Collin Morikawa ends drought and wins the Zozo
It’s great to see Collin back in form and on top of the leaderboard. He hasn’t had a win all season this year and his Ryder Cup performance was less than stellar, but everybody knows he’s got as much talent as anyone else on the tour so it is very refreshing to see him back in the winner’s circle. It’s not the most important tournament, but it’s still a special win for Collin given his Japanese heritage and exactly what you want to see from him heading into next season.

Surreal that Collin Morikawa hadn't won since 2021. No PGA Tour wins in 27 months.
But breaking a drought by birdieing 18 to shoot the low score of the tournament (63) and win by 6 is a strong way to go.

“You have to remember to stay present.”
A powerful and emotional message from @collin_morikawa after his victory @zozochamp.
