PGA TOUR Experts Unveil 2026 Byron Nelson Picks as Fantasy Game Adds 4-Starters Format

PGA TOUR experts published betting and fantasy selections for THE CJ CUP Byron Nelson, highlighting Blades Brown Top 20 at +220, Brooks Koepka Top 20 at +122 and Jordan Spieth first-round Top 10 at +355.
The picks arrive with 2026 updates to PGA TOUR Fantasy Golf, where users now set four starters, name a captain for bonus points and can rotate two bench players after each round.
Brown drew the strongest consensus support because a solo 21st or better would secure Special Temporary Membership, while Ryo Hisatsune was backed as top Japanese player at -106.
The rollout also doubles as a public-engagement push: fans can join the free PGA TOUR Experts league and compare lineups with staff picks throughout the tournament.
