2025 Fantasy Outlook
Theegala had his best season in 2024 racking up 11 top-12 finishes and making the Presidents Cup team for the first time. A big key to his success was tightening things up with the driver. He ranked 134th in SG: Off-the-Tee and 172nd in driving accuracy in 2023, but in 2024 he was all the way up to 27th in SG: Off-the-Tee and 119th in driving accuracy. Combine that with a great putting stroke and soft hands around the green, and it makes sense why he piled up the results like he did this past year. All that said, Theegala has always been a volatile player and you're going to have to live with some inconsistent results from time to time, but it's rare to find a player with his kind of firepower. That could certainly lead him back to the winner's circle in 2025. Read Past Outlooks
Falls to 145th in FEC Fall standings
November 18, 2025
Theegala carded a two-over 73 on Sunday at the Butterfield Bermuda Championship to finish even-par and tied for 42nd.
ANALYSIS
Theegala racked up 18 birdies throughout his week at Port Royal, but he also ranked just 67th among the field in scrambling en route to 15 total bogeys or worse. He fell two spots to No. 145 in the FedExCup Fall standings with the T42 in Bermuda, but he'll be in attendance again this week for The RSM Classic where he tied for second in 2022.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2022
Theegala had a stretch of nine events during the summer where he failed to record a top-25 finish, but he closed the year with top-20s in four of his last five starts, including his first PGA Tour win at the Fortinet Championship. Theegala's biggest weakness is that he is pretty wild off the tee, which then leads to a ranking outside the top-150 in GIR percentage. The good news is that he was top-25 in both SG: Around-the-Green and SG: Putting last season. That being said, Theegala needs to find more consistency with the ball-striking if he is going to find himself in contention at some of the bigger events in 2024. He is certainly an exciting player to watch, but it seems unlikely that he reaches $7 million again next season.
Theegala had a very impressive rookie season that was able to captivate fans through his strong play. If not for a bad break at the 71st hole at the Phoenix Open or the 72nd hole of the Travelers Championship, Theegala could easily have two wins. His consistency was also of note, as the 24-year-old made 16 of his last 17 cuts in individual events. Theegala can go low with the best of them, as he led the PGA Tour with 433 total birdies last season. He really does have all the tools, but a key to finding more success in the future might be eliminating his big misses. Theegala can get it out there, but was only 91st in SG: Off-the-Tee because he was 173rd in driving accuracy.
Theegala rebounded from a missed cut in the Korn Ferry Tour Finals opener by finishing T4-6 at the Nationwide Children's Hospital Championship and the KFT Championship, securing his status as a rookie on the PGA Tour in 2021-22. He's already made 13 career starts at the PGA level, however, highlighted by a T14 at the 2020 Safeway Open. The 23-year-old came to prominence as an amateur during his time at Pepperdine University, where he was the unanimous National Player of the Year in 2020.
