2025 Fantasy Outlook
After that elite 2021-22 rookie campaign that saw Young rank 15th in SG: Total and rack up seven top-three finishes, the last two seasons have been a bit more trying for the 27-year-old. Young ranked 74th and 81st the last two seasons in SG: Total, seeing big dropoffs in his short game and putting from his rookie year. That said, he did close last season having gained around the greens in seven straight. Young has the firepower to pile up birdies and eagles in bunches, but clearly there's still some refining needed to put him back in the conversation amongst the top American players. If you can get Young at the right value, there's potential for it to be paid off in a big way in 2025. Read Past Outlooks

Young is one of the rare PGA Tour players that played in every elevated event this past season but saw his earnings go down. The reasons for that are two-fold. First, Young set the bar rather high in the previous season when he topped $6 million in earnings. The second reason is that he hit a bit of a rut between the Masters and the Open Championship. The good news is that he posted a top-10 at the Open Championship and played fairly well during the FedEx playoffs. Whatever the reason for the drop off, Young is far too talented to write him off for the upcoming season. His lowered number also makes him an interesting selection in salary cap leagues.
Young put together one of the best rookie seasons in recent memory. He was not able to find the winner's circle, but he notched a whopping seven top-three finishes, two of which came in majors. Young is an amazing driver who ranked second in SG: Off-the-Tee and third in driving distance last season. His short game and putting were also both impressive considering how far he hits the ball. Young was 15th in SG: Total and 16th in scoring average. After seriously considering a jump to LIV Golf, Young was able to come to his senses and realize the opportunities he is going to have in front of him playing for some of the biggest trophies in golf. The 25-year-old has the type of game and swing to be successful on the PGA Tour for years to come.
Young became a back-to-back champion on the Korn Ferry Tour this year when he won the AdventHealth Championship and the Evans Scholars Invitational in late May, tallying a combined score of 37-under par throughout those eight consecutive sub-70 rounds. He missed the cut in two PGA Tour appearances, however, failing to advance to the weekend at the Farmers Insurance Open and U.S. Open. Nonetheless, Young was eighth on the KFT in driving distance and 25th in birdie average.
