Nick Borrman suggested considering Keith Mitchell for THE PLAYERS Championship due to his exceptional performance on Bermuda greens. Mitchell expressed his confidence and love for this time of year, stating he's aiming to win THE PLAYERS because he's so good on Bermuda surfaces. Borrman highlighted Mitchell's familiarity and success on these greens, making him a potentially valuable betting option for the tournament.

Redkacheek said Keith Mitchell is his pick in the low 9K range because Mitchell scores well from 150 to 200 yards while retaining elite off-the-tee stats. Though his overall approach metrics look just average, Mitchell’s under-par scoring in mid-to-long iron ranges should be a difference-maker at PGA National.

Derek Farnsworth spoke highly of Keith Mitchell’s form and ball-striking entering the Cognizant Classic. He emphasized Mitchell’s top-5 ranking in strokes gained off the tee and top-20 in strokes gained approach this season. Farnsworth pointed to Mitchell’s recent consistency with finishes of T33 or better in four 2025 starts, each time gaining at least 1.9 strokes off the tee. With bermudagrass being Mitchell’s best putting surface and good vibes from his 2019 win at PGA National, Farnsworth sees Mitchell as a strong wager if his short game remains steady.

Len Hochberg recommended Keith Mitchell based on his fifth-ranked tee-to-green game and proven success at PGA National, where he won in 2019 and followed up with consecutive T9 finishes. Hochberg also noted Mitchell’s improved putting this season, bolstering his profile as a high-upside DFS option on this demanding course.

Iain MacMillan said he is picking Keith Mitchell at +3500 for his ability to hit greens, scramble well, and avoid bogeys. Mitchell ranks 14th, 3rd, and 3rd in those categories, respectively, is a past winner at PGA National, and has notched top-10 finishes in his most recent appearances here.

Alex Hunter suggested Keith Mitchell as a top-30 finish bet at the Cognizant Classic, pointing to his strong 2025 form and past success at PGA National. Mitchell has finishes of T30, T21, T33, and T25 in his first four events this season, shooting over par only once in 16 rounds. He ranks 16th in SGT2G and won his lone PGA TOUR title at this venue in 2019. With back-to-back T9 results at PGA National, including a 6-under 65 closing round last year, Hunter believes Mitchell’s history here and consistent ball-striking make him a prime bet at +115 for a top-30 finish.

Sia Nejad recommended looking at Keith Mitchell in DFS lineups if his ownership is projected to be low. Nejad highlighted Mitchell’s strong course history—he won here in 2019 and has posted back-to-back top-10 finishes more recently. He also noted Mitchell’s steady ball striking and passable putting, emphasizing that a lower-owned Mitchell could create a valuable contrarian upside in tournaments.

Savannah Leigh Richardson highlighted Keith Mitchell’s strength in avoiding bogeys and scrambling—key traits at PGA National. Mitchell’s worst finish this season is a T33 at Pebble Beach, and though he lacks a top-10 in 2025, he recently posted a T25 (WM Phoenix Open) and T21 (American Express). As a past champion in 2019 who has logged two more top-10s here, Richardson believes his +280 odds for a top-10 finish are attractive.

Jason Rouslin recommends drafting Keith Mitchell over Max Greyserman, noting that Mitchell is a better golfer and questioning the 25-pick ADP gap between them. Mitchell is expected to play more events, enhancing his fantasy value.

Jason Rouslin advised drafting Keith Mitchell in rounds 6-10 of the PGA Best Ball Scramble. Mitchell is expected to play in non-signature events like the Mexico Open and the Palm Beach Classic, as well as the Sony Open, American Express, Farmers Insurance Open, and Waste Management Phoenix Open. Rouslin believes Mitchell will provide consistent scoring during weeks when top-tier players may be absent.
