2025 Fantasy Outlook
Olesen has now earned a PGA Tour card via his Race to Dubai standings for the second straight year. The Dane played last February through early August on the PGA Tour, but the rest of the time he spent on the DP World Tour. It's unclear the exact reason for that, but if he wants to focus heavily on both tours that will certainly limit his upside in salary cap formats. Olesen had only two top-25 finishes in 16 PGA Tour starts, but racked up five top-10s and nine top-25s in 12 DP World Tour starts. He's going to be a hard player to project, but cleary he's a quality golfer sitting inside the top-60 of the DataGolf rankings. Read Past Outlooks
Ties for 33rd at PGA Championship
May 19, 2025
Olesen closed with a one-under 70 on Sunday at the PGA Championship to finish even-par and tied for 33rd.
ANALYSIS
Olesen finished his week at Quail Hollow ranked 14th among the field in SG: Tee-to-Green, and he's now made the cut in four consecutive major championship appearances dating back to the 2024 Masters Tournament. Olesen has placed 33rd or better in three straight starts since a top-5 effort at the Valero Texas Open, and he'll peg it again this week at Colonial Country Club for his Charles Schwab Challenge debut.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2014
2013
Olesen was thought to have a lot of upside roughly about a decade ago, and while he never really lived up to that, he still has turned out a nice career at age 33 with seven DP World Tour wins after his victory at the Thailand Classic in February. That being said he has not made a cut at a major since the 2019 Open Championship. Olesen ranked fourth on the DPWT last season in SG: Tee-to-Green, which certainly will play to his benefit on a little more demanding setups on the PGA Tour, but don't set exepectations too high here.
Olesen made the cut in both his PGA TOUR starts last season. His best start came at the U.S. Open where he finished in the top-10. Olesen's starts on the PGA TOUR will be limited, but it looks like he'll get some cracks during a couple WGC events as well as the U.S. Open again this season, so the potential for a strong season is there.
