him close to the top 10, and has one more chance to put to use his solid driving and putting stats on Sunday.
- Bernd Wiesberger ($7,500):Â Having made the cut on the number yesterday with a solid finish in round two, Wiesberger is making the most of his exemption into this weeks’ tournament as he moved up the board with a five-under 66. His putter had been what was holding him back, but he gained strokes in the third round finally, because of that, was able to put to use a solid tee to green game.
- Russell Knox ($8,000): A very solid Florida swing for Knox will come to an end tomorrow, but before it does, he’s got a shot at his second straight top 10, starting just a few outside the number. He’s gained strokes in all four categories over the first three days, with his putter really waking up today, gaining over 1.5 strokes. He’s carrying solid momentum with him and has solid results here at this course this week and in years past, and should also be relatively low owned for the final round slate.
