Ryo Ishikawa has never started his season this early, playing in the Sony Open for the first time. It's the start of what should be a long year, even by the Japanese star's standards.
Ishikawa is interested in taking up U.S. PGA Tour membership. He is one of the biggest draws, especially on the U.S. West Coast, and he already has received exemptions to the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines, the Northern Trust Open at Riviera, along with the Transitions Championship at Innisbrook.
The first three months are pivotal. (Japan Times)
