For example, if DraftKings Player A and DraftKings Player B tied in the daily game, and Player A's highest fantasy point scoring player was Jordan Speith with 160 fantasy points, and Player B's highest fantasy point scoring player was Rickie Fowler with 134 fantasy points, then Player A would be judged the winner.
