2024 Fantasy Outlook

Olesen was thought to have a lot of upside roughly about a decade ago, and while he never really lived up to that, he still has turned out a nice career at age 33 with seven DP World Tour wins after his victory at the Thailand Classic in February. That being said he has not made a cut at a major since the 2019 Open Championship. Olesen ranked fourth on the DPWT last season in SG: Tee-to-Green, which certainly will play to his benefit on a little more demanding setups on the PGA Tour, but don't set exepectations too high here.

T3 showing in Abu Dhabi

November 11, 2024

Olesen shot a six-under 66 in the final round of the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship to finish in a share of third place.

ANALYSIS
Olesen opened the week strong going 63-67 to put himself right in the mix. Those first two rounds were great for DFS players at it included four total eagles. Olesen fell back on Saturday only managing a 71, but the strong final round helped the Dane secure his third straight top-7 finish, and fifth top-12 finish in his last six starts. Olesen appears like he will be earning a PGA Tour card via the Race to Dubai standings for a second straight year.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2014

2013

Olesen made the cut in both his PGA TOUR starts last season. His best start came at the U.S. Open where he finished in the top-10. Olesen's starts on the PGA TOUR will be limited, but it looks like he'll get some cracks during a couple WGC events as well as the U.S. Open again this season, so the potential for a strong season is there.
