The Masters: The 2020 field in full

Seven months later than planned, the 84th edition of the Masters Tournament is just around the corner – and what an event it’s shaping up to be.

With Tiger Woods set to defend the Green Jacket – following his extraordinary victory in the opening men’s major of the season in 2019 – as well as Rory McIlroy taking aim at completing the career grand slam and much more, it promises to be as captivating as ever.

The field has been set in stone for several months.

Indeed, less than 48 hours after it was announced that this year’s coronavirus-impacted tournament would be taking place in the week beginning November 9, the Augusta National Golf Club confirmed the list of players that would be invited to take part.

A total of 96 golfers make up the field. It includes all of those who should have been playing in April, plus any
others – not otherwise exempt – who had made it into the top-50 on the
Official World Golf Rankings when the standings were paused temporarily on March 20.

Here’s a look at the players who have secured their invitations for this unique edition of The Masters…
