2025 Fantasy Outlook
Following a rookie season in which he qualified for the playoffs, Stevens wasn't able to replicate the same success in 2024. He only managed three top-10s, one of which came in a team event and the other two against weaker fields. He even dropped down to the Korn Ferry Tour for one event in the summer, finishing one shot back. His stats indicate that there's potential for a breakout - he was 47th in total strokes gained and 17th off the tee, but it hasn't materialized yet. His iron play is his only weakness, and entering just his third season on Tour, his future still appears bright. Read Past Outlooks
Third place finish at Byron Nelson
May 4, 2025
Stevens closed with a seven-under 64 in the final round of THE CJ CUP Byron Nelson to finish in solo third place.
ANALYSIS
Stevens might have finished third, but he was three back of Erik van Rooyen in second and 11 back from Scottie Scheffler who won. He shot at least six-under in every round besides a one-under 70 on Saturday when he lost some ground. Stevens had an excellent putting week gaining nearly 8.4 strokes on the greens, good enough for third-best in the field. This was the second top-10 of the season for Stevens to go along with his runner-up at the Farmers Insurance Open. He did enough to make the Truist Championship next week via the Aon Swing 5.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Stevens' rookie campaign featured a good start to the year with four top-15s over a seven tournament stretch, highlighted by a runner-up finish at the Valero Texas Open. However, he only recorded one top-25 finish over his final 20 events. The strengh of his game is cleary his length as he averaged 310 yards off-the-tee last season. However, he's pretty wild with his driver and is a below average iron player and putter. He'll need to improve a bit in each of those areas, otherwise he may be relegated back to the Korn Ferry Tour in 2025.
Stevens made the cut in 18 of 23 events played on the Korn Ferry Tour in 2022, but it was his clutch T12 at the KFT Championship that earned him a PGA Tour card for 2022-23. He ultimately ranked third among his KFT peers in GIR percentage and 12th in ball striking, but just 74th in par-5 scoring. Sanders managed to make the cut in each of his two starts at the PGA Tour level earlier this year, placing T55 at the Honda Classic and T49 at the U.S. Open in his major championship debut.
