With the PGA Tour deciding to offer a one-and-done fantasy golf platform starting in 2017, as well the increasing number of private one-and-done leagues, we here at Golf News Net will offer weekly one-and-done fantasy golf picks separate from our weekly fantasy golf rankings and picks.

We began with the 2017 SBS Tournament of Champions in Hawaii, continue to the 2017 Travelers Championship this week and will work through the Tour Championship in Atlanta in September, keeping track of our picks all along the way.

First, before we begin, if you're not familiar with game, read this primer on the one-and-done fantasy golf format, and welcome to the game. It really is as easy as it sounds, but you have to take a long-term view of the season to figure out how best to use players.

Damn it, DJ! We waited all year to use you, and then you miss the cut at the US Open? That was a potential year-killer, but the good news is we have two more majors and a slew of FedEx Cup playoff events, the four of which are even more important to the PGA Tour's one-and-done game. Let's dust ourselves off in Hartford!

2017 Travelers Championship One and Done picks

  • Charley Hoffman: Odds are, you've blown Charley already. But he was great in the Open and has a great Hartford record.
  • Brendan Steele: You probably used Steele in Texas. If you didn't, he's also a great player here and on form.
  • Bubba Watson: Hartford is elixir for Bubba. Two Ws there. However, his form is mercurial, so you'd be taking a sizable gamble.
  • Marc Leishman: Leish was spectacular at the Open, too, and he's converted great play into a Travelers win.

My pick this week will be Marc Leishman. I love the Aussie at TPC River Highlands.
