Hideki Matsuyama turned professional in 2013 and became the first Japanese man to win a major championship at the 2021 Masters. He has collected multiple PGA Tour wins since his rookie season, including the 2024 Genesis Invitational, and represented Japan at the Tokyo and Paris Olympics. The bag tells a single-brand story on the long stuff. Srixon has been the driver across every snapshot on file, moving from the ZX5 in April 2021 to the ZX7 later that year, then the ZX5 MKII and ZX5 MKII LS through 2024, and now the ZXi LS at 9 degrees with a Graphite Design Tour AD DI 8 TX. The Z-Forged irons have been a fixture since 2021, updated to the Z-Forged II by early 2024 and still in play. Scotty Cameron has handled putter duty throughout, cycling from a Newport 2 GSS through several prototypes to the current GSS Prototype. Srixon Z-Star XV is the only ball listed across nine snapshots.

Bag History

9 snapshots tracked, 2021-2025

Across nine snapshots dating to April 2021, Matsuyama has stayed entirely with Srixon for driver, irons, and ball, while Scotty Cameron has been the constant in the putter slot. The driver line moved ZX5 to ZX7 to ZX5 MKII to ZX5 MKII LS and now ZXi LS, and the irons stepped from Z-Forged to Z-Forged II. The putter rotated among a Newport 2 GSS and several Scotty Cameron prototypes before landing on the current GSS Prototype, with Srixon Z-Star XV holding the ball spot the entire stretch.
