Nicklaus, Palmer, Woods, Player, Mickelson, Faldo... the list goes on. The US Masters is the most prestigious tournament in golf, to win is every golfers dream.
Every post-war golfer with five or more majors has won the Masters at least once, with the exception of Australian Peter Thomson, and Lee Trevino. Thomson only appeared in eight Masters tournaments and his five majors all came at The Open. Trevino famously disliked Augusta National, and often opted not to compete there.
But by and large, golf's legendary names all have at least one Green Jacket to their name.
Rory McIlroy completed his career grand slam in Augusta in 2025, after narrowly missing out on a green Jacket in multiple years prior, and then became the fourth golfer to ever win back-to-back green jackets by winning the 2026 tournament.
Here is a list of every winner of the The US Masters from its inception in 1934.
