A new season has begun on the PGA Tour, and while the setting at the Sentry remains pristine, laid-back and undisputedly Hawaiian, the stakes are high: a $20 million purse, with $3.6 million to the winner.

Hideki Matsuyama captured The Sentry in record-setting fashion, shooting 35 under for the week and setting a new record for score in relation to par and most birdies or better (35) in a single PGA Tour event. He topped Collin Morikawa by three shots, and his worst round of the week was an 8-under 65, which he did three times.

The big bird has landed! Taylor Pendrith did the unthinkable on Sunday at The Sentry: he made an albatross on the par-5 5th, holing out from 203 yards away. It’s the first time a PGA Tour player made a double-eagle at Kapalua,

It's the first albatross on tour in 2025, and it boosted Pendrith from 17 under to 20 under for the tournament. He added a birdie on 8, and as of current writing, he's playing No. 12 and tied for fourth place—well behind Hideki Matsuyama—but set up for a nice payday nonetheless, and gaining three strokes on a single hole certainly helped his cause.
