2021 Sony Open in Hawaii
US PGA Tour
Waialae Country Club
Honolulu, Hawaii
14-17 January 2021
Zach Johnson will be eager to win the Sony Open in Hawaii trophy for the second time.
The American star won this competition by two shots over Adam Scott and David Toms in January 2009 for his fifth victory on the PGA Tour.
Johnson has since recorded 12 victories on the PGA Tour including two major championships.

The 44-year-old lifted his first major title at the Masters Tournament in Augusta by a margin of two strokes over Tiger Woods, Retief Goosen, and Rory Sabbatini.
Johnson's score of 289 (+1) tied Sam Snead (1954) and Jack Burke Jr. (1956) for the highest winning score at the Masters.
The Iowa-born golfer then clinched his second major title when he lifted the Open Championship in 2015.
Johnson beat Louis Oosthuizen and Marc Leishman in a 4-hole playoff to win the tournament at St Andrews for his 12th PGA Tour win.
Furthermore, Johnson became only the sixth golfer to win majors at Augusta and St. Andrews, the others being Sam Snead, Jack Nicklaus, Nick Faldo, Seve Ballesteros, and Woods.

The Open Championship remains Johnson's last win on the PGA Tour and he reflected on his career ahead of the Sony Open in Hawaii.
“I feel like I have gotten the most out of whatever God-given talents I have, but I also feel like I still want to improve,” Johnson said.
“I’m not going to say that my best golf is ahead of me, but I also won’t sit here and say that my best golf is behind me. I’m all about trying to get better. That excites me.
“It's almost like you take those two major wins and start to paint a picture. And then you take my other wins and that’s a portion of it," he added.
"And then what I do off the golf course—and why I do what I do off the golf course—that adds to it. It’s like this collage of everything I’ve tried to do in my career. It glues everything together.”
