Hideki Matsuyama Smashes Records with Historic 35-Under Victory at The Sentry

Hideki Matsuyama just notched his 11th PGA TOUR title at The Sentry, and wow, what a way to do it! He went all out with a jaw-dropping 35-under 257 at The Plantation Course in Kapalua, finishing three strokes ahead of Collin Morikawa and smashing the record for the lowest 72-hole score relative to par in PGA TOUR history. Pretty impressive! This event has been known for low scores, with the previous four lowest 72-hole totals also coming from The Sentry. The course's wide fairways and pristine greens really set the stage for low scoring rounds. Matsuyama took full advantage, racking up 33 birdies and two eagles—one being a spectacular 107-yard hole-out from the fairway. He only had two bogeys all week and went into Sunday with a one-stroke lead, wrapping things up with a stellar 8-under 65.
