Collin Morikawa’s last PGA Tour victory was the British Open in 2021 but his 6-under 64 to lead the Zozo Championship after the first round suggests the end of the American’s mini slump might be in sight.
FILE - Collin Morikawa hits from the 16th tee during the third round of the Tour Championship golf tournament on Aug. 26, 2023, in Atlanta. Morikawa’s last PGA Tour victory was the British Open in 2021, but his 6-under 64 on Thursday, Oct. 19, to lead Zozo Championship after the first round suggests the end of the American’s mini slump might be in sight.
“There’s obviously a little bit more meaning to this tournament for me,” he said. “But look, a win’s a win, I’ll take a win anywhere, right. I’m doing everything I can the next three days and kind of tonight to make sure I give myself the best opportunity to do that.”Phil Mickelson claims more players want to jump to Saudi-backed LIV GolfJapanese player Horikawa joked about looking up at the leaderboard and seeing a “kawa” on top — but that was Morikawa not Horikawa.
Morikawa took in one of Tokyo’s most famous sushi restaurants during his stay — Sukiyabashi Jiro — and he said he may never get over it.
