Photos: 2023 Zozo Championship in Japan

Zozo Championship Japan Hideki Matsuyama Rickie Fowler Xander Schauffele Collin Morikawa Keegan Bradley United States the ZOZO Championship

The PGA Tour is several time zones away this week as a loaded field is set to tee off Thursday — or Wednesday night here in the States — in the 2023 Zozo Championship in Chibe, Japan, at Accordia Golf Narashino Country Club.

While defending champion Keegan Bradley has his sights set on going back-to-back, Xander Schauffele, Collin Morikawa, Rickie Fowler and home-country hero Hideki Matsuyama will have something to say about it.

Accordia Golf Narashino CC is a par-70 track measuring 7,079 yards. Schauffele, who has two top-10 finishes in three appearances at the Zozo, is the betting favorite at +700 (7/1).

Check out some of the best photos from the week in Japan below.
