Tom Hoge leads by one stroke after the first round as the 2025 PGA Tour season teed off at The Sentry in Hawaii.
The American shot a nine-under-par 64 to lead from compatriot Will Zalatoris and Japan’s Hideki Matsuyama.
The 35-year-old opened with four birdies in his first five holes, finishing the day with 10 birdies and a lone bogey on the sixth.
Matsuyama carded a birdie-eagle-birdie run on the back nine to move up the leaderboard, with Cameron Young, Collin Morikawa and Canada’s Corey Conners all two shots further back.
World number two Xander Schauffele, last year’s winner of The Open and US PGA Championship, is the highest-ranked player in the field and opened with a one-under 72.
The tournament brings together 31 PGA Tour winners and 29 players who finished inside the top 50 FedEx Cup standings last year.
World number one Scottie Scheffler, who won nine times last season – including the Masters – was ruled out after undergoing surgery to repair a hand injury sustained while cooking Christmas dinner.
