It took a playoff, but the 2025 Hero World Challenge is in the books.
Hideki Matsuyama beat Alex Noren on the first playoff hole Sunday to win Tiger Woods’ event at Albany Golf Club in the Bahamas. Noren buries a birdie on the final hole to force a playoff with Matsuyama, and in the playoff, Matsuyama made a birdie after a great approach shot to bookend his year with wins at the Sentry and the Hero.
