2026 Fantasy Outlook
Yu's regular season numbers have improved in each of the past two seasons since his rookie campaign in 2023. In addition, Yu carded his first PGA Tour win during the fall portion of the 2024 season at the Sanderson Farms Championship. Yu has been pretty consistent in his three years on the PGA Tour, but he hasn't shown much of an upside outside of his one win during the fall. He did improve his performance during the regular season this past year, which is a good sign, but it's not enough to justify a salary cap selection this season. Read Past Outlooks
MC in 2026 debut
Yu recorded a 54-hole score of seven-under-par to miss the cut at The American Express by four shots.
ANALYSIS
Yu hit just 21 of 42 fairways in regulation during his 2026 debut at The AmEx, though he still managed to post a 79.6 GIR percentage en route to 11 total birdies and an eagle across 54 holes. He's slated to tee it up again this week at the Farmers Insurance Open where he tied for sixth in 2024 when he gained 2.9 strokes on the greens at Torrey Pines.

2024
2023
Yu started the 2024 strong with top-10s in two of his first three starts of the season and he managed another top-10 in February, but after that, it was a long stretch of nothing until October. That's when his fortunes really turned around. Yu picked up his first PGA Tour win at the Sanderson Farms Championship in early October and in doing so, he retained his playing privileges for the upcoming season. Yu was decent as a rookie in 2023, landing just inside the top-100 at the end of the year, and he's again inside the top-100 thanks to his win in October. That being said, he's simply living too dangerously at this point to be trusted. Yu will need to show more consistency moving forward, and at his current number, there's no way you should consider him in a salary cap league.
