Birdies Galore in Hawaii
As the sun rose over the lush greens of Hawaii, Tom Hoge lit up the fairways with a nine-under opening round of 64 at The Sentry. Lunging ahead right out of the gate, Hoge birdied four of his first five holes, setting a blistering pace as he sought to establish not just a lead but a legend.
A Strong Start to the Season

With a total of ten birdies—yes, ten!—and just one bogey at the sixth, Hoge displayed a remarkable balance of precision and flair. As he navigated the course, birdies seemed to follow him like loyal fans, chanting his name with each impressive swing.

Their performances are nothing to scoff at, making the first day of this PGA Tour event a thrilling spectacle for golf enthusiasts. Will Tom Hoge manage to hold off the competition, or will the pressure to maintain his lead introduce unforeseen challenges?
