News summary

Hideki Matsuyama triumphed at the FedEx St. Jude Championship, recovering from a dramatic collapse that saw him lose a five-shot lead in just four holes. After starting the final round at TPC Southwind with a commanding lead, Matsuyama faced significant pressure when he stumbled on the back nine, including a three-putt bogey and a double bogey that dropped him behind Viktor Hovland. However, he regained composure by sinking crucial birdies on the 17th and 18th holes, ultimately finishing at 17-under par, two strokes ahead of Hovland and Xander Schauffele. This victory marks the 10th title of Matsuyama's PGA Tour career, following a challenging week where he had to adapt after his caddy and coach were robbed in London. The tournament was particularly intense as it not only determined the playoff standings but also impacted players' chances of advancing to the next events. Nick Dunlap secured his spot in the top 50, which allows him to play in the upcoming BMW Championship.
