Past Fantasy Outlooks

2013

A pair of victories in April at the Astara Chile Classic and the HomeTown Lenders Championship guided Kohles to the No. 1 spot on the 2023 Korn Ferry Tour Points List by season's end, while he also notched four top-10s across his final five outings from the Magnit Championship to the KFT Championship. Earning a start in the FedExCup Fall's RSM Classic in November, Kohles gained 4.4 strokes with his irons en route to a T5 finish at Sea Island Golf Club, raking in just over $300K during his only appearance at the PGA Tour level throughout the 2022-23 campaign. He ranked eighth or better among his KFT peers in each of driving accuracy, GIR percentage and scrambling this past season, but a lack of power off the tee could be a primary weakness for this 170-pound, 33-year-old in 2024.

Kohles hasn't made a start on the PGA Tour since missing the cut at the 2017 U.S. Open, but he's regained status thanks to 17 top-25s and two runner-up performances throughout the 2020-21 super season on the Korn Ferry Tour. He closed the KFT campaign with back-to-back top-20s at the Nationwide Children's Hospital Championship and the Korn Ferry Tour Championship. From a season-long perspective, Kohles ranked second in GIR percentage and 10th in driving accuracy on the KFT.

Talk about feeling confident about your game: Kohles made headlines around the golfing world in July when he won right out of the gate in his Web.com Tour debut at the Nationwide Children's Hospital Invitational in a playoff, and then backed it up the very next week at the Cox Classic when he closed Sunday with a 62. In just 10 starts he amassed more than $300,000 in earnings and cemented his place in Web.com Tour history. Watch out for him being a John Huh-type, winning in his first year on tour, possibly in an opposite-field event to a World Golf Championship or The Open Championship. He's a bit of a risk as a rookie but should pay off in salary cap leagues. In draft leagues, he's worth a fifth-round pick.
