A big CONGRATULATIONS to Hideki Matsuyama of Japan for winning low amateur in the 2011 Masters!! Matsuyama is a native of Sendai, Japan–one of the hardest hit areas of the recent quake and tsunami.  It is an incredible and well deserved accomplishment.

Flashback:  In 2008, Matsuyama came to Hawaii to play for Japan in the USA-Hawaii Japan Junior Cup (now Asia Pacific Junior Cup).  His record is very impressive as he beat Aaron Tom and Bou-An Fujieki in the Four-Ball Match.  He also beat the very talented Alika Bell in Singles, but eventually lost his match with Risa Ogusu (Japan) to Kristina Merkle and Henry Park 2-up.  Hawaii eventually went on to win the Cup 24 1/2 to 19 1/2.
