2025 Fantasy Outlook
Thorbjornsen is fully exempt for the 2025 season after topping the 2024 PGA Tour University Rankings. Following a standout senior season at Stanford, Thorbjornsen would take his talents the the PGA Tour and make 11 starts to close the year. While there was some expected inconsistency, Thorbjornsen showed he has the talent to compete at the highest level racking up a T2 at the John Deere Classic before finishing 2024 with a pair of T8 finishes in his last three starts. While he didn't have enough starts to be eligible, he would have ranked top-five on Tour last season in driving distance and in the top-10 in GIR percentage. Thorbjornsen has also proved to be a strong putter gaining strokes on the greens in his last five starts in 2024. While the talent is very exciting, expectations need to be properly managed as a full season on the PGA Tour is quite the grind for a young player. Read Past Outlooks
T4 in return from wrist injury
June 29, 2025
Thorbjornsen (wrist) closed with a five-under 67 on Sunday to finish in a share of fourth place at the Rocket Classic.
ANALYSIS
Expectations had to be low this week given it was Thorbjornsen's first start since the PGA Championship due to a wrist injury. You would have never known he was a bit rusty given his play this week tallying rounds of 65-67-68-67. It ended up being just one shot shy of joining a playoff with Aldrich Potgieter, Max Greyserman and Chris Kirk. The former Stanford standout ranked top-10 for the week in SG: Around-the-Green, SG: Putting and driving distance. The 23-year-old has a lot of potential and will continue to grow as he gets more comfortable on the PGA Tour. Thorbjornsen will tee it up at the John Deere Classic next week.
