2025 Fantasy Outlook
Rai had a career year in 2024 going 21-for-25 with six top-10s and 13 top-25s. He also collected his first career PGA Tour victory at the Wyndham Championship. It was part of a red hot stretch that included four top-seven finishes in five starts. Rai ranked sixth last season in SG: Total led by his terrific iron play. The Englishman was seventh in SG: Approach and ninth in GIR percentage. He also led the PGA Tour in driving accuracy. Given his ball-striking numbers, if Rai is able to have a good week on the greens he is going to find himself in the mix. It's probably unlikely he reaches his earnings total from 2024, but Rai's floor remains pretty respectable. Read Past Outlooks
Misses cut by one in Fort Worth
Rai recorded a 36-hole score of one-over-par to miss the cut at the Charles Schwab Challenge by one shot.
ANALYSIS
Rai lost four strokes putting throughout his two rounds at Colonial Country Club, and he's now lost strokes with the flat stick in five of his last six starts dating back to the Texas Children's Houston Open. However, the Englishman gained 3.1 strokes ball striking in Fort Worth, and he's up to 19th on Tour in SG: Tee-to-Green this season. Rai now heads to Muirfield Village for his third career Memorial Tournament appearance, having previously finished T26-MC here in 2022 and 2023.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2022
Rai is coming off a respectable second season on Tour in which he once again qualified for the playoffs. He primarily turned his attention to the DP World Tour this past fall, posting three top-10s across five events, most notably at T-2 result at the marquee BMW PGA Championship. The 28-year-old is an accurate driver and solid iron player (35th in strokes-gained approach) that is capable of having an even better third season if he can improve his putting. Rai's other downside is that he's not very long (151st in driving distance), but it wouldn't be a surprise to see him in contention often on shorter setups.
