Masters Green Jacket Brutally Upstaged as DP World Tour Winner’s Silverware Makes Golf Fans Erupt in Chaos

Yuto Katsuragawa triumphed in his maiden DP World Tour title at the ISPS Handa Championship in Japan. The Japanese golfer had a bogey-less final round and carded 7 birdies to put a final score of 17 under on the leaderboard. He was three strokes ahead of the runner-up, Sebastian Soderberg.

The world No. 434 received one of the best trophies in the golf realm with his 5th DP Tour victory at Taiheiyo Club Gotemba Course. Additionally, he became the second Japanese golfer to win on DPWT and now has his eyes set on the American Tour.

“I have practiced a lot to stand on the big stage. I can now go on the DP World Tour, which is really great, and I’m really happy with it. I’m aiming to become a member of the PGA Tour in the future.” said Katsuragawa. Further, he added, “I was very nervous on the back nine; my hands were shaking, but I trusted myself, and I managed to bring my golf.” 

“This course is beside Mount Fuji and very beautiful, but it is a challenging course, and I’m happy to win at a challenging course like this.” DP World Tour official X account has shared a happy picture of the 25-year-old winner proudly wearing his trophy, and fans couldn’t help but share their opinions on the winner putting on golf’s best celebratory outfit!

“Masters of the Universe vibes” expressions on the internet!

One golf enthusiast put off his thoughts with light humor, saying, “And he has to wear it while playing in his next tournament.” With this win, the golfer is ready to get an exemption into the upcoming PGA Championship at Valhalla; however, he needs to wear his victory outfit in the next tournament as well.

The next golf enthusiast compared the outfit with the heroic warrior He-Man franchise character; he wrote, “Masters of the Universe vibes.” Certainly, the outfit with the trophy gives off a superhero costume vibe and looks unique.

Another golf lover commented, “Absolutely stunting on Augusta.” Masters has a green jacket tradition, but this one looks more attractive with its dramatic designs. Comparing the golf event with a big party due to its designer costume and trophy, the other golf fan wrote, “BDE* *Big Drip Event”. 

The other one said, “Damn, honestly, I’d rather have this than the green jacket.” The Masters’ green jacket and the ISPS Handa Championship’s traditional wear have similar roots- traditions. Both have their different histories; however, due to the unique designs, the ISPS Handa Championship’s outfit and trophy have stolen the show.
