2025 Fantasy Outlook
Thorbjornsen is fully exempt for the 2025 season after topping the 2024 PGA Tour University Rankings. Following a standout senior season at Stanford, Thorbjornsen would take his talents the the PGA Tour and make 11 starts to close the year. While there was some expected inconsistency, Thorbjornsen showed he has the talent to compete at the highest level racking up a T2 at the John Deere Classic before finishing 2024 with a pair of T8 finishes in his last three starts. While he didn't have enough starts to be eligible, he would have ranked top-five on Tour last season in driving distance and in the top-10 in GIR percentage. Thorbjornsen has also proved to be a strong putter gaining strokes on the greens in his last five starts in 2024. While the talent is very exciting, expectations need to be properly managed as a full season on the PGA Tour is quite the grind for a young player. Read Past Outlooks
T8 in return from knee injury
November 25, 2024
Thorbjornsen carded a one-under 69 on Sunday at The RSM Classic to finish 13-under and tied for eighth.
ANALYSIS
Thorbjornsen was sidelined for over a month with a knee injury before making his RSM Classic debut this past week, impressively notching his third top-10 of the season in his return to action. He ranked T2 among the field at Sea Island in GIR percentage and 10th in SG: Around-the-Green. Thorbjornsen ultimately finished outside of the top-125 in the FedExCup Fall standings, but he retains full status for 2025 thanks to his No. 1 ranking in the PGA TOUR University Class of 2024.
