LOS ANGELES -- The conversation began seven years ago when Japanese star Hideki Matsuyama won his fourth PGA Tour title to pass Shigeki Maruyama, his mentor. Maruyama told him the ultimate mark was nine tour wins, a record for most by an Asian-born player.
Matsuyama had little reason to believe that would come Sunday at Riviera.
Six shots behind to start the final round of the Genesis Invitational, Matsuyama delivered a record performance -- 9-under 62, the lowest closing round by a winner at Riviera -- to achieve the record that really mattered.
