2025 Fantasy Outlook

Wins in Punta Cana
April 20, 2025
Higgo won the Corales Puntacana Championship by one stroke following an even-par 72 in the final round.
ANALYSIS
The Corales Golf Course played tricky at times this week due to the gusty winds. Sunday was really tricky with Higgo battling it out with several other players. The toughest holes were down the stretch and while Higgo played the final six in two-over, that was better Joel Dahmen at four-over on the last six, who was in control for much of the week. Six players ended up at 13-under-par, but a key par on 18 put Higgo at 14-under. For the South African it was his second win on the PGA Tour, but first since the 2021 Palmetto Championship in which he also won by one stroke over six other players. Higgo was coming off a T3 finish on the Korn Ferry Tour. He had played in just two PGA Tour events so far in 2025, but he'll now be exempt for the rest of this year plus two more seasons. It'll also put him into the next signature event in a couple weeks at the Truist Championship.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2022
Higgo will be entering his fourth season on Tour, making it easy to forget that he's just 24-years-old. While 2023 was mostly a struggle, four of his six top-25s came since July, showing that he found something in the summer. The South African lives by the 'drive for show, putt for dough' mantra, as those are the two things he does well. He's yet to show much with his iron play, however, losing over .1 strokes per round on approach. Without significant improvement in that area, it's hard to forecast a breakthrough season just yet.
Higgo only needed 22 events this past season to become fully exempt for next year. He missed over 60 percent of his cuts but relied on strong finishes at the Zurich Classic and Memorial Tournament to stay within the top 150. All things considered, the 23-year-old wasn’t playing particularly well to end the season, missing five of his last six cuts. Given his age however, there is still plenty of room to learn and grow. It will be important for Higgo and his confidence to get off to a decent start in the upcoming season.
The 22-year-old South African has played primarily on the European Tour and took advantage of a sponsor exemption to win in his second career PGA Tour start to guarantee himself status through the 2023-24 season. Since winning in June, he's missed 4-of-7 cuts with a best finish of T-41, so his consistency is still a question. Expect him to play full-time on the PGA Tour this season, with some ups-and-downs to his long hitting nature that can yields birdies in bunches but also plenty of bogeys.
