Est. Return 3/19/2026
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Nakajima did everything but win in 2025 logging a trio of runner-up finishes on the DP World Tour. He added another solo fourth at the Betfred British Masters. Those top finishes helped him to land amongst the top 10 in the DP World Tour Eligibility Rankings, which will give him full status on the PGA Tour in 2026. Nakajima ranked 24th in SG: Off-the-Tee, 15th in driving accuracy, 20th in scrambling and 36th in SG: Putting on the DP World Tour last season. He's only 25 years of age and has some potential, but the transition to the PGA Tour is likely to be a difficult one. Keeping his card for 2027 would be an accomplishment. Read Past Outlooks
