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
T16 at Muirfield Village GC
June 2, 2025
Bhatia struggled Saturday with an eight-over 80 at the Memorial Tournament to knock him out of contention.
ANALYSIS
Bhatia entered the third round at Muirfield Village Golf Club inside the top-10, but after recording four bogeys, two double-bogeys, and zero birdies on a tough windy day in Dublin, Ohio, Bhatia fell out of contention. Bhatia hit only six greens in regulation on Saturday, and was only able to save par on six of the 12 missed greens. This poor performance into and around the greens made Bhatia lose over five shots on the field as he ranked 55th in SG: Approach and 50th in SG: Around the Green out of 57 in the third round. While Bhatia was able to rebound in the final round, shooting a two-under 70 to finish tied 16th, his poor third round ended his chances to contend in what was an overall good week. He will look to rebound next at Oakmont in the U.S Open.

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.
