Golf 2025 Player Prediction: Collin Morikawa

There was a good balance of surprise wins, dominant performances, heartbreaks, and life changing moments in the professional golf world in 2024. We had players go on historic runs, players reach new highs, and players reach new lows. These professional golfers gave the fans a little bit of everything in 2024, so what can we expect from them in 2025? Who will win the 2025 Majors? Will someone dominate the year? Whose game will fall off? Here is the 2025 Player Prediction for Collin Morikawa.

Official World Golf Ranking: 4

Wins: 0

Major Wins: 0

2024 Summary

If you could summarize Morikawa’s 2024 in one phrase it would be “Close, but no cigar”. If you watched him at all this year, you’d think he’d have a handful of wins, but, unfortunately, you’d be wrong. Despite being one of the best ball strikers in 2024, it didn’t result in one win this year. He got close a few times and was certainly in contention in the Majors, but he just was not able to break through. He finished second twice, was in the top five seven times, and top 10 eight times this season, only missing two cuts. On tour, he ranks fifth in strokes gained total, 11th in strokes gained tee to green, and 10th in strokes gained around the green. He is currently the fourth-ranked player in the official world golf rankings.

2025 Prediction

If Morikawa can continue to hit the golf ball the way he did in 2024, you can be sure that he’ll continue to be in contention in a lot of events in 2025. He may not be the longest hitter in professional golf, but his precision is almost second to none and that should, hopefully, carry into the new year. His putting also improved significantly in 2024, which should give him more confidence in the flat stick in 2025. My prediction for Collin Morikawa’s 2025 is 2+ total wins, contends in 2+ Majors, specifically the Masters and the Open Championship, automatically qualifies for the U.S. Ryder Cup team, and finishes the year top 10 in the official world golf rankings.
