HIDEKI MATSUYAMA NEWS

Poor showing in home country Matsuyama shot a two-under 68 in the final round to finish in a tie for 46th place at the ZOZO Championship.

Impact It certainly was not the showing the home crowd was expecting from one of the game's top players and this now makes three straight finishes of T40-or-worse at the ZOZO Championship after logging a runner-up and a win in the first two editions of this tournament. Matsuyama was just out of sorts with the driver and ranked 54th in SG: Off-the-Tee and T73 in driving accuracy. He was also 60th in SG: Putting. It's unclear where Matsuyama might play to close out 2024, but you know he'll be looking forward to having a better showing than this.

T9 in season finale Matsuyama (back) closed with a four-under 67 on Sunday to finish in a tie for ninth place at the TOUR Championship.

Impact Matsuyama came into the week with some questions after he withdrew from the BMW Championship with a back injury.

Matsuyama started at 7-under-par as the three seed at the TOUR Championship, but never was able to stay with Scottie Scheffler. Matsuyama will look to rest his body and be ready for the Presidents Cup in a few weeks.
