  • The 2026 Sony Open in Hawaii had a $9.1 million purse.
  • The winner's share was $1,638,000.
  • Chris Gotterup won the first event of the season on the PGA Tour.

The PGA Tour returned, with the first event of the 2026 season, from Hawaii.

The Sony Open in Hawaii was Jan. 15-18 from Waialae Country Club in Honolulu. 

The course is relatively short, but also pretty narrow. This prevents scores from being super low. The winning score has been less than 20-under for four straight years.

Although not a PGA Tour signature event, plenty of big names were in the field, including Russell Henley, Collin Morikawa, J.J. Spaun, Ben Griffin, Keegan Bradley, Robert MacIntyre and Jordan Spieth.

Chris Gotterup pulled away during the final round thanks to a 64. He finished at 16-under, good for a two-shot win.

The event had a $9.1 million purse.
