2025 Fantasy Outlook
The 29-year-old Oklahoma State University product has earned a PGA Tour card for the first time since 2020-21, finishing 24th on the Korn Ferry Tour's 2024 Points List thanks in large part to a runner-up effort at the Argentina Open back in early March, where he lost in a playoff. He ultimately ranked eighth on the KFT in GIR percentage and 10th in total driving, notching 10 top-25s throughout 23 total starts. Read Past Outlooks

Logs best PGA Tour finish
January 25, 2025
Ventura finished in a share of fourth place at the Farmers Insurance Open after shooting a one-under 71 in the final round.
ANALYSIS
Ventura picked up his best finish on Tour with a very solid final round in tough condition that included just one bogey and birdies on two of the last five holes. Ventura's ball-striking was not the greatest, but he ranked fourth in SG: Around-the-Green, third in scrambling and 14th in SG: Putting. He just missed qualifying for the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am via the Aon Swing 5, but he should return to action at the WM Phoenix Open the following week.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2020
2019
Ventura has a nice combination of above-average length off-the-tee and great putting but that only translated to a best finish of T18 last year. He also struggled to get into a lot of Tour events late in the year, with four starts on each the PGA and Korn Ferry Tour's since the re-start of play. Ventura is young and did win twice on the Korn Ferry Tour in 2019, but he's probably still a couple of years away from being relevant on the PGA Tour.
Ventura broke 70 in just two of eight rounds at the PGA Tour level throughout the 2018-19 season, but he enjoyed a successful Korn Ferry Tour campaign that included wins at the Utah Championship and Pinnacle Bank Championshp to accompany a pair of third-place finishes at the BMW Charity Pro-Am and WinCo Foods Portland Open as well. Despite appearing in just nine events, Ventura managed to rank fourth in the KFT's Regular Season Points List as he positioned himself comfortably inside of the OWGR's top-200 by mid-August. Ventura is linked to rising star Viktor Hovland as the Norwegian duo each enjoyed successful collegiate careers as Oklahoma State Cowboys before turning professional.
