2025 Fantasy Outlook
Young showed improvement in his second season on Tour, although it wasn't without some bumps in the road considering he went through a 17-tournament stretch with 11 missed cuts. His T5 finish at the John Deere Classic was his second career top-5, and he contended in Cabo late in the year, finishing one shot out of a playoff. Young's around the green play is notably poor - he ranked in the bottom-15 in SG: Around-the-Green for a second straight year, but he is an accurate driver and good putter that's capable of making the playoffs if the around the green play improves.

Shoots six-under Sunday
November 25, 2024
Young carded a six-under 64 on Sunday at The RSM Classic to finish tied for 35th place.
ANALYSIS
The 30-year-old was one of seven golfers to finish six-under or better in Sunday's final round, jumping 26 spots to finish T35. Young's performed impeccably off the tee and on the greens, hitting all 14 fairways and saving 2.393 strokes putting, the best and fourth-best marks Sunday, respectively. The American golfer has now finished 88th in the final FedExFall Cup standings, earning a PGA tour card for 2025.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Like many rookies, Young stumbled out of the gates in his debut season, making just three of his first 13 cuts before finding form with a T-3 at the alternate event Puerto Rico Open. He got through sectional qualifying to play in his first major championship at LA Country Club (where he missed the cut) and ended up with a decent six top-20s on the season. The biggest obstacle for Young is around-the-green play, where he ranked a dreadful 185th. Combine that with having below average length and Young will struggle to stay inside the top-125 without some serious improvements in his short game.
Young notched only one top-10 finish in 25 starts during the 2022 Korn Ferry Tour season, but he made it count with a win at the Panama Championship back in early February. He ultimately missed 13 total cuts, but still managed to earn a PGA Tour card for 2022-23 thanks to his run during the Korn Ferry Tour Finals, which included top-20 performances at the Albertsons Boise Open and the Korn Ferry Tour Championship.
