The Clubs Hideki Matsuyama Used to win the 2021 Masters: First Japanese Major Winner
Introduction
Congratulations to the first Japanese male player to win a major. Hideki Matsuyama managed to cross the line despite a few wobbles at the Augusta National Golf Club.
Matsuyama is one of those players that like to test numerous clubs and so it’s not unusual to find different clubs in his bag from week to week.
His main club sponsor is Srixon So it’s no surprise to find a number of their clubs in his bag.
