Collin Morikawa's victory at the Zozo Championship 2023 was his sixth PGA Tour win. Morikawa spoke about the profound significance of this win, likening it to the feeling of securing his first-ever victory.

"It feels so good, I can't even explain it. I knew I was going to get here at some point. It's like getting your first win, your first Major," said Morikawa (via ESPN).

The win marked a turning point for Morikawa. He took a reflective stance on his career, seeking answers to the questions that had lingered after multiple second-place finishes.

"I had to really look back and ask myself what's wrong. What's the reasoning behind finishing second -- that versus a win? This win means the world. Being in Japan and being half-Japanese. A lot has come through over the past week," added Morikawa.
