The PGA Tour is back. In Hawaii. Cue the beautiful images of the best players in the world playing at Kapalua’s Plantation Course with the water and waves in the background.
Fifty-nine players made the journey to Maui. They’ll be competing for $20 million with the winner taking home $3.6 million for a victory in the signature event.
Chris Kirk walked away with the victory last year after shooting a final-round 65 to top Sahith Theegala. No one has defended their title here since Geoff Ogilvy back in 2009-10. Xander Schauffele (2), Collin Morikawa (4), Ludvig Aberg (5), Hideki Matsuyama (6), Wyndham Clark (7) and Viktor Hovland (8) are the top-10 players in the field.
Those who qualified but opted not to play are Tommy Fleetwood, Shane Lowry, Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler. Scheffler, the tour’s player of the year for 2024. He announced last week that he injured his right hand when helping prepare a Christmas dinner at home in Texas.
Here is the rundown of what each player will get this week in Hawaii. Check back here Sunday shortly after play is complete for updates.
