“It’s as special as it gets” - Colin Morikawa shares his thrilling first Wimbledon experience 

Collin Morikawa attended the 2023 Wimbledon in London as he prepares for the year's final golf major, The Open Championship, which begins next week. He had a good experience at the Tennis tournament, which he was attending for the first time.

He shared his exhilarating experience, saying:

"I've been telling every single person not about me going to The Open but me showing up to Wimbledon, obviously experiencing what Wimbledon has to offer and I think one of the bucket list items for a lot of people. So being here on grounds, it's as special as it gets."

Collin Morikawa missed this week's Genesis Scottish Open. His last appearance in a tournament was at the Rocket Mortgage Classic and he finished in second position, earning $783,200 in prize money.
