After a disappointing summer, Hideki Matsuyama is rounding into form in the postseason. Matsuyama has gone T15-T4-15 in the three playoff events with 10 of 12 rounds in the 60s. Prior to the playoffs he also finished T35 at the PGA Championship and T11 at the Wyndham Championship.

This year is already the 26-year-old’s fifth Tour Championship start. His record shows results of 22-T12-5-T26.

On Tour, Matsuyama ranks 21st tee to green and is 75th or better in all the main strokes gained categories. His putting has improved from 174th in strokes gained last season to 58th. Matsuyama dealt with injuries earlier in the year but now appears healthy and more than capable of winning this week.
