2025 Fantasy Outlook
Bhatia won a PGA Tour event for the second consecutive season with his triumph at the Valero Texas Open. He nearly added another one at the Rocket Mortgage Classic, but bogeyed the final hole to miss the playoff after leading for much of the week. For as good as Bhatia was with his 12 top-25s, eight missed cuts is also a little high for a guy that strikes the ball as well as he does. He's still only 23 years old, so you'd expect him to continue to refine his short game which ranked outside the top-115 in SG: Around-the-Green each of the last two seasons. Bhatia did find a new putter which helped him go from 183rd in SG: Putting to 33rd this past season. Expect him to land inside the top-10 more than three times in 2025. Read Past Outlooks
No. 2 in SG: APP at Harbour Town
April 22, 2025
Bhatia closed with an even-par 71 on Sunday at the RBC Heritage to finish five-under and tied for 42nd.
ANALYSIS
Bhatia ranked second among the field in SG: Approach at Harbour Town, but the rest of his game lagged behind en route to nine total bogeys and two doubles across 72 holes. The T42 result caused him to drop five spots to No. 29 in the FedExCup standings, but he'll tee it up again this week at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans alongside playing partner Carson Young.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Bhatia secured his first career PGA Tour win last season bringing home the title at the Barracuda Championship. The win was one of two top-3 and four top-10 finishes on the season for Bhatia who made just under 70 percent of cuts. While his putter tends to let him down, Bhatia is well above average at SG:Off-The-Tee and SG:Approach to Green.
