25-Year-Old Golfer

2025 Fantasy Outlook
Thompson had a career year in 2024 ranking top-10 in both SG: Total and adjusted scoring average on the PGA Tour to go along with notching his first win at the John Deere Classic. Thompson also had two runner-up results as well and totaled 13 top-25 finishes. Usually one of the last things that comes along for young players is the short game, but the 25-year-old has some of the best hands on Tour ranking fifth in SG: Around-the-Green. Thompson also has the power, precision with the irons and putting stroke to make him be successful on the PGA Tour for a long time to come. It would not be shocking to see Thompson put together an even bigger season in 2025 and maybe even make the U.S. Ryder Cup team at Bethpage. Read Past Outlooks
MC at PGA Championship
May 19, 2025
Thompson recorded a 36-hole score of six-over-par to miss the cut at the PGA Championship by five shots.
ANALYSIS
Thompson lost strokes across the board and converted only six of 19 scrambling opportunities throughout his two rounds at Quail Hollow, where he ultimately missed his first cut since the Arnold Palmer Invitational in early March. Thompson will look to bounce back at Colonial Country Club this week where he tied for 17th in his Charles Schwab Challenge debut here last year.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Thompson had an excellent start to his rookie season with two top-15s in his first three events and a runner-up finish at The American Express in January. The momentum stalled from there, however, as he failed to record a top-10 the rest of the year. The 24-year-old is fueled by his driving play, as he is long off-the-tee (31st in driving distance) and fairly accurate having ranked 90th in driving accuracy. Considering the other areas of his game are all around Tour average, some slight improvements across the board along with a year under his belt on the main stage could lead to an improved second season.
Ranking fourth on the Korn Ferry Tour in total driving and 14th in ball striking, Thompson finished 14th on the regular season points list and he won early-June's REX Hospital Open to secure his maiden PGA Tour card. The 23-year-old University of Georgia product retains rookie eligibility despite 13 career starts at the PGA Tour level, notably notching a top-25 as an amateur at the 2019 RSM Classic. He's a former No. 1 player in the Amateur World Golf Ranking and was twice named first-team All-American in college. The 6-foot-4, 195-pounder profiles as a potential ROY candidate if the short game cooperates against tougher competition.
