We take a look at how Japanese TV reacted to Matsuyama's Masters Win as the country celebrated its first Masters champion and first male winner of a golf Major.
How Japanese TV Reacted To Matsuyama's Masters Win
Hideki Matsuyama won The Masters to become the first person from Japan to win at Augusta National. He is also the first man from Japan to win a golf Major.
It is a huge victory for the man and the nation as the country also celebrated Japanese golfer Tsubasa Kajitani winning the Augusta National Women's Amateur the week before.
There was also a fantastic clip as he holed the winning putt to secure Japan its first Masters champion and first male winner of a Major championship.
We all might need to polish up on our Japanese in the coming days and weeks as hopefully we'll be hearing plenty from Matsuyama and his interpreter as they react to the historic victory.
While Matsuyama seems like a quieter character than others on Tour, this great video from a few years ago shows him helping some of his fellow Tour pros with their Japanese language skills.
With the 2020 Summer Olympic games due to take place in Tokyo later this year, Matsuyama's victory will no doubt draw even bigger crowds to the men's golf event this summer.
