The 89th Masters Tournament is set to tee off Thursday at the Augusta National Golf Club and the coveted green jacket is up for grabs.
Two-time major winner Scottie Scheffler, the defending champion and the early favorite to win the 2025 Masters, is vying to become the first golfer to win back-to-back Masters tournaments in more than two decades. Tiger Woods was the last golfer to win consecutive green jackets in 2001 and 2002. Woods is not participating in this year’s tournament after rupturing his left Achilles last month. (He also missed the Masters Champions Dinner.)
Four-time major champion Rory McIlroy has emerged as a top contender and is looking to break through to claim his first Masters title and first major since 2014. McIlroy tied for 22nd place at Augusta National in 2024. His best result at the Masters was a runner-up finish in 2022, but he missed the cut entirely in 2023.
