Slowly but surely making his way up the 2026 WM Phoenix Open leaderboard, Hideki Matsuyama has an opportunity to pick up a victory for the third time at TPC Scottsdale. Having won the Hero World Challenge just a couple of months ago, Matsuyama has continued his strong play in Arizona, taking a one-shot lead into the final 18-hole stretch at the circuit’s biggest party of the year, as he looks to win his sixth straight tournament in which he singularly held the 54-hole lead.
Looking to chase him down is a four-man pack as 36-hole leader Ryo Hisatsune, Si Woo Kim, Maverick McNealy and Nicolai Hojgaard can all make up their deficit with a single stroke. Â Matt Fitzpatrick, Akshay Bhatia, Viktor Hovland, Min Woo Lee and Chris Gotterup are among those within four of Matsuyama, while Scottie Scheffler, who nearly missed the cut, has gone 65-67 in consecutive rounds to sit five behind as Sunday’s final round begins.
