The PGA Tour's 2025 season gets underway this week with its annual stop at Kapalua
The flip of the calendar brings a new PGA Tour season as the top 60 players from the 2024 campaign make their way to the Plantation Course at Kapalua for the 2025 Sentry. No longer exclusive to tournament winners from the previous season, the Sentry will host those winners as well as those players who finished inside the top 50 of the FedEx Cup standings.
While a number of stars are set to make their way to Hawaii for the season-opening event, there are some notables who are not. World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler had to withdraw from the tournament last week when news was shared that he injured his hand while preparing Christmas Day dinner. Undergoing surgery to remove small broken glass fragments from his right palm, Scheffler will not be present at the Sentry and hopes to return in a few weeks' time for The American Express.
Rory McIlroy, Tommy Fleetwood and Shane Lowry are also not in the field; they typically begin their years on the DP World Tour. In their place is the man who could do no wrong in 2024: Xander Schauffele. The two-time major champion headlines the action and aims to keep the momentum rolling following a career-changing season.
