Hideki Matsuyama chased down Russell Henley at last year’s Sony Open in Hawaii, a run that included one of the best 3-wood strikes of the season. The 2021 Masters champ will return to Waialae next week for the 2023 edition, as will several other big names.
Jordan Spieth and world No. 15 Tom Kim are set to join Matsuyama, with Henley, Corey Conners, Billy Horschel and Adam Scott also on the list.
Waialae Country Club is a par-70 layout measuring just over 7,000 yards. The golf course was originally designed by Seth Raynor before being restored recently by Tom Doak (2017).
It’s the first full-field event of 2023. Check out the entry list below.
Commitments to the Sony Open in Hawaii (January 12-15) include defending champion Hideki Matsuyama, 13-time PGA TOUR winner Jordan Spieth and World No. 15 Tom Kim.
