2025 Fantasy Outlook
After spending four years as a full-time player on the DP World Tour, Valimaki tried his hand on the PGA Tour for the first time and flashed early with a runner-up finish at the Mexico Open. The momentum halted there, however, as he missed six of his next eight cuts and ultimately posted just a pair of top-25s all year. He's not long or straight off the tee and considering he posted a couple of good results this fall overseas, it's possible that the Finnish golfer's game is better suited in Europe.

T18 at RBC Heritage
Valimaki carded a three-under 68 on Sunday at the RBC Heritage to finish nine-under and tied for 18th.
ANALYSIS
Valimaki played his final seven holes of the tournament in four-under-par to salvage his third consecutive top-20 finish dating back to a solo-fourth at the Texas Children's Houston Open, rising to 66th in the FedExCup standings as a result. This past week at Harbour Town, he ranked top-10 among the field in both SG: Approach and Feet of Putts Made. Valimaki will pair with Ben Silverman at the upcoming Zurich Classic of New Orleans.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Valimaki picked up his second DP World Tour win at the Qatar Masters after prevailing in a playoff over Jorge Campillo. That was one of seven top-11 finishes for the Fin to help him lock up a PGA Tour card for 2024. Valimaki was just 29th in SG: Total on the DPWT last season so there is certainly still room to grow across the board at age 25. Retaining his card for 2025 would be a great achievement for this young player.
