Scottie Scheffler will be chasing his third Masters title, winning in 2022 and 2024. He is currently the number one ranked golfer in the world.
Scottie has already secured a PGA Tour win this season at the American Express in January 2026. He took some time off for the birth of his second child and has not competed since The PLAYERS Championship in early March.
If there is one thing we know about Scottie, is that he can rise to the occasion.
Jon Rahm won the Masters in 2023. So far in the 2026 LIV Golf season he has finished second twice, and won his first LIV Golf individual title in Hong Kong.
During the 2025 season Jon Rahm finished T14 at the Masters, T7 at the U.S. Open, and T8 at the PGA Championship.
Rahm historically plays well on golf's biggest stages and will be one to watch this weekend.
Last year Bryson had his best Master's finish (T5), paired alongside Rory McIlroy during Sunday's final round. He has already won two U.S. Opens and is looking to add another major to the list.
Bryson DeChambeau is coming off back-to-back LIV Golf event wins in Singapore and South Africa. Known for his precision and strong power off the tees. Augusta will put Bryson's game to the ultimate test, as he tries to keep his winning streak alive.
Last year Rory's win at Augusta completed his career Grand Slam. Augusta has always been Rory's missing piece but this year he will try to defend his jacket.
Rory McIlroy is currently ranked #2 in the world and will be making his 17th appearance at the Masters this year. His best PGA Tour finish this season was T2 at The Genesis Invitational.
