A star-studded field will tee it up for the first event of the PGA TOUR’s Opening Drive in 2025, with 31 prior PGA TOUR winners in action. 10 of the top 15 players in the world will be making their way to The Plantation Course at Kapalua, including World No. 2 Xander Schauffele, who had a 2024 to remember with two major wins at the PGA Championship and The Open. After winning at The Sentry in 2019, the 31-year-old has every reason to be confident at the first Signature Event of the season. Two-time winner of the event, Justin Thomas will be back in action this week. He has five top-5 finishes at The Plantation Course at Kapalua, with his last victory coming in 2020, where he topped Xander Schauffele in a dramatic playoff. Chris Kirk won his sixth PGA TOUR title at last year’s event and will be looking to become the first person to go back to back at The Sentry since Geoff Ogilvy in 2010. Other notable names to keep an eye on this week include Collin Morikawa, Ludvig Åberg, Hideki Matsuyama and Viktor Hovland.
