PGA Tour one-and-done is perhaps the best fantasy golf game, with season-long leagues that give players a chance to pick one player for each tournament in the league season.
Once again in 2026, we offer weekly PGA Tour one-and-done golf picks for leagues of all kinds, including survivor leagues where the selected player must make the cut for the entry to continue to the next tournament.
We continue our 2026 PGA Tour one-and-done picks with the 2026 the Memorial Tournament, concluding at the 2026 Tour Championship, keeping track of our picks all along the way.
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.
This week, we have the the Memorial Tournament, with the PGA Tour heading back to Muirfield Village for Jack's event, where he sets it up like a 1980s US Open with long rough and nasty conditions.

It's the Memorial Tournament week, and the 72-player field this week is taking on a test that will get under your skin because sometimes good shots are penalized and the rough is pretty brutal.
Every player is going to find the rough, sometimes even after a good tee shot. A player has to accept that and have the strength to battle through it.
We pretty much had it pegged last week, and Ben Griffin did his job last week. Now, it feels like a time to go after Scottie Scheffler is you're not using him for the US Open.
2026 the Memorial Tournament One and Done picks
- Scottie Scheffler: He's the two-time defending champion, and he's finished outside the top three once in his last five tournaments.
- Matt Fitzpatrick: Fitz has a somewhat surprisingly good record here, and while he's cooled down, he's still a good fit.
- Rickie Fowler: Fowler didn't have it at Colonial, but he's had it at Memorial in the last five years.
- Si Woo Kim: SWK has been enjoying one of his best seasons, and he's the second-best horse-for-course play this week.
My pick this week is Matt Fitzpatrick.
