2025 Fantasy Outlook
Hojgaard wasted little time getting accustomed to the PGA Tour, finishing runner-up at Torrey Pines in his first start, but he only picked up one other top-20 at Augusta the rest of the year. Not to be confused with his brother, Rasmus, who will be joining the Tour in 2025, Nicolai stormed onto the scene on the DP World Tour in 2023 to make the Ryder Cup team, but has struggled to recapture that form. He's a long hitter and quality ball striker with a high ceiling, but fantasy managers are going to need some patience due to his inconsistency. Read Past Outlooks

Bid to join playoff falls short
November 10, 2025
Hojgaard shot a five-under 67 in the final round of the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship to finish in a share of third place.
ANALYSIS
Hojgaard pulled off one of the best shots of the week on the 72nd hole. Needing an eagle to have any chance of a playoff, the Dane put his approach from over 280 yards away to within 20 feet. The putt was perfect speed, but just left an inch out on the high side. Hojgaard would have to ultimately settle for a share of third with Rory McIlroy. Hojgaard has now won in 2025, but now has his fourth top-4 finish of the year across both the PGA Tour and DP World Tour. He will look to close things out strong next week at the DP World Tour Championship in Dubai where he has finished T4 and 1st on two previous occasions.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Hojgaard earned special temporary status on the PGA Tour after his first start where he finished runner-up in Punta Cana. He added four top-25s in a five start stretch later in the season to virtually solidfy that he would have full status for 2024 via non-member points. The 22-year-old also impressed the world at the Ryder Cup as a rookie. The Dane has three career DP World Tour wins, one of which was the 2023 DP World Tour Championship. Hojgaard will be one of the longest drivers on the PGA Tour and he also ranks fourth in approaches from 50-125 yards and eighth in putts per GIR show that he is already starting to round out his entire game. The upside here is extremely high, but a full season on the PGA Tour will certainly test him mentally.
