Tom Kim

22-Year-Old Golfer
2025 Fantasy Outlook
After racking up nearly $8 million in the 2022-23 season, Kim barely topped $4 million in the 2024 campaign and failed to reach the top-50 in the FedExCup. That means he is not going to be exempt for all of the Signature Events in 2025, but he's got a good chance to play his way in or receive an invite from a sponsor. Kim had just two top-10 finishes on the PGA Tour last season, a T4 at the RBC Canadian Open and a runner-up at the Travelers Championship. The 22-year-old had largely similar SG: Off-the-Tee and SG: Around-the-Green rankings the last two seasons, but he was significantly off in both SG: Approach and SG: Putting in 2024. Expect Kim to bounce back and find better results in 2025. Read Past Outlooks
Secures top-10 finish at Pebble Beach
February 2, 2025
Kim closed with a two-under 70 on Sunday to finish in a tie for seventh place at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am.
ANALYSIS
Kim held a share of the lead around the turn on Sunday, but was just no match for Rory McIlroy when he turned up the wick on the back-nine. Kim made a disappointing bogey on the final hole that certainly cost him significant points and money. It was still a quality week overall, as Kim gained strokes in every category and flashed a lot of the work he has put in to increase his ball speed. He will be in the field for next week's WM Phoenix Open.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Kim secured two wins in 2022-23, both at the Shriners Children's Open. He also impressed with a T8 at the U.S. Open and T2 at the Open Championship. The 21-year-old might not have the ideal length to be one of the top players in the world, but he has proven hil ability bto make up for it with the irons and on the greens. Kim was 10th in SG: Approach and 21st in Putts per GIR last season. He is not afraid to play a ton of events and has been consistently in the mix with a 55 percent top-25 rate. Expect to see a similar season in 2024.
Kim burst on the scene this summer as a 20-year-old. He was a standout at the Scottish Open finishing solo third and then a few weeks later became the second-youngest winner on the PGA Tour since WWII with his victory at the Wyndham Championship. Kim would unfortunately just miss out on the Tour Championship, but there is so much potential here to tap into here when he gets a full season on the PGA Tour. He is a fairways and greens machine who would have graded top-20 if he had enough rounds in key categories like SG: Approach, SG: Tee-to-Green, birdie average and scoring average.
