Summary
Collin Morikawa delivered a masterclass at the Travelers Championship, firing a stunning nine-under 61 to nearly force a playoff and finish just one shot behind the leaders. He even called his shot to his wife — and nailed it — showcasing his laser focus, especially on the rain-soaked final hole. With over six strokes gained on the field and a career-high level of putting, Morikawa’s resurgence is remarkable, especially considering his recent back injury that forced him to withdraw from a tournament and take time off. Now prioritizing clean contact over raw power, he’s proving his resilience — and even shared that he’s still not 100% recovered. With The Open Championship looming, he’s looking forward to rest, family, and celebrating his new baby — all while reminding us that focus, grit, and a little belief can turn dreams into dominant performances.
