This Sunday, Draftkings golf fans will be presented with the final round of the 2025 Truist Championship. Let’s take a look at the final round of this event from a DFS perspective.

Before I discuss my Draftkings DFS player selections let’s review where the final round of the Truist Championship will be played.

The 2025 Truist Championship will be played at the Philadelphia Cricket Club (Wissahickon Course) in Flourtown, Pennsylvania. The golf course is a par 70 that measures approximately 7,119 yards.

*This event is traditionally played at the Quail Hollow Golf Club in Charlotte, North Carolina. However, Quail Hollow is the host golf course for next week’s 2025 PGA Championship.

I wanted to emphasize that the purpose of this article is not to provide an exact DFS lineup.

Having stated that, this article will provide multiple player options in an effort to assist the reader in generating a unique lineup that will hopefully have the potential to win a DraftKings GPP (guaranteed prize pool) contest! Keep that in mind as you construct your lineups for this DFS slate.

For those readers that are not aware, the rules and scoring for DraftKings single round showdown contests are vastly different than the traditional classic contests offered by the platform.

If you need to review the specific rules for the single round showdown contests feel free to check out the DraftKings website.

Here are my DraftKings player selections for the final round of the 2025 Truist Championship.

Draftkings Truist Championship Final Round Picks

Shane Lowry $9,000

Since the beginning of February, Shane Lowry has played eight events on the PGA Tour. In those eight tournaments just mentioned, Lowry has compiled a rather impressive six top 18 finishes, including an eighth-place result at the 2025 Valspar Championship in March.

Shane Lowry certainly checks the box for me when it comes to key player statistics. Let me be more specific. Lowry is currently ranked 11th in strokes gained approach (0.684), 12th in proximity to the hole (35’1), sixth in total strokes gained (1.426), 11th in scrambling (67.13%) and 14th in par three scoring average (2.98) on the PGA Tour.

What did we learn from the data just presented? Clearly, Shane Lowry is playing at a high-level entering tomorrow’s final round. With that said, I am backing Shane Lowry as my lead DFS selection for the final round of the 2025 Truist Championship.

Upon the completion of this afternoon’s third round of the 2025 Truist Championship, Shane Lowry is currently tied for first place with a three round cumulative score of 14 under par.

Justin Thomas $10,600

Justin Thomas has compiled three top nine finishes in his last six tournaments played on the PGA Tour, including a win at the 2025 RBC Heritage three weeks ago.

Thomas is currently ranked seventh in strokes gained approach (0.852), 20th in strokes gained putting (0.459), second in par four scoring average (3.93), first in birdie or better percentage (27.78%) and eighth in total birdies made (192) on the PGA Tour.

Jacob Bridgeman $6,500

Jacob Bridgeman has amassed three top 15 finishes in his last six events played on the PGA Tour, including a second-place result at the 2025 Cognizant Classic in the Palm Beaches.

Bridgeman enters tomorrow’s final round in a tie for 11th with a four round cumulative score of seven under par.
