2026 Fantasy Outlook
Griffin was one of the biggest breakout stars in 2025. He won the Zurich Classic of New Orleans team event alongside Andrew Novak and then won the Charles Schwab Challenge for his first individual PGA Tour title. He closed out the year with win No. 3 at the World Wide Technology Championship in the fall. Griffin also took Scottie Scheffler to the brink at The Memorial Tournament and the Procore Championship. He ended the campaign with 17 top-20 finishes and was top 5 in both SG: Total and adjusted scoring average. Griffin played 30 total events in 2025, a pretty sizable difference from a lot of the other top players in earnings. That will likely dip in 2026 as he transitions from a middle of the road player who needs to play every event he can, to a guy who can set his schedule and make sure he is at his best for the biggest events. Griffin doesn't seem like a player at age 29 who will fall off given the makeup of his game. There is not a single weakness throughout the bag and he's played well enough on some tought golf courses to think that one day he could be a major champion. Read Past Outlooks
Cards three eagles at John Deere
Griffin finished T21 at the John Deere Classic with a 13-under cumulative score.
ANALYSIS
Griffin's best round of the tournament was a six-under 65 on Friday, but his two-under 69 in the opening round was marred by a quadruple bogey on the par-4 14th, when his second shot sailed the green and out of bounds. Still, Griffin came away with his ninth top-25 finish of the season, with his three eagles tied for most in the field. He also ranked in 11th in driving distance and in the top-30 in SG: Around and Putting, though he was middle-of-the-pack in driving accuracy, SG: Off-the-Tee and SG: Approach. Griffin's next appearance will be in two weeks at The Open, where he's missed the cut in each of his three previous outings.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2025
2024
2023
Griffin was one of the best rookies in 2023, and although he failed to raise his game much in 2024, his season was far from a disappointment. Griffin's earnings number in each of his first two seasons was just under $3.5 million, but he got there by taking a different route each year. His rookie season was a bread sandwich season in that he played well early and late, but there really wasn't much to show in the middle. This is often a bit concerning as it means that the golfer is generally playing better against weaker fields. He corrected this a bit in year two, however, when he posted a runner-up smack dab in the middle of the season at the RBC Canadian Open. Griffin appears to be on the right track, but this could be a slow train to better things, meaning that he might never be a good salary cap option unless he has a setback one of these years.
