Welcome to 2024, folks. And to start the new year, the PGA Tour is in Hawaii for the season’s first signature event, The Sentry.
The Plantation Course at Kapalua in Maui will once again play host, while the defending champion is not in the 59-man field.
Jon Rahm came from behind to defeat Collin Morikawa last year, but cannot defend his title thanks to his move to LIV Golf.
Some of the stars actually in the field include world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, Viktor Hovland, Patrick Cantlay, Max Homa, Xander Schauffele, Morikawa and Jordan Spieth.
Two notable names not teeing it up at the Plantation Course, Rory McIlroy and Justin Thomas.
Reminder, there is no cut this week.
