Thatcher, a rookie on PGA Tour, started 2004 with very little success. However, things changed in the second half. He shot 66-68-68 during the Reno- Tahoe Open at Montreaux Golf Club to take the lead in the third round. To finish tied for sixth, he shot a final round of five-over par77 and earned $109,000. He finished 26th at the Bell Canadian Open at Glen Abbey Golf Course, Oakville, Ontario. However, he had one of his best rounds. He tied for 26th at the 84 Lumber Classic, and was tied for 27th at Greensboro’s Chrysler Classic of Greensboro. Thatcher was unable to finish in the top-125 of the PGA Tour money list due to his poor start and had to return to Q-School. He performed well at the PGA Qualifying Tournament, finishing in the top-10, and he retained his card for 2005.
Thatcher was therefore back on the Nationwide Tour in 2006. He started the year off well with a top-10 finish at the Jacob’s Creek Open Championship in Adelaide, Australia. He received a sponsor’s exemption to the PGA Tour’s Shell Houston Open and did well finishing 19th and receiving a $74,000 paycheck. Back on the Nationwide Tour, Thatcher also had top-10 finishes at the Xerox Classic and the PalmettoPride Classic. He ended up in 55th on the final 2006 Nationwide Tour money list. At the PGA Tour Qualifying Tournament he failed to earn his PGA Tour card for 2007.
On the Nationwide Tour in 2007, Thatcher got off to a slow start missing the cut three times in his first four tournaments. Things then improved tremendously as he had five top-25 finishes in a row, including a playoff loss to Nick Flanagan at the Henrico County Open where he earned $33,600. After another missed cut, he then had another three top-25 finishes, including a tie for 3rd at the LaSalle Bank Open in Chicago earning him another $43,500. On July 1, he won the 2007 Peek’n Peak Classic and set a new tournament record at 15-under-par. His victory was worth $108,000 and moved him from 10th into 4th place on the Nationwide Tour money list. He was also awarded the Nationwide Tour Player of the Month for June. Thatcher continued his hot play in July as he won for the second time in 2007. With a final score of 24-under-par, he won the Cox Classic by one stroke over Australian Jason Day. The victory earned him $117,000 and moved him into first place on the Nationwide Money list. Thatcher was not able to hold on to the number one spot on the 2007 Nationwide Tour money list though. After his win at the Cox Classic he played in 10 tournaments and only made five cuts. He led the money list going into the Nationwide Tour Championship at Barona Creek but finished in a tie for 29th place while Richard Johnson went on to win the tournament and money list crown. In 28 tournaments he recorded six top-10 finishes and fifteen top-25 finishes. Thatcher finished in 2nd place on the final 2007 Money List, earning his PGA Tour card for 2008. He also became only the third player in Nationwide Tour history to earn at least $400,000 in one year.
Thatcher finished in the top 10 on the Nationwide Tour with four finishes, including 2nd at the Price Cutter Charity Championship. He earned $48,200. He made 11 consecutive cuts to finish the year. He continued his excellent play by finishing tied for 28th at PGA Qualifying Tournament, earning him full exempt status on PGA Tour 2004.
