The Sentry returns to The Plantation Course at Kapalua from Jan. 2-5 with 60 of the PGA Tour’s best committed to the 2025 FedExCup’s season-opening event.

As the first of eight signature events of the season, the Sentry welcomes PGA Tour winners from the previous season, including FedExCup Fall winners, and the top 50 players in the FedExCup standings through the FedExCup Playoffs in August.

The field features four FedExCup Champions, 31 PGA TOUR tournament winners, including 15 first-time winners and 29 players who qualified via finishing inside the top 50 in the 2024 FedExCup standings.

World No. 1 and 2024 FedExCup Champion Scottie Scheffler, who won seven PGA Tour titles in 2024, underwent surgery to remove glass fragments from his right palm and is unable to compete. Three additional eligible players — Tommy Fleetwood, Shane Lowry and Rory McIlroy — are also not competing.
