Pro golfer Patton Kizzire qualifies for The Sentry, Jan. 2-5 at Kapalua’s Plantation Course
With his victory at the Procore Championship, Patton Kizzire became the most recent player to qualify for The Sentry, and 21 of the 24 Presidents Cup team members are currently qualified for the PGA TOUR’s annual trip to Maui. The Sentry returns to The Plantation Course at Kapalua Jan. 2-5, 2025.
Kizzire defeated David Lipsky to earn his third career TOUR victory at the Procore Championship, which snapped a winless drought of six years, eight months and one day (176 starts). The 38-year-old’s five-stroke victory marked the largest winning margin in tournament history, and largest on TOUR since Davis Riley won the 2024 Charles Schwab Challenge by five shots over Keegan Bradley and Scottie Scheffler. With the title, Kizzire qualified for his third trip to The Sentry, where he finished tied for 15th place in 2018 and tied for eighth place in 2019.
BMW Championship winner Keegan Bradley earned the clinching point for the US Team at the 2024 Presidents Cup, defeating Si Woo Kim in Singles, 1-up.
Of the 24 Presidents Cup team members, six have qualified for The Sentry by virtue of their victories (Bradley, Wyndham Clark, Hideki Matsuyama, Taylor Pendrith, Xander Schauffele, Scottie Scheffler), while 15 players (Byeong Hun An, Christiaan Bezuidenhout, Sam Burns, Patrick Cantlay, Corey Conners, Jason Day, Tony Finau, Brian Harman, Russell Henley, Max Homa, Sungjae Im, Si Woo Kim, Collin Morikawa, Adam Scott, and Sahith Theegala) qualified after finishing in the top 50 of the FedExCup Playoffs Points and Eligibility List.
