PGA Tour leaving Hawaii in 2027, ending a 56-year tournament streak

Our take

In a significant shift for professional golf, the PGA Tour has announced the departure of its Hawaii events, including The Sentry and the Sony Open, by 2027, marking the end of a remarkable 56-year tournament streak in the islands. This decision signals a new era for the Tour, with implications that extend beyond the greens. The Sentry and Sony Open have collectively generated an impressive estimated $150 million in annual economic impact for Hawaii, contributing significantly to the local economy and tourism. As the PGA Tour reconfigures its schedule, the loss of these cherished events raises questions about the future of professional golf in Hawaii and the cultural connection that has flourished over decades.
