TROON, Scotland -- Heres an updated weather forecast for the next four days at the 145th Open Championship: It might rain. It might not be the kind of light, fluffy rain that feels refreshing on a lazy afternoon, either. It might be hard, heavy droplets pounding down from the heavens that force everyone to run for cover. Or it might not even feel like its barreling down from the sky, instead swept up by the wind and forming the type of sideways rain that so often permeates this golf tournament. It might do this for an extended period of time every day. It might keep going, too, day and night, through the end of the weekend, until a rain-soaked, waterlogged champion is eventually awarded the Claret Jug.Or it might not.The reality is that predicting the weather here remains a bigger mystery than trying to extricate oneself from the Coffin Bunker. Its more inconsistent than a 20-handicappers putting stroke (and sometimes uglier). It might be nasty all morning then warm and sunny all afternoon. It might rain for five minutes, then turn to sun, then to wind. Wash, rinse, repeat. In perhaps the most quizzical scenario, it might be totally calm on the first tee and completely bonkers on the ninth green. At the same time.That was the case last year, when much of Saturdays round at the Old Course was suspended due to overly windy conditions on the far end of the course, while thousands of spectators spent the day reveling in sunshine and a light breeze throughout the town of St. Andrews. With all due respect to Bob Dylan, there were more questions than answers blowin in the wind.Royal Troon sports similar physical characteristics to St Andrews, in that the outward nine holes all face to the east, meaning players make the turn at the furthest part of the property from the clubhouse, then literally turn around and head inwardly west, into what is the prevailing wind.As for the official weather outlook, heres the beginning of the forecast for each of the four tournament days:Thursday: Fine and mainly dry with some sunshine throughout the day...(Well, that doesnt sound too bad.)Friday: Mostly cloudy with rain at times ...(A bit vague, but we can work with this.)Saturday: Details remain uncertain at present...(Hey, nothing like a little honesty.)Sunday: Like Saturday, details remain uncertain...(OK, lets call it brutal honesty.)What we do know -- or at least, what we think we know -- is that this weeks weather wont be the worst in recent Open Championship memory.The worst Open weather Ive ever played in was 2002 at Muirfield, Colin Montgomerie said this week, echoing the sentiment of anyone else in that field. That was horrific.The third round that year was contested in pouring rain, heavy wind and chilled temperatures. The lasting image of that day was Tiger Woods, in the thick of his prime, posting his lone birdie on the 17th hole then dramatically raising his arms and taking a sarcastic bow on his way to shooting an 81.I regret scoring 74 on the second day, because that put me out late in the awful weather, Monty said with a smile. But that was the worst ever. I had lost circulation by the fifth hole. I had sent in for -- I was with Callaway -- you know these big, big mitts in July. Whats going on? It was crazy.For those who werent around 14 years ago, the tournament which provided the worst conditions that youll remember was a major, but not this one.Just three years ago, the second round of the PGA Championship at Oak Hill Country Club was plagued by a furious storm that never halted play.Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano refused to hit the tee shot on 18, because there was standing water on the teebox, let alone the greens, Jordan Spieth remembered. But they werent blowing the horn. We couldnt even see the fairway, it was raining so hard. But we played through it.Even Shane Lowry, from the not-so-warm-and-sunny country of Ireland, agreed with this assessment. I was one of the first groups out on Friday morning, and it was just brutal weather, he said. That was probably the worst rain and the worst wind I played.That might not happen this week. There might not be any sideways rain or enough wind to barely keep the flagsticks in the holes. We might not witness any world-class players shooting 81, then bowing sarcastically to the crowd. The weather might not be as ugly as possible.Then again, it might. Hey, its still early. And as they say, details remain uncertain.

The PGA Tours regular season is over, and weve reached the FedEx Cup. The top 125 players on tour will now compete for the top spot and the title of FedEx Cup champion for 2016. That all starts at The Barclays, held at the Black Course at Bethpage State Park.Our DFS golf experts have put together the players they believe have the skills to succeed and provide big fantasy point totals. This weeks panel is comprised of Bob Harig, Jason Sobel, Michael Collins, Jonathan Coachman and David Jayne, as well as FantasyGolfInsiders Jeff Bergerson, Zach Turcotte, Taras Pitra and Jason Rouslin.Note: Golfer salaries listed are for DraftKings.Jason Sobel -- Phil Mickelson ($9,700)Two reasons: One, he loves Bethpage Black, with runner-up finishes in the two U.S. Opens contested there; and two, at this point in his career, there isnt much new ground left for Lefty to break, but a FedEx Cup title has him pretty jazzed for the end of the season. Fresh off his longest summer break in two decades, expect Mickelson to get the playoffs started with a renewed sense of purpose, beginning with this weeks opener.Michael Collins -- Dustin Johnson ($11,900)After missing his first cut of the year at the PGA Championship, we have seen neither hide nor hare of the U.S. Open champ except some Instagram posts from his baby mama lighting up interweb trolls. Bethpage Black is everything that suits DJs game and now hes rested and relaxed coming into this week. To steal a line from Samuel L. Jackson in the first Jurassic Park, Hold on to your butts.Jonathan Coachman -- Jason Day ($12,400)Bethpage Black is a big boys golf course. There are a lot of holes that have long carries and long approach shots. That eliminates a majority of the field from making a run at a win. Day gets motivated this time of year and his performance this summer has him simmering. There is no Ryder Cup for the Australian Day, so these next four tournaments are his swan song. And my man wants to sing.Bob Harig -- Jason Day ($12,400)The defending champion won at a different course last year, but hes more than suited to perform well on brutish Bethpage Black. Ranked No. 1 in the world, Day should also benefit from a three-week break following his runner-up finish at the PGA Championship.David Jayne -- Keegan Bradley ($7,600)Bradley is in solid form coming in with six consecutive made cuts with three top-25 finishes, and needs to play well to improve his current 106th place standing in the FedEx CCup.dddddddddddd Hes got plenty of distance off the tee to handle this longer track. Weve seen poor putters succeed here (Lucas Glover at the 2009 U.S. Open, for example), as this municipal course features fairly flat greens, and Keegan certainly has struggled since the switch to the short putter. Finally, hes had plenty of experience playing this course dating back to his days at St. Johns when he and his teammates would get to sneak onto the course and play it while it was closed.Jeff Bergerson -- Russell Knox ($7,300)Over the past three months, Knox has been a model of consistency, but also has flashed upside. He has a win last time out at the Travelers, a T-10 at the Scottish Open, and a runner-up finish at the Irish Open. Knox is not incredibly long off the tee, but he is elite when it comes to hitting greens, ranking second on tour. His $7,300 price-tag is so low for consistency and upside, that I will have him in my cash game and GPP lineups.Zachary Turcotte -- Ryan Palmer ($5,900)With a field of only around 120 players, the event will play like an invitational with close to 2/3 of the field getting through the cut. An aggressive strategy is important for GPP events, as you really want a lineup loaded with potential stars. Ryan Palmer at a salary of $5,900 represents a lot of value. Hes long enough off the tee to handle Bethpage Black, he has played well here before (24th in 2012) and has missed just three cuts in 20 starts this season. Using Palmer as a cut maker with upside gives us a lot of room to work with when building the rest of our roster.Taras Pitra -- Jim Furyk ($8,600)If you missed it on Sunday, Justin Ray of the Golf Channel put out a tweet stating In Jim Furyks last 95 holes, he has hit 86 greens in regulation which equals 90.5 percent. Thats an absurd amount of greens hit, especially for Mr. 58. I really like how he sets up, considering hes a known plodder and this course demands patience from start to finish.Jason Rouslin -- Luke Donald ($7,500)A guy that might be peaking at the right time, Donald enters The Barclays coming off of a second-place finish at the Wyndham. This week he returns to Bethpage where he found success in 2012, coming in 10th. Luke already has a FedEx Cup in his trophy case, is trying to get hot at the right time and secure his spot in the Tour Championship.
