Brian Harman and Chris Kirk top PGA Tour power rankings for 2024 Sony Open in Hawaii

Brian Harman and Chris Kirk have topped the power rankings of the 2024 Sony Open. With the conclusion of The Sentry, PGA Tour golfers will head to the second event of the year, which will take place this week.

The 2024 Sony Open is scheduled to start with its opening round on Thursday, Jan. 11, and will run through the weekend to conclude on Sunday, Jan. 14, at the Wai'alae Country Club in Hawaii. It has a purse of $7.9 million.

Ahead of the tournament, the PGA Tour has unveiled its power rankings. Brian Harman has topped the list. He has competed in the last few editions of the Sony Open. However, he could only have one top-10 finish, which was recorded in 2018. Nonetheless, the American golfer has been in good form and won a Major last year. He could win the Sony Open in 2024.

Another golfer who is ranked among the top five in the PGA Tour power rankings is Chris Kirk, the winner from last week. He has also played in the Sony Open previously and has two second-place finishes. He finished second in 2014 when Jimmy Walker registered a one-stroke victory over him and then again was the runner-up in 2021 when Kevin Na won the tournament.

Here are the power rankings for the 2024 Sony Open (as per the PGA Tour):

• 1. Brian Harman
