2026 Masters Full Field: 91 Heading to Augusta National for the Season’s First Major

The 90th Masters begins Thursday at Augusta National, marking the unofficial start of spring for many and, for golf’s best players, the first of four opportunities at immortality in 2026.

A green jacket awaits the winner of the season’s first major. Rory McIlroy, of course, won a year ago, completing the career Grand Slam and becoming the sixth man to join golf’s most exclusive club. He will host the Masters Champions Dinner on Tuesday—the menu looks delicious—then will get down to the business of trying to become the first back-to-back winner since Tiger Woods in 2001–02.

World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler will chase a third green jacket, hoping to continue an every-other-year title run (2022, 2024). He skipped the Houston Open two weeks ago while on baby watch; indeed his second son arrived and the entire family is now in Augusta, Ga.

A total of 91 players are in the field. Six amateurs are competing, including U.S. Amateur champion Mason Howell. Eighteen past champions are scheduled to play: McIlroy, Scheffler, Jon Rahm, Hideki Matsuyama, Dustin Johnson, Patrick Reed, Sergio Garcia, Danny Willett, Jordan Spieth, Bubba Watson, Adam Scott, Charl Schwartzel, Angel Cabrera, Zach Johnson, Mike Weir, Vijay Singh, Jose Maria Olazabal and Fred Couples.

Three-time champion Phil Mickelson announced last week he will not be competing due to a family matter, while five-time champion Tiger Woods is not playing in the wake of a car accident on March 27 where he and another motorist were uninjured but Woods was charged with DUI.

The last man to qualify by winning his way in was Gary Woodland, a popular champion in Houston. One final bid was available to the winner of the Valero Texas Open but it was left unclaimed as champion J.J. Spaun was already in the field by virtue of his U.S. Open win last year.
