Projecting the sport’s subsequent stars is normally an not possible process.
Working example: I tabbed 20 names in final yr’s breakout predictions, and most of them didn’t precisely take off.
Nevertheless, I did hit on a couple of, most notably David Puig, who added one other Asian Tour win to start out the yr earlier than notching a pair of late-season top-5s on the DP World Tour; Chris Gotterup and Kevin Yu, who broke via for his or her first profession PGA Tour titles; and Ricky Castillo and Noah Goodwin, who aren’t stars but, however they did each graduate from the Korn Ferry Tour this yr.
Earlier than I strive once more, right here’s a reminder of the standards:
- But to crack high 100 in Official World Golf Rating
- But to win on PGA Tour, DP World Tour or LIV Golf
- 25 years outdated or youthful
So, now that we all know the foundations (no, Luke Clanton doesn’t meet the standards), listed here are 10 names to observe as potential breakout stars in 2025:
ALSO CONSIDERED
