Two of the best ball strikers in the game have risen to the top of the leaderboard in the PGA Tour's opening event
There are few sights in golf more beautiful than the Plantation Course at Kapalua, but the play of a locked-in Hideki Matsuyama may give it a run for its money. Matching his opening 8-under 65 on Thursday with another on Friday, Matsuyama surged to the top of the leaderboard at the 2025 Sentry and reached 16 under to command a one-stroke lead over Collin Morikawa after Round 2 in Hawaii.
"Obviously the views are beautiful here," Matsuyama said. "I haven't played well here in awhile, so it's good to get off to a good start here."
Coming off a stellar season that was perhaps overlooked due to those of Scottie Scheffler and Xander Schauffele, Matsuyama has made his presence known early in 2025. While his opening 65 showed off a brand-new putter, his follow-up act was all about his typically reliable tee-to-green game.
