Kevin Na Not An Attractive Play At Sentry TC

Kevin Na will make his third career start at Kapalua, with his best finish being 12th in 2012. Na finished T13 at the Masters, but that was his only top-25 finish of the 2021 season. He is not long off the tee and ranks just 185th in strokes gained while approaching the green. One encouraging […]
