Sepp Straka

If you throw out the major championship results, Straka could have been hard pressed to ask for a better year. He scored a pair of victories, one of which was a Signature Event at the Truist Championship. Straka also had just two finishes outside the top 30. The frustrating part for him will be the fact that he went MC-MC-MC-T52 in the four majors. He needs to find a way to put that behind him and get over that mental hurdle in the biggest events starting in 2026. Straka has been one of the better ball strikers on Tour over the last few years, and 2025 also proved to be the best putting season of his career. The short game is really the only Achilles heel in his bag. Straka is still just 32 years of age and can continue to develop in that area. Crossing the $10 million threshold again is probably a lot to ask going into 2026, but he's not a guy you can see having a huge fall off anytime soon. Read Past Outlooks
