Co-sanctioned with the KPGA TOUR, a field comprising 90 DP World Tour players and 36 from the KPGA TOUR have gathered at Woo Jeong Hills Country Club in Cheonan - a new venue for the DP World Tour.

Occupying a prime position on the DP World Tour’s Global Schedule, the event will give DP World Tour members their final opportunities to qualify for a place in the DP World Tour Play-offs, taking place in Abu Dhabi and Dubai, and to retain their playing rights for the 2026 Race to Dubai.

Joining defending champion Byeong Hun An are fellow home favourites Sungjae Im and Si Woo Kim, while former Masters champions Hideki Matsuyama and Adam Scott are among the international field.

Among others teeing it up are Thomas Detry, who became the first Belgian to win on the PGA TOUR earlier this year at the WM Pheonix Open, and DP World Tour winners Laurie Canter, Angel Hidalgo, Pablo Larrazábal, Keita Nakajima and Elvis Smylie.

From insight into the week’s most-picked players among Fantasy managers, to our ones to watch, we run the rule ahead of Thursday’s deadline to pick your team.

Who are the most picked players?

Former Masters Tournament winner Hideki Matsuyama is the player selected in most teams, picked by 87% of players.

Presidents Cup teammates and home favourites Si Woo Kim and Sungjae Im are then second and third, selected by 80% and 69% of players.

Adam Scott, another former Masters champion, is fourth at 54%, with defending champion Byeong Hun An rounding out the top five at 43%.

Who are our ones to watch?

Here, we pick out three players in action this week who are worth considering for your Fantasy team selections.

Favourite - Hideki Masuyama

The World Number 18 from Japan is the top-ranked player in the field this week, bidding for his second title of 2025 after winning The Sentry, the calendar-year opening event on the PGA TOUR. After that success in Hawaii, he went without a top ten but did register seven top 20s on his way to reaching the Tour Championship. Since then, he impressed during the opening two days at the BMW PGA Championship before his challenge faded over the weekend at Wentworth. In his most recent outing, he finished in a tie for 20th at the PGA TOUR's Baycurrent Classic on home soil.

Form Horse - Joakim Lagergren

However this week and the upcoming DP World Tour Play-Offs pan out, the Swede is set to celebrate a career-best finish on the Race to Dubai. A runner-up in both the Netherlands and Ireland this season, the 33-year-old has had a further three top tens - the most recent of which came at the Open de España presented by Madrid two weeks ago. He may still harbour hopes of securing dual membership with the PGA TOUR too before the season is out.

Wild Card - Casey Jarvis

The South African impressed in his rookie season last year, making 34 appearances as he reached the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship - the opening event of the DP World Tour Play-Offs. A graduate of the HotelPlanner Tour in 2023, the 22-year-old has found things tougher this year on the DP World Tour but should be bouyed by finishing in a tie for 17th to all but ensure his status for another season. So, with nothing to lose, he may now have in his sights a big finish to the regular season to try and seal another season-end appearance in the Middle East.

Looking back - DP World India Championship

As the second-highest ranked player in the field it was no surprise to see Tommy Fleetwood was one of the most picked players last week.

Selected by 8,993 players (26.73%), he won 251 points, with 4,471 of you selecting him as your captain.

Our Favourite Rory McIlroy - the Race to Dubai leader - finished in a tie for 26th, alongside Wild Card Andreas Halvorsen, while Form Horse Angel Ayora missed the cut by one shot.
