WM Phoenix Open Leaderboard And Live Updates: Hideki Matsuyama Maintains Slim Advantage Over Congested Field

FRONT NINE RECAP

It’s been an exciting start to the WM Phoenix Open on Sunday and, somehow, Hideki Matsuyama still leads despite not finding a single fairway off the tee and only hitting four greens through nine holes.

His short game has been on-fire, though, and sitting two-under for the day and 15-under for the tournament, he is one ahead of Si Woo Kim and Michael Thorbjornsen at 14-under.

Among the chasing pack are Viktor Hovland, Akshay Bhatia and Jake Knapp, while Scottie Scheffler is 11-under and four back of the leader.
