2026 Fantasy Outlook

A disappointing second-half of the 2024 campaign carried into 2025, where Homa missed six of his first eight cuts with a best result of T26. He showed some signs of life with a T12 at The Masters, but didn't post another top-25 until nearly two months later. Unlike last year, however, Homa has something to build off of as he closed the year with three top-20s over his last four events. Homa hasn't seen a drastic drop off in one particular area, but rather a steady a decline across the board over the last two years. Considering that we've seen him bounce back from struggles before and that there's no aspect severely holding him back, a resurgence from the seven-time Tour winner could certainly be in the cards.

Share of 32nd at TPC Sawgrass

March 17, 2026

Homa posted a two-under cumulative score at THE PLAYERS Championship to finish T32.

ANALYSIS
Homa's 21 birdies were fourth most in the field at TPC Sawgrass, but he also posted 15 bogeys and four double bogeys, which ranked T64 and T68, respectively. He also finished in the top-25 in GIR, SG: Approach and SG: Putting. Homa has made the cut in five of six PGA Tour outings this season, with his T13 at the Cognizant Classic two weeks ago being his best finish of 2026. He'll participate in the Valspar Championship next week for the first time since 2021, when he finished T6.

Homa finished the season inside the top-50 and earned just under $4 million in 2024, and yet the best word to describe his season was disastrous. Okay, that's a bit dramatic, but understand where Homa set the bar in the two years leading up to 2024 and it's hard to do anything but shake your head when trying to figure out what happened this past year. Homa's stats were down across the board, driving, GIR, putting, everything was worse in 2024 when compared to the preceding five years. When one aspect of a golfer's game isn't working, they do everything they can to fix that area, but when everything drops off, what do you do? Homa is simply too good to continue this downward spiral and he's going to pull out of it at some point. Whether that's early this season, late in the season or even in 2026 is unknown, but at his current number, he's certainly worth a long look in salary cap leagues.

Homa is fresh from consecutive two-win seasons on the PGA Tour. Last year, he kicked off with triumphs in his home state of California, clinching victories at the Fortinet Championship and the Farmers Insurance Open, and then came close to winning the Genesis Invitational. Homa hit a little bit of a lull with four missed cuts in a seven-start stretch, but closed the season with six straight top-12 finishes. There are really no holes in Homa's game, as he ranked inside the top-40 in all strokes gained categories. The 33-year-old is becoming one of the best putters on Tour and it seems unlikely that we will see a dropoff anytime soon.

Homa began the year with a victory at the Fortinet Championship and proved to be very consistent throughout the spring. He then was able to get himself back in the winner's circle for a fourth time in his career at the Wells Fargo Championship. Homa would make the Tour Championship for the first time and score a T5 finish. If you are looking for the key to Homa's leap this year it has been in the short game department where he now ranks 57th in SG: Around-the-Green, a stat that he has been mired outside the top-150 in for the large majority of his career. The rest of his bag is extremely consistent, so it's hard to see why he couldn't have another very solid season in 2022-23. Whether he wins again, let alone multiple times, is another story.

Homa struggled to find his footing as a rookie on the PGA Tour in 2015, but after a year away he earned his first win and more than $2 million. A decent 2019-20 season was followed by his best season yet in 2020-21. Homa set the bar pretty high, but he appears to be a golfer who might be destined for better things. His price will prevent him from being a great salary cap option this season, but there is a good chance he improves upon his numbers from last year. Just how much is the question.

Homa picked up his first win in the 2018-19 campaign and while he didn't win this past season, it was statistically a better performance. Homa finished 40 spots better in SG: Total and had four more top-25s. Homa is fairly solid through the bag, but one big area for improvement would be short game, as he ranks 187th in SG: Around-the-green.

Perhaps no victory was more unexpected last season than Homa's, who captured the Wells Fargo Championship in May. Homa's first go-round on the PGA Tour came in 2015, and things did not go as planned. Homa missed more cuts than he made and ended the season with less than $400k in earnings. In limited action the following season, Homa only managed $18k in earnings. Things weren't looking much better this past season until his victory in May, which is what made that win so surprising. Considering Homa has just one year of success under his belt on the PGA Tour, the bar is simply set too high for salary cap purposes this season.

Homa missed a whopping 15 cuts in 17 starts during his 2016-17 campaign on the PGA Tour, so he was forced to spend the 2018 season at the Web.com level where he notched nine top-25s in 27 events. With top-10s at the Albertsons Boise Open and DAP Championship, Homa finished top-25 overall during the Web.com Tour Finals. He's missed the cut in well over half of his 53 career starts on the PGA Tour, however.

The youngster out of UCLA was a rookie in 2014-15 and enjoyed limited success. So he returned to the Web.com Tour and finished 23rd on the regular-season money list to get a second try. He should be better suited this time around, but whether enough to reach the playoffs and keep his card is a big question mark.

Seeking Special Temporary Membership, Homa played eight events last year while not accruing FedEx Cup points. He started off terrifically, finishing T9 as a sponsor exemption in the season-opening Frys, using that top 10 to get into the Shriners, in which he finished 30th. But that was that, and his bid for STM stalled. He turned to the Web.com Tour in May, and finished in the top 25 in regular-season earnings. So he’s a bit hard to predict. But top 125 seems out of range.
