Hideki Matsuyama won the Masters at Augusta National Golf Club on Sunday to become the first player from Japan to claim a men's major championship.
Matsuyama finished one stroke ahead of American rookie Will Zalatoris after carding four birdies and five bogies for a final-round 73 and finished the tournament at 10-under.
He started the final round 11 under par with a four-stroke lead over four golfers — England's Justin Rose, Australia's Marc Leishman and Americans Xander Schauffele and Zalatoris.
Matsuyama survived some late slip-ups, and a determined challenge down the back nine from Schauffele, who finished 7-under, to claim the iconic green jacket in dramatic fashion.
The 27-year-old Schauffele carded four straight birdies before his challenge ended with a triple-bogey on the par-3 16th.
