Hideki Matsuyama elated with first PGA Tour win

Hideki Matsuyama has revealed that he is delighted to have secured his first win on the PGA Tour after winning the Memorial Tournament.

The 22-year-old edged out Kevin Na in a playoff on the 18th to become just the fourth Japanese player to win a PGA Tour event.

"To win my first PGA Tour event is enough," Matsuyama told ESPN. "But to win it here at Mr. Nicklaus' course, it really gives me a lot of confidence now going on.

"And hopefully, I'll be able to use this week as a stepping stone to further my career."

Matsuyama is currently ranked 24th in the world.
