Hideki Matsuyama scores 8th PGA Tour win at the 2022 Sony Open

Hideki Matsuyama was 5 shots behind Russell Henley with 9 holes to play in the final round of the 2022 Sony Open in Hawaii. But he stormed back with a 31 on the back nine to force a playoff as the two played in the final group and then defeated Henley on the first extra hole, drilling a 3-wood from 276 yards to just 2 feet. The comeback began with a 7-footer for birdie on the 10th and a 12-footer for birdie on the 11th to cut the deficit to two after Henley made bogey on the 11th. Henley’s chance to win in regulation came from 10 feet on the 18th but the ball grazed the hole and didn’t drop.
