In the Hero World Challenge finale, Matsuyama surged from a tie at 22-under with Alex Noren to win after a clutch playoff, carding a birdie on the first playoff hole following a late surge that included birdies and an eagle on the 10th hole.

Sepp Straka finished third at 267 after a 68 in the final round, while World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler shot 68 to tie for fourth at 20-under, his season opening with some rust from the Ryder Cup.

This win marks Matsuyama’s third time taking Woods’ trophy and solidifies him as a season finisher who closed strong with a bogey-free final round and a decisive playoff performance.

Reporting on the event comes from WMBB Panama City Sports with aggregation and regional context provided by Spot On Florida.

Scheffler spoke of progress in his offseason work and expressed satisfaction with his form, even as he didn’t claim the title.
