Plays through broken toe in Hawaii Hovland (toe) closed with a three-under 70 on Sunday at The Sentry to finish 15-under and tied for 36th.

Impact Hovland managed to get through all four rounds at Kapalua despite a broken pinky toe, racking up 19 total birdies and two eagles across 72 holes. He ranked 12th among the field in driving distance, but Hovland finished just T45 in GIR percentage and 48th in SG: Around-the-Green. He's not teeing it up at the Sony Open in Hawaii this week, so Hovland's next start may come at the DP World Tour's Hero Dubai Desert Classic.

Status for The Sentry uncertain Hovland remains questionable to peg it Thursday at The Sentry after a broken toe diagnosis was confirmed, Eurosport's Espen Blaker reports.

Impact Hovland, who revealed last week that he broke his pinky toe against his bed frame, plans to make an attempt to manage the pain at Kapalua, where he's never placed better than T18 across four career appearances. Hovland's status will continue to be monitored ahead of Thursday's opening round at the 2025 kickoff event.

Reveals toe injury Hovland posted on Instagram a photo of an X-ray image of his right pinky toe with the caption "Bed frame 1 - 0 me", via Todd Kelly of Golfweek.

Impact The pinky toe does appear to be broken in the X-ray photo. It's unclear at this point if Hovland will miss any time because of it. He was listed in the first entry list dropped on Friday for The Sentry next week in Kapalua. Hovland did not play at all during the fall due to an undisclosed injury. His name being in the entry list suggests that Hovland was likely good to go from whatever the issue was in the fall, but the broken pinky toe does certainly raise new questions going into a 2025 season he hopes to bounce back and play like he did in 2023 when he won the FedExCup.
