Who is the in field of Sentry Tournament 2025?

The Sentry Tournament of Champions, the first event of 2025, has released its field of 60 players, but there’s a notable absence – world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler. Unfortunately, Scheffler had to withdraw from the tournament due to a hand injury he sustained on Christmas Day while preparing dinner. He underwent surgery to remove glass shards and is expected to be out for three to four weeks. In his absence, Xander Schauffele becomes the headliner, joined by other top golfers like Hideki Matsuyama and Max Homa, who set the PGA Tour record for longest drive (477 yards) at last year’s event.

The tournament boasts an impressive field, featuring 31 PGA Tour tournament winners, including 15 first-time winners, and 29 players who qualified by finishing inside the top 50 in the 2024 FedExCup standings. From the total $20 million purse, the first-place prize is worth $3,600,000. Defending champion Chris Kirk will be back to defend his title, but notable absentees besides Rory McIlroy, include Wyndham Clark, and Nick Taylor. The tournament will take place at the Plantation Course at Kapalua in Maui, marking the third time the event will feature an expanded field.
