Best Tour finish of 2026 in Houston Olesen finished tied for 14th at the Texas Children's Houston Open after posting a 10-under cumulative score.

Impact Olesen went two-under or better in each round at Memorial Park and went six-under across the final two rounds of the tournament. He ranked fifth in SG: Approach, T19 in GIR and in the top-30 in SG: Around-the-Green, birdies made and driving distance, though he finished near the bottom of the field in driving accuracy, SG: Off-the-Tee and SG: Putting. Olesen opened the year with back-to-back top-10 finishes on the DP World Tour before missing the cut in four of five PGA Tour events, so his top-15 finish in Houston was an encouraging sign. He'll tee off at the Valero Texas Open next week, where he finished T14 in 2024 and T5 in 2025.

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.

Impact 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.

T7 at Dubai Invitational Olesen carded a two-under 69 in the final round of the Dubai Invitational to finish tied with Marcus Armitage and Matt Wallace for seventh.

Impact Olesen's bogey-free, five-under 66 score in the third round was his best of the tournament. He led the field in scrambling (81.82 percent), second in par-3 scoring (2.94), fifth in SG: Tee to green (1.80) and in the top-10 in GIR and SG: Around the Green. It was Olesen's second top-10 finish in his last three DP World Tour events, and he's in the field for the Hero Dubai Desert Classic that tees off Thursday.

T29 at Bermuda Championship Olesen posted a three-over 74 on Sunday at the Butterfield Bermuda Championship to finish two-under and tied for 29th.

Impact Olesen carded back-to-back double bogeys on hole Nos. 14 and 15 during Sunday's final round at Port Royal, ultimately causing him to drop one spot to No. 96 in the FedExCup Fall standings with one event remaining on the 2025 schedule. Nonetheless, he's placed top-30 in four consecutive starts ahead of his upcoming RSM Classic debut.

Ties for 14th at WWT Championship Olesen fired a six-under 66 on Sunday at the World Wide Technology Championship to finish 21-under and tied for 14th.

Impact Olesen hit 17 of 18 greens in regulation en route to eight birdies throughout Sunday's final round in Mexico, where he ultimately carded just three total bogeys all week. Olesen has now placed T14-T3-T14 in his last three starts dating back to the Sanderson Farms Championship, ascending to 95th in the FedExCup Fall standings. He's now slated to make his Butterfield Bermuda Championship debut this week at Port Royal.

Makes up ground in FedExCup with T3 Olesen finished in a share of third place at the Bank of Utah Championship after shooting a three-under 68 in the final round.

Impact Olesen rode a hot putter to this strong T3 finish, gaining 6.9 strokes on the field, the second-best mark in the field on the greens. This result moved him up from 116th to 97th in the FedExCup Fall standings. Olesen now sits in position to retain his card for 2026, but it will be a battle over the final three events to do so. This result has to give him some positive momentum as he attempts to keep full status.

Nonetheless, his week at the 3M Open was highlighted by an ace on the par-3 eighth hole during Round 3, and he rose 13 spots to No. 116 in the FedExCup standings ahead of the upcoming Wyndham Championship.
