Japan’s Hideki Matsuyama overcame American Collin Morikawa at The Sentry, making a PGA Tour record to par for 72 holes by closing with an eight under 65.

His score of 35 under for the tournament gave him a three-shot victory over Morikawa on the Plantation course in Kapalua, Hawaii.

Matsuyama sealed the win with an eight-foot birdie putt on the par-5 18th hole, giving a small fist pump in celebration.

The putt broke Australian golfer Cameron Smith’s 2022 record at Kapalua by one.

Matsuyama’s win in Hawaii marks his 11th PGA Tour title.

England’s Harry Hall was the best of the British contingent, carding a three under 70 on Sunday to finish tied for eighth spot.
