Matias Sanchez is an Australian pro from Melbourne who enjoyed a breakout season in 2025. A former standout amateur, Sanchez first made his name by winning the 2017 Australian Amateur, where he famously defeated current superstar Min Woo Lee in the final match at Yarra Yarra Golf Club.
After turning professional in 2019, Sanchez claimed his maiden professional title in October 2025 at the Webex Players Series South Australia. He led wire-to-wire after opening with a 63, eventually holding off veteran Adam Bland to win by two strokes. This victory was the centerpiece of a consistent 2025/26 campaign that also saw him record top finishes at the Queensland PGA Championship (T8) and the BMW Australian PGA Championship (T15), cementing his place near the top of the Order of Merit.
