The FedEx Cup is right around the corner, and players will have their final chance to make the field at this weeks Wyndham Championship. Golfers on the bubble will need to finish strong and earn a spot in the top 125, while others are looking ahead to the later stages of the playoffs, or have Ryder Cup aspirations.Our DFS golf experts have put together the players they believe have the skills and motivation to succeed this week and provide the best value. This weeks panel is comprised of Bob Harig and David Jayne, as well as FantasyGolfInsiders Jeff Bergerson, Zach Turcotte, Taras Pitra and Jason Rouslin..Note: Golfer salaries listed are for DraftKings.Bob Harig -- Brandt Snedeker ($9,800)A winner of the Wyndham at a different course, Snedeker has three top-10s at Sedgefield Country. Has been inconsistent since his victory at the Farmers in January, but needs a big two weeks as hes one spot out of automatically qualifying for the U.S. Ryder Cup team.David Jayne -- Kevin Kisner ($8,300)In order to succeed at Sedgefield Country Club, players will need to be able to position the ball off the tee and handle these fast Bermuda greens that slope back to front. With that in mind, Kisner is my guy this week. He has been playing well of late after struggling to replace a shattered long-time driver of his during the middle of the season. Hes made the cut in each of three appearances here and improved his finishing position each time, highlighted by an eighth-place finish in 2014. While others will have their eyes set on securing a top-125 finish in the FedEx Cup to reach the playoffs, Kisner is just outside of the top five, which is an important milestone to reach before the Tour Championship at East Lake.Jeff Bergerson -- Jason Dufner ($7,900)This has been a very consistent year for Dufner as he has only missed two cuts. He has also produced some high finishes, including a win at the Career Builder, T-6 at Dean & Deluca, and T-8 at The U.S Open. He only finished T-51 last year at the Wyndham and didnt play the couple years before that, but did have a T-7 back in 2012. What intrigues me most about Dufner this week is his very attractive salary of $7,900. He is an excellent fit for your cash games as well as large field tournaments (GPPs).Zachary Turcotte -- Kevin Kisner ($8,300)Kisner started his season with four top-10 finishes in his first six starts, including a win at the RSM Classic back in November. He has had just one top-10 finish since then at the Dean & DeLuca Invitational in May. However, it appears that his game is returning to form of late as he has made the cut in five straight events, most of which have been on challenging courses against tougher than average fields. Kisner finished strong last season with solid finishes in the first two FedEx Cup events before trailing off in the Tour Championship, but he has performed well at the Wyndham in previous years.Taras Pitra -- Henrik Norlander ($6,600)Norlander has quietly caught my attention the past few weeks. He ranks fairly highly as a ball striker, and his scoring has been pretty impressive over the past few months; 48 birdies and an eagle in his last three tournaments. Hes paid off his price tag (and then some) over those last three events, and should continue to make it rain golf balls in Greensboro this weekend. I think theres something to be said about watching your fellow countrymen win major championships and silver Olympic medals.Jason Rouslin -- Matt Jones ($6,300)The definition of on the bubble, Jones comes into the last week of the regular season on the PGA Tour ranked 124th. Needing to be in the top 125 to make the playoffs, Jones comes back to a golf course where hes had some success, placing fifth in 2013. I like him to have a strong showing this week, which should solidify his spot in the playoffs. Brad Richardson Jersey . -- Lou Brocks shoulder-to-shoulder collision with Bill Freehan during the 1968 World Series and Pete Roses bruising hit on Ray Fosse in the 1970 All-Star game could become relics of baseball history, like the dead-ball era. Darcy Kuemper Jersey . -- Derrick Rose shook off poor shooting early to hit clutch shots late and Carlos Boozer had 20 points and 13 rebounds to lead the Chicago Bulls to a 104-95 preseason victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday night. https://www.cheapcoyotes.com/638z-peter-mueller-jersey-coyotes.html . The International Olympic Committee released the official list of bid cities on Friday after the deadline for applications had passed. The candidates -- all previously announced in their own countries -- are: Almaty, Kazakhstan; Beijing; Krakow, Poland; Lviv, Ukraine; Oslo, Norway; and Stockholm. Brandon Gormley Jersey . World champions Tatiana Volosozhar and Maxim Trankov of Russia won the gold medal with 237.71 points, Moore-Towers and Moscovitch followed at 208.45 and Ksenia Stolbova and Fedor Klimov of Russia were third at 187. Brendan Perlini Jersey . -- Most satisfying to Russ Smith about No.SOUTHAMPTON, N.Y. -- Inbee Park was mad, even if it didnt show in her always placid demeanour. She had made bogey, her third straight, on a hole she thought she should have birdied, and the worlds top-ranked player was looking a bit shaky. Time for a clutch putt. Park is now one round away from history, leading the U.S. Womens Open by four strokes. She shot 1-under 71 on Saturday in harsh conditions at Sebonack and was 10 under for the tournament. Fellow South Korean I.K. Kim had a 73 to remain in second but lost two strokes to Park. With the wind whipping, the course set up long and the pin placements tricky, Park was the only player to shoot under par in the third round. No one has ever won the first three majors in a year when there were at least four. "Im just going to try to do the same thing that I did for the last three days," Park said. "Yeah, it will be a big day. But its just a round of golf, and I just try not to think about it so much." She wasnt too disappointed by her bogeys on the 11th and 12th; those were tough holes. But on the par-5 13th, her chip on her third shot rolled into the bunker when it should have put her in position for a birdie putt. She still led by three strokes but appeared vulnerable - at least by her recently lofty standards. "That bogey was a bad bogey," Park said, "so after that I really got my concentration going." She was unlucky then lucky on the par-4 14th. She thought her second shot would be pushed back by the wind, but it carried too far and settled on the ridge above the hole. No worries: Park simply holed a 30-foot, downhill putt for birdie. "That was a big putt for me," she said. "Those three bogeys were very tough to handle in the kind of situation that I was in." A hole later, she made a 15-foot birdie putt. It looked as though nobody would break par for the day until she birdied No. 18. Only five players were under par for the tournament. Englands Jodi Ewart Shadoff (74) was third at 3 under. She had to play 21 holes Saturday after the second round was suspended the night before because of fog. Park had good timing Friday: Her group was on the 18th fairway when the horn sounded, so she was able to finish off her round and rest up for the weekend. Maude-Aimee LeBlanc of Sherbrooke, Que., shot her seecond straight 77, and is at 7-over 223.dddddddddddd Brooke Mackenzie Henderson of Smiths Falls, Ont., matched the days high score with an 83, and is at 230. Not a morning person, Ewart Shadoff didnt enjoy waking up at 4:30 a.m. She birdied the 18th hole to earn a spot in the final group with Park and Kim, then took a nap in the four-plus hours between rounds. Ewart Shadoff had a chance to make things interesting on No. 12 with Park on the way to a bogey. But her long birdie putt slid over the hole, and she missed the par putt. Instead of pulling within two strokes of Park, Ewart Shadoff remained four back. Then she bogeyed two of the last three holes. Kim had a double bogey on No. 3 to fall back. She played 2 under the rest of the way, but that one bad hole allowed Park to put some distance between them. "She is playing great. But you never know, I might have a great day tomorrow," Kim said. "So golf is a different thing than other sports. Thats why you play four rounds." If Park shoots even-par or better Sunday, it will be just the fourth time the U.S. Womens Open was won with a score in double digits below par. No wonder Brittany Lincicome joked to reporters, "I think Inbees playing a different golf course, which you guys are unaware of yet." Certainly feels that way. With Park again on a different plane from the rest of the field, the biggest excitement Saturday might have come when Jessica Korda fired her caddie after nine holes and replaced him with her boyfriend. The switch seemed to work: After shooting 5 over on the front nine, Korda was 1 under the rest of the way. She finished with a 76 and was tied for sixth at 1 over, 11 strokes behind Park. The 2008 U.S. Womens Open champion, Park has already won five times this year, including her last two tournaments. "Im just going to think that I.K. and I am tied starting in tomorrows play because anything can happen out here," she said. "I mean, four shots, it could be nothing around this golf course. So I just have to keep pushing myself to make pars. I think par is going to be good enough tomorrow, but Im just going to try to do my best. A lot of thinking going on, a lot of pressure. "But Ive done that before, so I think the experience is going to help me going through it tomorrow." ' ' '
