2026 Fantasy Outlook
Pendrith had a breakout season in 2024, and though he didn't quite match that level of production in 2025, he came pretty close. Pendrith didn't make it to the PGA Tour until he was 30-years-old, which can be concerning, but he hit the ground running in his rookie season and hasn't had a down season since joining the Tour. During his breakout season, Pendrith carded one win and seven top-10s, yet he earned only slightly more than he did during his 2025 season, which indicates that he didn't play or produce much at the Signature Events. The opposite was true this past year as he only had four top-10s, but he got them in the right weeks. Pendrith looks like he's on the way up still and as such, he's a viable salary cap option this season. Read Past Outlooks
Loses playoff at ISCO Championship
July 12, 2026
Pendrith was the runner-up at the ISCO Championship after losing to Steven Fisk on the third playoff hole.
ANALYSIS
Pendrith did well to even force a playoff, going four-under on the back nine to finish the final round with a five-under 65 and a 16-under cumulative score for the tournament. The 35-year-old Canadian put himself in a good spot to win the event on the first playoff hole after his approach shot found the green, but he could not convert his short birdie putt. Pendrith's iron play bit him in the next two playoff holes, ultimately leading to a bogey on the third playoff that sealed his fate after Fisk sunk his par putt for the win. Pendrith's third eagles were most in the field, and he also ranked T3 in GIR, T4 in bogeys, sixth in SG: Off-the-Tee, T11 in driving distance, 12th in SG: Putting and in the top-25 in driving accuracy and both SG: Approach and Around. It was his best finish at a PGA Tour event since his victory at THE CJ CUP Byron Nelson in 2024, and he now sits 79th in the FedExCup standings, with the top-70 qualifying for the St. Jude Championship. Pendrith will tee off at the Corales Puntacana Championship next week.

2020
There's a lot to like about Pendrith's upside for 2025. He's always been long and a great putter, but he finished off last season by gaining strokes in eight of his last nine starts. The Canadian has no issues putting up red numbers as he ranked seventh in birdie average. Pendrith earned his first PGA Tour victory at THE CJ CUP Byron Nelson and scored 11 top-15 finishes in 2024. If he is able to keep the positive upward trend with his iron play to compliment ranking fifth in SG: Putting, Pendrith is going to be a consistent threat on a weekly basis in 2025.
Pendrith had a lot of buzz surrounding him coming into last season, which turned out to be mostly a disappointment as he entered July with only three top-25 finishes. He did close the season relatively well, posting three top-15s over his last four fall events to build some momentum heading into 2024. He's entering just his third full season on Tour at 32-years-old, and his length (30th in driving distance) gives him a nice advantage over the majority of the field. The sleeper potential is still there as his results tend to be boom-or-bust, and he could develop some more consistent results with some slight improvements with his short game.
After a very successful Korn Ferry Tour campaign in 2020-2021, Pendrith entered the PGA Tour this past season with high expectations and he didn't disappoint. Pendrith posted three top-10's and nine top-25's on his way to over $2.3 million in earnings. Perhaps most impressive was that he did all of that in just 21 starts after being slowed by fractured rib in the middle of the season. There's a lot of reason to like this Canadian going into 2022-23 after he finished last season with six top-15's in his last seven starts. Pendrith ranked top-12 on Tour last season in SG: Off-the-Tee, driving distance, and GIR percentage.
Pendrith earns a PGA Tour card via his ranking of fifth on the Korn Ferry Tour's regular season points list, but he also tallied a trio of top-25s at the PGA level in 2020-21. Pendrith notched four runner-ups on the KFT, including three in a row last summer from the TPC San Antonio Challenge at the Canyons through the Pinnacle Bank Championship. Given his KFT ranking of third in driving distance, the Canadian's upside is evident.
Pendrith doesn't have a win under his belt in 2020 like the other names around him near the top of the Korn Ferry Tour Points list, but he went on a wild run this summer stringing together finishes of T3-2-T2-T2 from the TPC Colorado Championship through the Pinnacle Bank Championship. That's four consecutive top-3s before adding three additional top-25s throughout his last four starts to end the season. Pendrith, who won twice on the Mackenzie Tour in 2019, ranked fifth in driving distance and eighth in birdie average on the KFT.
