Welcome to daily fantasy golf coverage for the 2015 U.S. Open. This will mark the second Millionaire Maker event for DraftKings this season. In its first iteration, a player with a single entry out of the nearly 125,000 entries was able to take home the first-place prize for himself. To top that off, he won the entry on a $5 qualifier. Meanwhile, the second place player was none other than "maxdalury," the top-ranked daily fantasy player in the world. He had the maximum number of entries for the event with 999 and for his work claimed the second-place prize of $100,000.

It was the perfect contest of both luck and skill, although there might be a little more weight on the luck portion in an event of this size. The first-place lineup was literally the perfect lineup for the week. No other combination of players on a roster could have outscored the winning team, which leads us to a few important conclusions on strategy for next week. We are here to guide you through all the important statistics and course nuances to research and to highlight the players we feel will have the best opportunity to succeed and hopefully help you to win the biggest prize in fantasy golf.
