What Happened in the 2021 Masters Tournament
Ten years after he earned low amateur honors in The Masters, Hideki Matsuyama won the Green Jacket. He thus became both the first male Japanese golfer to win any of the pro majors, and the first Asia-born golfer to win The Masters.Matsuyama took a four-stroke lead into the final round, and about halfway through his final round pushed his lead to six strokes. But on the back nine, that lead began eroding as Matsuyama lost some strokes and Xander Schauffele made a run.
Schauffele ran off four consecutive birdies on Holes 12-15, and when they reached the 16th tee he trailed Matsuyama by just two. But Schauffele then hit into the water and triple-bogeyed the 16th.
Matsuyama took a two-stroke lead to the 18th tee, made bogey at the last, and won by a stroke over Will Zalatoris. Schauffele fell to a tie for third with Jordan Spieth.
Ian Woosnam, winner of the 1991 Masters, missed the cut in his final start in this or any of the majors.
