2025 Fantasy Outlook
Following four consecutive years on the Korn Ferry Tour, Silverman made his return to the PGA Tour and made a respectable 18-of-25 cuts (72 percent) but only turned one of them into a top-10. The Canadian ranked eighth in SG: Putting for the season, and his recipe for success is built on hitting fairways and making putts. Across three seasons on Tour, Silverman has managed only two top-5s, as he's held back by his lack of distance and below average iron play. Fantasy managers are probably best advised to look elsewhere, with Silverman only viable on shorter venues against weaker competition. Read Past Outlooks
Rare putting struggles at ZOZO
Silverman carded a one-over 71 on Sunday at the ZOZO Championship to finish four-under and tied for 46th.
ANALYSIS
Silverman played his final two holes of the tournament in three-under-par, thanks in part to an eagle on the par-5 18th where he made a 28-footer from just off the green. One of the best putters on the PGA Tour, Silverman actually lost strokes with the flat stick throughout his week in Japan, marking his first negative SG: Putting performance since THE CJ CUP Byron Nelson in early May. As a result of his T46 finish, the Canadian dropped four spots to No. 106 in the FedExCup Fall standings.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2018
2017
He's yet to record a single top-5 finish through his first 62 career PGA Tour starts, but Silverman found the winner's circle on the Korn Ferry Tour this past season at The Bahamas Great Abaco Classic back in January, and he finished the 2023 KFT campaign with just two missed cuts in 17 events played. The 36-year-old Canadian led the KFT in par-4 scoring, aided by a ranking of ninth in putting average. However, Silverman's past struggles against stronger competition indicate a low ceiling for his 2024 projection.
