Qualifiers for The Sentry 2026
Hideki Matsuyama
Matsuyama made an 8-foot birdie putt on the par-5 18th hole at The Plantation Course at Kapalua, lightly pumping his fist in about the only emotion he showed all week. That put him at 35-under 257, breaking by one the 34-under par by Cameron Smith set at Kapalua in 2022.
Nick Taylor
Taylor and Nico Echavarria matched 16-under totals at Waialae Country Club, requiring overtime to decide a champion. Both players made birdie on the first playoff hole, the par-5 18th at Waialae, but Echavarria missed a 7-foot birdie on the second extra hole, also No. 18. Taylor converted from 3 feet for the win after a sublime 46-yard pitch from short of the green.
