Hey guys! Welcome to our channel: Luxury Plus
Collin Morikawa is an American golf player who is known from the PGA Tour. He started his PGA
career with 22 consecutive cuts, and that’s quite something, as only Tiger Woods succeeded in making
25. Morikawa has won the PGA Tour five times – two major championships, the 2020 PGA Championship
and the 2021 Open Championship. His descent is Japanese-Chinese. He made his debut as
a professional at the 2019 RBC Canadian Open, where he tied for 14th place. He won his first
PGA Tour at the Barracuda Championship – he beat Troy Merritt by three points.
In August 2020, he won the 2020 PGA Championship. He was the third-youngest
golfer to win the PGA Championship when he won the event at age 23. Morikawa was also
the fourth golfer to win the PGA Championship before turning 24 years old. In February 2021,
Morikawa won the 2021 WGC-Workday Championship at the Concession Golf Club in Bradenton, Florida,
and in July 2021 he won the 2021 Open Championship at Royal St George’s Golf Club in Kent, England.
So without any further ado, let's dive in:
Early Life: Collin Morikawa was born in 1997 in Los Angeles,
California, the son of Blaine and Debbie. He is of Japanese-Chinese ancestry, and has a
younger brother named Garrett. Morikawa went to La Cañada High School, and subsequently enrolled at
the University of California, Berkeley, where he played collegiate golf. At Berkeley from
2015 to 2019, he won five titles, including the Pac-12 Championship in the latter year.
Beyond his wins in college, Morikawa emerged victorious at such tournaments as the Western
Junior, Sunnehanna Amateur, Northeast Amateur, and Trans-Mississippi Amateur. He also played
on a number of successful teams, including the winning Arnold Palmer Cup team in 2017 and 2018,
the winning Walker Cup team in 2017, and the runner-up Eisenhower Trophy team in 2018. In 2019,
Morikawa graduated from Berkeley with a bachelor's degree in business administration.
Relationship: Katherine Zhu is his girlfriend. She has been by
his side since the time the pair met in college. Meanwhile, Collin was playing collegial golf at
UC Berkeley, Zhu was an undoubtedly excellent golf player in her own right at Pepperdine University.
She was an intelligent WGCA All-American scholar, who scored an average of 75.60 as a senior.
Zhu was born in Vancouver, British Columbia and has attended the Zhuji Hailiang private school in
China. Collin admitted that Zhu likes to compete with him, she claims that she beats him in "70%
of our chipping competitions". The happy couple often post pictures together on Instagram,
where Zhu has a huge fan following of around 50.000 followers.
Records: Age is no barrier to set records,
and Morikawa is a prime example. The #4 ranked golfer began his career with 22 consecutive cuts,
a record only eclipsed by the legendary Tiger Woods. He needed just six starts
to win his first PGA Tour victory, which came at the 2019 Barracuda Championship.
He won the 2020 PGA Championship at the age of 23, making him the third youngest winner after
Rory McIlroy and Jack Nicklaus. In February 2021, Morikawa won the Workday Championship,
making him the second youngest player to win both a major and a World Golf Championship event.
Move to las vegas:
Morikawa grew up in Southern California and made Las Vegas his home when he turned pro.
Choosing Las Vegas as his home was a pretty easy decision for Morikawa, who bought his first home
in Summerlin. As a lifelong Californian, he never gave any consideration to leaving the West Coast.
The key selling points for him were the fact he already knew a lot of people in Las Vegas,
and that there is such great food in town. Las Vegas is also an easy place to travel into and out
of, he said, and it gives him quick access to Los Angeles when he wants to go home to visit family.
Net Worth And Endorsements: Collin Morikawa is one of the most
successful golfers in the world and has been for a number of years now. He reportedly has a net worth
of around $7 million. He currently sits inside of the top-150 on the PGA Tour career money list with
just over $13m but given how young he is and how successful he has been in a short space of time.
For his two major victories he earned just under $4m and he also won the WGC-Workday
Championship which put an extra $1,820,000 in his bank account. As one of the best
players in the world, Morikawa also has several well-known and big sponsors.
His biggest is probably Adidas and he signed a multi-year contract with them back in 2019,
when he was still just an amateur. The deal was to wear Adidas footwear and apparel on the course.
The American is also contracted with TaylorMade and that deal was also signed in 2019. As far as
other sponsors go, Morikawa also has partnerships with Zurich Insurance and he has one with Omega
too. After he won the PGA Championship in 2020 he was spotted with two different Omega watches,
both of which were worth thousands of dollars. In 2021 he also linked up with the U.S. Bank.
U.S. Bank will serve as the premier bank sponsor for Morikawa with branding rights on his golf bag.
The bank will also work with Morikawa for production of TV,
digital, print and radio campaigns. Morikawa joins the ranks of golfers with an enviable
collection of cars from their sponsors. As he is a brand ambassador for Cadillac,
he was recently spotted with a brand-new Cadillac Escalade.

Championship – beating Troy Merritt by three points. On June 14, Morikawa tied for the lead

putt on the first playoff hole to lose to Daniel Berger. On June 26, Morikawa missed
his first cut on the PGA Tour at the Travelers Championship, ending a streak of 22 consecutive
cuts, the second-longest streak to start a professional career to the 25 made by Tiger Woods.
On July 12, Morikawa beat Justin Thomas in a playoff to win his second PGA Tour title at
the Workday Charity Open. The win was the first non-alternate PGA Tour victory for him. Morikawa
rallied from a three-shot deficit with three holes remaining, and made a 25-foot birdie putt on the
first playoff hole to stay alive, before winning with a par on the third playoff hole. On August 9,
Morikawa won the 2020 PGA Championship to win a major in only his second major championship start.
His final round of 64 tied the lowest final round score shot by a PGA Champion,
matching Steve Elkington in the 1995 PGA Championship. With his win,
Morikawa was the third youngest golfer to win the PGA Championship when he won the event at age 23.
Morikawa was also the fourth golfer to win the PGA Championship before turning 24 years old.
