Who is in the field for The Masters this year? How have players secured an invite to Augusta National?
Here's the confirmed line-up for the opening major of 2026, live on Your Site…
There are 92 players - as of April 1 - scheduled to feature from April 9-12, where Rory McIlroy returns as defending champion after last year's dramatic play-off victory over Justin Rose to complete the career Grand Slam.
World No 1 Scottie Scheffler is the pre-tournament favourite to win the event for a third time in four years, while Bryson DeChambeau and Jon Rahm are among the LIV Golf League contingent chasing further major success.
Woods was already an injury doubt, having undergone Achilles surgery last March and back surgery last October, with the former world No 1 still yet to return to competitive action since missing the cut at The Open in July 2024.
Five more players saw their Masters invites confirmed at the Texas Children's Houston Open on Sunday, where .
Daniel Berger, Jake Knapp, Nicolai Hojgaard and Matt McCarty stayed inside the top 50 in the Official World Golf Ranking (OWGR) to earn their Masters spots, with the final place going to the winner of the Valero Texas Open - if not already exempt - on April 5.
The top 50 in the world at the end of the previous calendar year earn an invite, as do those inside the top 50 during the week before the tournament takes place, while previous winners hold a lifetime exemption and any other major winners from the last five years are also included.
The top 12 and ties from last year's Masters are allowed to return, as are the top four and ties from the other three majors in 2025, with every winner of PGA Tour events that award a full-point allocation towards the season-ending Tour Championship also get a spot.
A new exemption category for this year's contest has seen additional invites given to winners of six national Opens - the Genesis Scottish Open, Spanish Open, Japan Open, Hong Kong Open, Australian Open and the South African Open.
The last three winners of The Players and all qualifiers for last season's Tour Championship are included, plus the champions of several of the world's biggest amateur titles, while The Masters committee can invite an international player who has not qualified.
Invites are given to the two finalists of the US Amateur and the winner of The Amateur Championship, along with the winners of the Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship, Latin America Amateur Championship, the US Mid-Amateur and the NCCA Division 1 Men's Individual Champion.
