2026 Fantasy Outlook
Olesen's 2025 campaign was highglighted by a T14-T3-T14-T29 late-season stretch from the Sanderson Farms Championship to the Butterfield Bermuda Championship, which ultimately allowed him to finish 96th in the FedExCup Fall standings and retain full status for 2026. The 35-year-old Dane missed only eight cuts across 24 starts, ranking top 25 on Tour in each of SG: Putting, total driving and GIR percentage as well. If he's able to improve his proximity metrics, particularly from the 125-175 yard range, Olesen could be a sleeper candidate next season. Read Past Outlooks
MC at FIO
Olesen recorded a 36-hole score of one-under-par to miss the cut at last week's Farmers Insurance Open by two shots.
ANALYSIS
Olesen began the calendar year with a pair of top-10s in Dubai, but the short game didn't travel for his 2026 PGA Tour debut as he lost a collective 2.65 strokes on and around the greens throughout his lone round on the South Course at Torrey Pines. However, he hit 29 of 36 greens in regulation at the Farmers, retaining some ball-striking momentum ahead of the WM Phoenix Open.

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.
