2026 Fantasy Outlook
Hirata opened his 2025 Korn Ferry Tour campaign with a runner-up effort at The Bahamas Great Abaco Classic, and he also posted a mid-summer stretch of T3-T2 at the NV5 Invitational and the Utah Championship to secure a top-20 position on the Points List. As a result, the 25-year-old out of Japan will become a PGA Tour rookie in 2026, though his underlying KFT metrics were relatively pedestrian aside from a 71.25 FIR percentage. Read Past Outlooks
T6 finish on PGA Tour
Hirata fired a four-under 66 in the final round of the ZOZO Championship to finish in a share of sixth place.
ANALYSIS
With this finish, Hirata earns an exemption into the next PGA Tour event in two weeks, the World Wide Technology Championship in Mexico. Hirata has two wins on the Japan Tour this year, but this showing proves that he can compete with some of the best players in the world. Hirata ranked fourth in GIR's for the week.
