Nico Echavarria

31-Year-Old Golfer
2025 Fantasy Outlook
It's difficult to find a golfer whose stock rose more during the FedExCup Fall, as Echavarria went from battling for his Tour card to winning the ZOZO Championship in Japan to lock up his status through 2026 and punching his first ever trip to The Masters. The win doesn't appear just to be a flash in the pan, either, as the second-year Tour pro went on to post top-10s in two of his final three events including a shared runner-up in Sea Island. Echavarria's ceiling could be limited as he's not the longest driver, but he's a quality long-iron player and putter which should keep him on his upward trajectory next season. Read Past Outlooks
Places ninth in Japan
October 14, 2025
Echavarria closed with a four-under 67 on Sunday at the Baycurrent Classic to finish 13-under and alone in ninth place.
ANALYSIS
Echavarria racked up six final-round birdies at Yokohama Country Club despite losing 2.56 strokes on approach Sunday, hitting 14 of 15 fairways in regulation while gaining 2.39 strokes with the putter as well. He ended the week ranked top-10 among the field in both scrambling and putts per GIR en route to 18 total par-breakers. Bouncing back from a missed cut at the Procore Championship, Echavarria improves five spots to No. 63 in the FedExCup Fall standings.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Echavarria secured three top-25 finishes, including a win, in his debut season on the PGA Tour. His victory came at the 2023 Puerto Rico Open, but beyond that event, Echavarria faced challenges, making only five out of 28 cuts with an average finish ranking beyond the top-85. The 29-year-old is a below-average performer inn all facets of the game, significantly trailing his peers in all shots-gained metrics.
The 28-year-old Colombian played his collegiate golf at the University of Arkansas before eventually appearing in 90 Korn Ferry Tour events since 2019, tallying 18 total top-25 finishes in the process. Perhaps none were more important than his T5 at the Korn Ferry Tour Championship, however, which earned him a PGA Tour card for the first time. Echavarria ranked eighth on the KFT in putting average and 16th in par-4 scoring.
