Japan’s Hideki Matsuyama fired a stunning final round of 62 to win the Genesis Invitational and secure his ninth PGA Tour title.
Hideki Matsuyama carded a final round of 62 to take victory in The Genesis International, with Rory McIlroy finishing in a share of 24th spot.
LOS ANGELES — Hideki Matsuyama set the Riviera record for the lowest closing round by a winner Sunday in the Genesis Invitational, giving the Japanese star another record that means far more to him.
Rory McIlroy and Seamus Power carded rounds of 69 and 67 respectively and are both four-under par ahead of the final round of The Genesis Invitational, with Patrick Cantlay continuing to lead the way on 14 under.
Jordan Spieth admitted to signing for the wrong score at The Genesis Invitational at Riviera on Friday as the three-time major champion was disqualified for the first time in his career. The PGA Tour said that Spieth had signed at the end of the second round for a three on the par-three fourth hole when he had made a four. Spieth's disqualification was his first in 263 tournaments played on the PGA Tour. "Today, I signed for an incorrect scorecard and stepped out of the scoring area, after thinking I went through all procedures to make sure it was correct," the 30-year-old wrote on X, formerly Twitter. "Rules are rules, and I take full responsibility. "I love this tournament and golf course as much as any on the PGA Tour so it hurts to not have a run at the weekend."
Patrick Cantlay began with an eagle and never let anyone close to him the rest of the round Friday. He shot a 6-under 65 to build a five-shot lead at the Genesis Invitational going into a weekend that won't include Tiger Woods.
