After conquering the Sony Open in January 2022,
Matsuyama quenched his thirst for victory that had lasted two years and one month and reached his 9th win on the PGA Tour.
With this win, Matsuyama surpassed Choi Kyung-ju (8 wins) and became the Asian player with the most wins on the PGA Tour.
By winning the Sony Open two years ago,
Matsuyama became tied for the most wins among Asian players along with Choi Kyung-ju,
and this time he became the owner of a new record.
Matsuyama was happy, saying, “One of my goals was to surpass Choi Kyung-joo’s eight wins.”
Matsuyama became the first Asian player to wear the Masters green jacket in 2021.
However, after winning the Sony Open, he suffered from back and neck injuries and had a difficult time.
