2025 Fantasy Outlook
Bhatia won a PGA Tour event for the second consecutive season with his triumph at the Valero Texas Open. He nearly added another one at the Rocket Mortgage Classic, but bogeyed the final hole to miss the playoff after leading for much of the week. For as good as Bhatia was with his 12 top-25s, eight missed cuts is also a little high for a guy that strikes the ball as well as he does. He's still only 23 years old, so you'd expect him to continue to refine his short game which ranked outside the top-115 in SG: Around-the-Green each of the last two seasons. Bhatia did find a new putter which helped him go from 183rd in SG: Putting to 33rd this past season. Expect him to land inside the top-10 more than three times in 2025. Read Past Outlooks
T7 in GIR at Colonial C.C.
May 26, 2025
Bhatia closed with a four-over 74 on Sunday at the Charles Schwab Challenge to finish four-under and tied for 22nd.
ANALYSIS
Bhatia entered the final round at Colonial Country Club inside of the top-5 on the leaderboard, but he tallied four bogeys and a double to fall 18 spots Sunday, converting only three of seven scrambling opportunities in the process. Nonetheless, Bhatia closed out the week ranked T7 among the CSC field in GIR percentage and 16th in SG: Approach. He'll be in attendance again this week for the Memorial Tournament where he tied for 22nd last year when he gained 4.1 strokes off the tee.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Bhatia secured his first career PGA Tour win last season bringing home the title at the Barracuda Championship. The win was one of two top-3 and four top-10 finishes on the season for Bhatia who made just under 70 percent of cuts. While his putter tends to let him down, Bhatia is well above average at SG:Off-The-Tee and SG:Approach to Green.
