Keita Nakajima was born on June 24, 2000, in Kazo, Saitama, Japan. He began playing golf at the age of six and quickly demonstrated considerable talent, leading to a distinguished amateur career. He attended Nippon Sport Science University. During his amateur years, he achieved significant milestones, including winning the 2018 Australian Amateur and the 2021 Japan Amateur Championship. Nakajima also secured both individual and team gold medals at the 2018 Asian Games. A notable aspect of his amateur career was holding the number one position in the World Amateur Golf Ranking for a record 87 weeks between 2020 and 2022, surpassing previous records. He was also the first male player to receive the Mark H. McCormack Medal twice, in 2021 and 2022.
Nakajima turned professional in 2022, making his PGA Tour debut at the Zozo Championship in the same year, where he finished tied for 12th place. His rookie professional season on the Japan Golf Tour in 2023 was particularly successful, marked by three victories: the ASO Iizuka Challenged Golf Tournament, the Yokohama Minato Championship, and the Mynavi ABC Championship. This performance led to him topping the Japan Golf Tour money list, and earning him the Most Valuable Player and Rookie of the Year honors for 2023. These achievements also secured him a card for the European Tour for the 2024 season, indicating a clear progression in his professional golf career.
In March 2024, Nakajima achieved his first European Tour victory at the Hero Indian Open, winning by a four-stroke margin. He continued to perform consistently on the European Tour in 2025, with runner-up finishes at the Porsche Singapore Classic and the Hero Indian Open, as well as a third runner-up placement at the DP World India Championship in October of that year. Throughout his career, he has accumulated total earnings of $1,162,773 on the PGA Tour, with 15 out of 32 cuts made. He maintains a World Rank (OWGR) of 93 as of 2026, demonstrating his continued presence among top international golfers.
