Hideki Matsuyama by 2 strokes
Listen up, sports enthusiasts. We're talking about The Sentry at Plantation Course at Kapalua here, surrounded by palm trees, fresh air, incredible views, and, of course, our favorite golf knickers in Maui, Hawaii.
Our scoreboard's top-tier features Sungjae Im, Hideki Matsuyama, and Collin Morikawa, quite an assembly of swinging savvy, I'd say. Now, don't go thinking last year's performance doesn't factor in here, Sungjae Im tied at 5th last year with a total score of -25, Morikawa at the same position nudging it a bit with his -25 under par. With their recent tour rankings and previous Sentry event results, note throwing a few winks and nudges in their direction wouldn't be awry.
Moving the spotlight to last round's masters of the greens, once again we see the names of Sungjae Im, Hideki Matsuyama, and Collin Morikawa crop up each carrying an impressive round score of -11. That, my friend, is no easy feat.
Now, for your personal meteor shower of golf knowledge, this year's prediction. We don't need a crystal ball to see that while an upset is always a possibility in the unpredictable world of golf, we're placing our bets firmly on Matsuyama. Coming hot from his last performance, his given odds make him a nice pick. And, oh boy, don't even get me started on the drama if it ends contrasting our prediction. The excitement, folks!
So, drumroll please...without further ado,
Albert’s Prediction: Hideki Matsuyama by 2 strokes
