5-8 January 2023
Scottie Scheffler will be hoping to win the Sentry Tournament of Champions for the first time in a bid to reclaim World number one spot.
The year 2022 proved to be a historic one for the American star as he recorded four victories on the PGA Tour including his first major win.
Scheffler earned his first career PGA Tour title after defeating Patrick Cantlay in a playoff at the WM Phoenix Open in February.

In March, the New Jersey-born golfer clinched two tournaments starting with the Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by Mastercard as he won by one stroke.
Scheffler then defeated Kevin Kisner at the World Golf Championships-Dell Technologies Match Play in Austin to claim the number one spot in the Official World Golf Rankings.
The World number two then won the Masters Tournament in April, defeating Rory McIlroy by three strokes and it was his first major win in his promising career.
Scheffler, who finished T13 in his lone appearance at the Sentry Tournament of Champions in 2021, was the runner-up at the Hero World Challenge earlier this month.

Norway's Viktor Hovland held off Scheffler with a final-round, 3-under-par 69 to win the Hero World Challenge which featured a small number (currently 20) of top-ranked golf professionals.
"I'm proud of how I played the back nine," Scheffler said when reflecting on his performance in the tournament which is hosted by Tiger Woods.
"I got some good looks and made some nice putts and it was good to kind of make a little run. Granted it wasn't enough, which definitely hurts,
"But it was nice to make a run."
Jack Nicklaus is the most decorated golfer in the history of the Sentry Tournament of Champions with four titles since the tournament's formation in 1953.
