Held in Chiba, Japan, the ZOZO Championship is one of the few events in which the PGA Tour does not send the ShotLink equipment. Therefore, we do not have any strokes gained data to analyze. So there will not be any matchup or Showdown charts for this week.
As seen with the weather forecast below, windy conditions will be one of the main storylines for the second round. Players teeing off in the opening few groups may have a slight edge due to lesser winds. But with such condensed tee times, the advantage will be small. I have also included a chart with the best players in winds of 15+ mph since 2020.
