2022–23 Fantasy Outlook
Wallace is one of the more effective players outside the top 100 in terms of earnings-per-event. He only needed 21 events this past season to comfortably settle within the top 150 on the money list, and his best finish was a T10 at the Rocket Mortgage Classic. The Englishman also notably claimed two top 10 finishes on the DP World Tour. If Wallace plays more golf in the U.S. this year, he could well climb the standings and money list for 2023.

Third-round 60 not enough to win
November 20, 2023
Wallace shot a three-under 69 in the final round of the DP World Tour Championship to finish in a share of second place.
ANALYSIS
Wallace took the 54-hole lead in Dubai after a truly incredible third round in which he shot 12-under 60 that included birdies on every hole on the back-nine. It's always hard to back up a round like that the next day, and while 69 wasn't terrible by any means, Wallace just didn't have the stamina on Sunday to match Nicolai Hojgaard who poured in nine birdies. This is still a great result for Wallace who moves up to 68th in the OWGR after closing the season strong on the DP World Tour. Wallace still has a card locked up on the PGA Tour for 2024 and will look to use this close to the year as momentum when he returns to the U.S.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2020
2019
After playing on the European Tour to start last season, Wallace focused his attention stateside in spring and flashed some great ball-striking with top-10 finishes at the Valero and Wells Fargo. The Englishman tends to skip the PGA Tour's fall and West Coast schedule while opting to play overseas, limiting his starts in the U.S. A well-rounded player who gained strokes in every category this season, he's capable of winning on Tour.
Wallace's first season as a PGA Tour member was a disappointing one for sure. He showed flashes on the European Tour through the prior two years, but in the 2019-20 PGA Tour season he only had one top-10. Wallace was top-15 in SG: Around, but below average in just about every other area. The fact that he sat outside the top 190 in both FIR percentage and GIR percentage was probably the most concerning.
Wallace only missed two cuts in 12 PGA Tour events last season, his highest finish coming at the PGA Championship where he was T3. He also had a good week at the Arnold Palmer Invitational, finishing T6. All told, he earned 461 non-member points for the equivalent of 105th place on the FedEx to earn his first PGA Tour card. The Englishman's season on the European Tour wasn't too shabby either, as he had three T3s. Wallace has shown he can hang with the big dogs in the big events. He should have no problem competing each time out this season should he choose to play a heavy load of PGA events rather than Euro events. This could be a breakout year for the 29-year-old Englishman. Keep an eye on Wallace, especially when the stakes are high, as this could be a breakout season for the 29-year-old.
