Matsuyama and Spieth Qualify for 2022 Sentry Tournament of Champions

Hideki Matsuyama and Jordan Spieth qualified for the 2022 Sentry Tournament of Champions after their recent PGA TOUR victories. Matsuyama and Spieth have qualified to join the other 14 TOUR winners next January when the Sentry Tournament of Champions returns to The Plantation Course at Kapalua.

Masters Tournament

Hideki Matsuyama earned his first career major championship title and sixth career PGA TOUR victory at the Masters Tournament this past weekend to become the first male major championship winner from Japan. Matsuyama snapped his winless drought of 1,344 days between wins (2017 World Golf Championships-FedEx St. Jude Invitational) and moved to No. 7 in the FedExCup standings. The Japan native became the third champion in the last five years to have previously earned low amateur honors (Tiger Woods, Sergio Garcia). The victory qualifies Matsuyama for his fifth trip to The Plantation Course at Kapalua, where his career-best finish came in 2017 (2^nd).

Valero Texas Open

The 2016 Sentry Tournament of Champions winner Jordan Spieth captured his first TOUR victory since winning The 2017 Open Championship, a span of 1,351 days, at the Valero Texas Open when he closed with a six-under 66 to beat Charley Hoffman by two strokes. The victory marked Spieth’s 12^th career TOUR title and became the fifth player in the last 40 years to reach 12 wins before turning 28 years old (Woods, Rory McIlroy, Justin Thomas).  Spieth became the 92^nd player in TOUR history to reach 12 wins and moves into a tie for 82^nd on the all-time wins list. With the victory, Spieth qualified for his fifth appearance at the Sentry Tournament of Champions.
