Cadillac Championship Course: Trump National Doral
The Cadillac Championship returns to the famous Blue Monster Course at Doral, one of the most demanding and recognizable layouts in golf.
This par-72 course stretches over 7,700 yards, featuring wide fairways off the tee but punishing hazards that come into play the closer players push toward ideal angles. Length is an advantage here, but only if it’s paired with control.
The Blue Monster is defined by water hazards, deep bunkers, and firm greens, forcing players to execute precise approach shots.
Many holes are exposed, meaning wind often becomes a major factor, especially on longer par-4s and par-5s where second shots are key.
Even though the fairways are generous, missing in the wrong spots can quickly lead to bogeys or worse. The closing stretch is one of the toughest finishes in golf, highlighted by the 18th hole, a long par-4 with water running the entire left side and pressure building with every shot.
It’s a course that rewards power, ball-striking, and mental toughness, and with hazards lurking on nearly every hole, mistakes can add up quickly.
Expect a demanding test where staying patient and avoiding big numbers is critical to contending.
Cadillac Championship: Players That Can Trip You Up
Tommy Fleetwood is getting top-tier respect in the odds, but this setup doesn’t fully suit him. At 7,700 yards, length matters, and that’s not a strength for Fleetwood.
He’s also trending the wrong way with finishes of 33rd and 52nd in his last two starts. Being priced as a Top 3 golfer feels far too aggressive given the form and fit. Easy pass at this number.
Hideki Matsuyama looks like he’s starting to cool off after a decent run earlier in the season. He hasn’t posted a Top 10 in his last five tournaments, and his lack of distance off the tee can be a disadvantage on longer layouts.
His history at this course—albeit from a while ago—wasn’t impressive either. Yet he’s still priced as a Top 10 option this week. The number doesn’t match the current trajectory.
Chris Gotterup is another player whose price doesn’t line up with production. He’s being listed as a Top 7 contender, but has just one Top 10 finish in his last seven starts.
While he brings plenty of distance, his lack of accuracy off the tee can lead to trouble, especially on a demanding layout. At this price point, you need reliability or elite form—and he has neither right now.
Cadillac Championship: DraftKings Darlings
Ryo Hisatsune ($7,000) is a great bounce-back candidate in this range. One poor finish last time out doesn’t erase a season full of Top 30s and multiple Top 10s.
His stats are solid across the board, with around-the-green play the only real weakness—and that shouldn’t be heavily exposed here. In a no-cut format, four guaranteed rounds plus his scoring upside make him a strong DFS target.
Gary Woodland ($7,400) is trending in a big way and looks underpriced for his current form. He’s finished Top 14 in three of his last four tournaments, and the underlying numbers back it up —strong approach play, improved putting, and still plenty of distance off the tee.
When Woodland gets hot like this, he can pile up birdies quickly. At this price, the upside is very real.
Keegan Bradley ($7,500) is starting to round into form after a slow start to the season. He’s coming off finishes of 21st and 12th, and his stats have improved across the board.
Over the last 30 days, he ranks 12th in total strokes gained in this field, showing his game is trending in the right direction. If that continues, Bradley offers both stability and top-15 upside at this salary.
Rest of Lineup: Maverick McNealy $8800, Jake Knapp $9500, Collin Morikawa $9800 One and Done: Harris English
