He was one shot ahead of Brian Harman and Jhonattan Vegas in strong wind on the Plantation Course at Kapalua. Rickie Fowler overcame a double bogey on the 13th hole with two straight birdies before finishing his round with an eagle on the final hole. He shot 69, along with Dustin Johnson and Si Woo Kim. Defending champion Justin Thomas opened with a 71. Jordan Spieth, who had never shot over par in 12 previous rounds at Kapalua, shot 75.
