Gannon called Justin Lower a ‘great play’ at $6,400, pointing out the veteran’s track record on expansive, birdie-heavy layouts. Lower’s best PGA results have come when a driver-wedge game rules the day, and that is exactly what TPC Twin Cities demands. With water lurking on half the holes, Lower’s combination of controlled length and streaky putting gives him both make-the-cut safety and cheap scoring upside, making him an ideal salary-saver in balanced DFS builds.

Gannon added Justin Lower at 250-to-1, sticking to his season-long thesis that Lower pops on courses that are both lengthy and demand relentless birdie conversion. The American is fresh off the best approach week of his PGA career at the ISCO, suggesting the irons are heating up right as the Tour hits another driver-wedge venue. Lower is notoriously streaky, piling good finishes together once confidence takes hold, and Gannon sees last week’s ball-striking spike as the possible spark. With a diluted field and oversized odds, he views Lower as an ideal outright lottery ticket and a sub-1% DFS flyer.

Matt Gannon circled Justin Lower as his preferred bottom-of-the-6K pick. Lower’s best results come on big, relatively easy tracks where 20-under wins, and Gannon argued Detroit fits that template. Lower ranks inside the top third of the field in par-5 birdie rate and owns an above-average putter on bent/poa mixes. At sub-3 percent projected ownership, Gannon views him as a salary-saving one-percenter who can rack up DraftKings points if the putter stays neutral.

Matt Gannon said Justin Lower is his preferred last-man-in at $6,900. Lower just punched his ticket through Columbus U.S. Open qualifying on Monday, giving him a confidence jolt and affirming that the swing is dialed. Gannon likes this course fit—players must strike mid-to-long irons after accurate drives, an area where Lower has gained 0.40 strokes per round over his last 12 measured events. Sliding Lower in leaves roughly $1k in salary on the table, creating unique roster construction without sacrificing cut-made equity. Gannon framed him as the safest upside punt in the high-6k tier for large-field DFS contests.

McDonald labeled the Justin Lower / Chad Ramey duo his favorite long‑shot at 100‑1. Ramey rolls in with finishes of T5 at the Valero Texas Open and T18 at Corales, gaining over five strokes on the greens combined. Lower, who ‘tends to pop up on leaderboards,’ ranks inside the top‑15 in one‑putt percentage this season. McDonald notes they could be one of the three best putting teams in the field, a critical edge in a tournament where birdie‑fests in four‑ball decide the title. If they hover near −12 after the opening two rounds, he believes their flat‑stick advantage makes them dangerous over the weekend.
