SPORTS BRIEFING
OLYMIPIC
Report: Hotel will house Olympic athletes with
COVID-19 — Athletes at the Tokyo Olympics who come down
with minor symptoms of COVID-19 could be isolated in a
hotel lined up by local organizers of the games. The Japanese
news agency Kyodo on Sunday said organizers are working
to secure 300 rooms in a hotel near the Athletes’ Village. The
agency cited unnamed officials with “knowledge of the plan.”
The rooms would be for athletes and staff who do not need to
be hospitalized. The measures underline the risk during a pan-
demic. The Olympics are to open on July 23 and face strong
opposition from up to 80% of Japanese polled. The events will
involve about 15,000 athletes from more than 200 nations and
territories, and tens of thousands of other officials, judges, ad-
ministrators, media and broadcasters.

Seager HR in 9th, Mariners rally late from 6 down,
top Twins — Kyle Seager hit his second homer of the game,
a three-run drive in the ninth inning to complete the Seattle
Mariners’ comeback from a six-run deficit to beat the Minne-
sota Twins 8-6 Sunday. Seager had four hits and Taylor Tram-
mell also homered for Seattle, which trailed 6-0 going into the
sixth. The Mariners won a road series for the first time since
Sept. 11-13, 2019, at Arizona.

Masters
Continued from A5
All that mattered was that
uphill walk to the 18th green,
needing only to blast out of the
bunker and take two putts for
the victory.
And that’s what he did, soak-
ing in the moment with a few
thousand spectators on their
feat to celebrate a career-chang-
ing moment — for the 29-year-
old Matsuyama, and he hopes
for an entire country.
“Hopefully, I’ll be a pioneer
and many other Japanese will
follow,” Matsuyama said.
Will Zalatoris, the 24-year-ld
Masters rookie, holed an 18-
foot par putt on the last hole
for a 70 and was runner-up. It
was the best performance by a
first-timer to the Masters since
another Dallas kid, Jordan Spi-
eth, was runner-up in 2014 to
Bubba Watson.
Spieth had a few fleeting
thoughts of coming from six
shots behind except for too
many missed putts early and
missed opportunities late. He
bogeyed his last hole for a 70
and tied for third with Schauf-
fele, who shot a 72 with a triple
bogey and a double bogey on
his card.
Matsuyama finished at
10-under 278 for his 15th vic-
tory worldwide, and his sixth
on the PGA Tour.
He becomes the second man
from an Asian country to win
a major. Y.E. Yang of South Ko-
rea won the 2009 PGA Cham-
pionship at Hazeltine over Ti-
ger Woods.
Returning to the 18th green
for the trophy presentation, he
again put on the green jacket

Xander Schauffele bites his club after taking his second tee shot on the
16th hole during the final round of the Masters golf tournament on
Sunday in Augusta, Georgia. His first tee shot went into the water.
and raised both arms in tri-
umph. Augusta National al-
lowed limited spectators, be-
lieved to be about 8,000 a day,
and most might have remem-
bered him from a decade ago.
He won the Asia-Pacific
Amateur to earn an invitation
to the Masters, and he was low
amateur — tied with defend-
ing champion Phil Mickelson
that year — to earn a trip into
famed Butler Cabin. He won in
Japan as an amateur, and four
times after he graduated college
and turned pro. His first PGA
Tour victory was at the Memo-
rial in 2014, prompting tour-
nament host Jack Nicklaus to
say, “I think you’ve just seen the
start of what’s going to be truly
one of your world’s great play-
ers over the next 10 to 15 years.”
That moment came Sunday.
Matsuyama is not big on
emotion, and he speaks even
less even when cornered after
every round by the large con-
tingent of Japanese media.
Most of the media was
absent this year due to

COVID-19 travel restrictions,
and Matsuyama had said on
the eve of the final round that it
has been a lot less stress.
There was plenty on the golf
course, right from the start.
Matsuyama sent his opening
tee shot into the trees right of
the first fairway. He punched it
under the trees from the pine
straw, hit a soft pitch that rolled
down the slope away from the
pin and was happy to leave with
bogey. Two groups ahead of
him, Zalatoris opened with two
straight birdies.
Just like that, the lead was
down to one.
No one got any closer un-
til the final hour. Matsuyama
made birdie from the front
bunker on the par-5 second
hole. He didn’t make another
birdie until the par-5 eighth,
and it didn’t matter because no
one could put any pressure on
him.
Zalatoris misjudged the
speed on No. 3 and three-
putted for bogey from just off
the back of the green. Schauf-
fele was within three of the lead
going to the third hole, only
to go bogey-bogey-double bo-
gey on the toughest three-hole
stretch on the course.
Matsuyama delivered what
appeared to be a knockout
punch with a nifty up-and-
down from right of the green
on the eighth for a tap-in
birdie, and a lob wedge to the
dangerous left pin on the ninth
that rolled out to 3 feet. That
sent him to the back nine with
a five-shot lead.
For the longest time, it
looked as though Matsuyama
couldn’t wait to get to Butler
Cabin and see how he looked
in green.
Schauffele, however,
rammed in a 20-foot birdie putt
from behind the 12th green.
He two-putted from 10 feet
for birdie on No. 13. He nearly
holed out from the fairway for
a tap-in birdie on the 14th. And
with he nearly holed his green-
side bunker shot on the par-5
15th for a fourth straight birdie.
And then all that that
worked ended when his ball
disappeared below the surface
of the pond.
Matsuyama could afford a
few bogeys, and all that affected
was the final margin. He is the
Masters champion, a major
that defines his elite status in
the game and gives Japan the
biggest week it has ever had in
April. The week started a week
ago Saturday when Tsubasa Ka-
jitani won the second Augusta
National Women’s Amateur.
Matsuyama wasn’t around
to see it, but he was well aware
of it. All he wanted was to fol-
low her path and made Japan
proud. His play spoke volumes.

Zalatoris’ Masters debut
ends just a shot back
BY TIM REYNOLDS
Associated Press
AUGUSTA, Ga. — Maybe
the first hint that Will Zala-
toris had what it took came
when he was 6, and Ken
Venturi went over to him on
a driving range to show him
a grip that he hasn’t changed
since. Or maybe it was at 11,
when a pro named David
Price said he could be great if
he put in the work.
Or maybe it was Sunday,
when the 24-year-old fin-
ished alone in second at the
Masters.
Either way, the secret is out
now. A skinny kid with mop-
top blonde hair and an un-
flappable sense of California
cool finished only one shot
behind Hideki Matsuyama
at Augusta National, his final
round of 2-under 70 getting
him to 9 under for the week
and into the spotlight for as
long as he wants.
“I’ve wanted to be in this
position my entire life,” Zala-
toris said. “I don’t need to
shy away from it now. I’ve
made it this far. Why now be
timid? I thought I did a really
good job of enjoying the mo-
ment but not letting it get to
me, too.”
Zalatoris says he’s watched
Sunday at the Masters 24
times, which is probably no
more than a slight under-
statement. First, while it is
possible that he watched the
1997 final round when Tiger
Matt Slocum/AP
Will Zalatoris tips his cap after
the final round of the Masters
on Sunday in Augusta, Georgia.
Woods won the first of his
five green jackets, it should
be noted that Zalatoris was
about 8 months old when
that happened. And he didn’t
watch this year’s final round
because, well, he was playing
instead.
But let these numbers
illustrate how much his
life has changed, and how
quickly it happened: In April
2019, he finished 61st in
an event called the Dormie
Network Classic and earned
$1,408. In April 2021, he fin-
ished second at the Masters
and earned $1,242,000.
“I just took as many men-
tal images in my mind, be-
cause I’ve watched this tour-
nament for as long as I can
remember,” Zalatoris said.
“And the fact that I was a
part of it is pretty special, and
the fact that I contended is
even cooler.”
