Eighty-five Masters tournaments. Fifty-four different winners. And last year, a first.
When Hideki Matsuyama put his arms through the green jacket last April, he not only joined an exclusive company, he started one. His victory was the first major victory by a Japanese male golfer, and the significance was not lost on him.

“I hope it will affect golf in Japan in a good way,” he said in his winner’s press conference. “Not only those who are golfers already, but hopefully the youngsters who are playing golf or thinking about playing golf. I hope they will see this victory and think it’s cool and try to follow in my footsteps.
“Up until now, we haven’t had a major champion in Japan, and maybe a lot of golfers or younger golfers, too, thought, well, maybe that’s an impossibility. But with me doing it, hopefully that will set an example for them that it is possible and that, if they set their mind to it, they can do it, too.”
As this year’s Masters enters its final round, below is a list of all 54 winners. Starting with the first from Japan.
