Spieth, Thomas Headline First-Round Pairings at Kapalua

0
Justin Thomas and Jordan Spieth

The pairings and tee times have been drawn for the opening round of the 2018 Sentry Tournament of Champions.

Contested at Kapalua’s Plantation Course, the field includes seven of the top-10 ranked players in the world, including Nos. 1, 2 and 3 in Dustin Johnson, Jordan Spieth and Justin Thomas, respectively.

With an exclusive field comprised of only 2017 tournament winners, many of the groupings are marquee in nature, but some do have a bit more swag than others, headlined by the two most recent winners in Maui, Thomas and Spieth.

The 24-year old superstars, who captured the final two majors of 2017, have the final tee time of the day at 5:50 PM – right about the time that the Golf Channel starts its live broadcast.

World No. 1 Dustin Johnson, and Xander Schauffele, the PGA Tour Rookie of the year, are the penultimate pairing and will go off at 12:40 PM.

Rickie Fowler and Hideki Matsuyama are another high-profile duo, and join Thomas and Spieth as the only pairings with both players ranked in the World Top 10.
