2025 Fantasy Outlook
Young just missed out on nabbing conditional status for 2026 at 129th in the FedExCup Fall standings. He did have five top-20 finishes, but three of them came at alternate-field events. Young's ball striking last season was solid at 19th in driving accuracy, 36th in GIR percentage and 40th in proximity. That said, the short game and putting needs a lot of work to produce some better results. Young will likely play some events on the PGA Tour, but his primary focus will probably be trying to get full status back through the Korn Ferry Tour. Read Past Outlooks
T6 in Mexico
November 9, 2025
Young shot a four-under 68 on Sunday at the World Wide Technology Championship to finish in a share of sixth place.
ANALYSIS
Young began the final round one shot back of the lead, and he got off to a good start with three birdies in the first six holes to tie the lead. However, he cooled off on the back-nine with only two birdies and a pair of bogeys to fall out of contention. Young's 33 birdies was the most of anyone in the field, and he also ranked first in putts per GIR. He still has work to do to keep his card as he sits 124th in the points list.

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.
