Strong golfers still participate in the Sony Open, a tournament with the presence of many notable names, in the good group, including Henrik Norlander (Sweden), Harris English (USA), Taylor Pendrith (Canada).

In addition, the Sony Open 2025 also has the participation of Taylor Pendrith (USA) and especially Hideki Matsuyama (Japan), the champion of The Sentry a few days ago, and two-time bronze medalist at the Tokyo 2020 and Paris 2024 Olympics.

The total prize pool for the Sony Open 2025 is $8.7 million (about VND 221 billion). This is not a huge number, but it is not small either.

In addition, because the tournament is part of the PGA Tour system, golfers will be awarded points, thereby considering participation in the FedEx Cup play-off system at the end of the season.
