2025 Fantasy Outlook
Kanaya is a seven-time winner on the Japan Tour and a former top-ranked amateur in the world. He will be a PGA Tour rookie in 2025 that has already appeared in 11 majors and previously cracked the top-50 of the OWGR. Kanaya got his shot at PGA Tour Q-School and made the most of it by finishing third and earning a card at age 26. There are valid questions on how Kanaya's game will translate to a full season on the PGA Tour, but he is wise beyond his years and is one of the best Japan has to offer. Read Past Outlooks
Top-5 in home country
October 13, 2025
Kanaya fired a nine-under 62 on Sunday at the Baycurrent Classic to finish in a share of fourth place.
ANALYSIS
Kanaya saved his best golf for the final round, getting off to a fast start with four birdies in the first five holes en route to a bogey-free day and the second lowest closing round. He moved up 14 spots on the leaderboard and ranked second for the tournament in driving accuracy and scrambling. Kanaya still has some work to do to keep his Tour card, as he's currently 113th in the FedExCup Fall Standings.
