Hideki Matsuyama WITB: January 2025
Take a look inside the bag of PGA superstar Hideki Matsuyama.
Hideki Matsuyama has been one of the most consistent performers on the PGA Tour ever since he turned pro in 2013.
Matsuyama, 32, was the first Japanese golfer to win a men's major when he was triumphant at the 2021 Masters.
With ten PGA Tour victories to his name, he is also the most successful Japanese player in PGA Tour history.
Having enjoyed a prodigious amateur career where he earned the title of No.1 amateur golfer in the world, Matsuyama turned pro in 2013, and within his first year, he won five times on the Japan Golf Tour, becoming the first rookie ever to lead the end of season money list.
In 2014, Matsuyama then qualified for membership on the PGA Tour and quickly made a name for himself by winning the Memorial Tournament.
Matsuyama then went on to win four tournaments on the premier American circuit, including back-to-back victories at the Waste Management Phoenix Open, before he first tasted major success at the 2021 Masters.
Since then he has added a further four trophies to his cabinet, including the 2021 ZOZO championship, which he won in his home nation of Japan.
Matsuyama recently added to his win tally in Hawaii, securing The Sentry with an astounding 35-under finishing score.
Matsuyama has played 265 tournaments on the PGA Tour and earned over $59m in prize money.
The Japanese mega star is a Srixon brand ambassador but also uses a variety of clubs from other brands, including TaylorMade, Cobra and Scotty Cameron.
