1 day ago Donald Kolakowski This is the 89th edition of the Masters. Nearly three quarters of green jackets have been won by golfers from the USA (73%, 64 out of 88), ahead of Spain (6) and South Africa (5). Jack Nicklaus holds the record for most wins at the Masters (6), ahead of Tiger Woods (5). Woods is the youngest player to win the green jacket (21 years, 104 days in 1997) whilst Nicklaus is the oldest – he was 46 years and 82 days old when he won his last major in 1986. Thirty-three of the last 35 majors have been won by a U.S. or European golfer. The two exceptions are Japan’s Hideki Matsuyama at the 2021 Masters and Australia’s Cameron Smith at the 2022 British Open. The last seven major tournaments have been won by U.S. players: Brooks Koepka (2023 PGA), Wyndham Clark (2023 U.S. Open), Brian Harman (2023 Open Championship), Scottie Scheffler (2024 Masters), Xander Schauffele (2024 PGA and Open Championship) and Bryson DeChambeau (2024 U.S. Open). It’s the longest streak of major wins by the U.S. since the 1970s (13 consecutive victories from 1974 to 1977). Only one of the last 11 Masters tournaments has been decided by a playoff (Sergio Garcia versus Justin Rose in 2017). A playoff was required in three of the previous five editions. Scottie Scheffler aims to become the first golfer to win back-to-back Masters since Tiger Woods (2001-02); the only other golfers to achieve that feat are Jack Nicklaus (1965-66) and Nick Faldo (1989-90). 2022 and 2024 Masters champion Scottie Scheffler has secured a top-10 finish in 12 of his last 18 major tournament appearances (67%). That’s more top 10s at majors than any other golfer since 2020. Xander Schauffele was 32-under par across the four majors in 2024, the best total to par and 15 strokes ahead of any other player to make the cut at all four events (Scottie Scheffler, minus-17). He also became the first golfer to win multiple majors in the same year since Brooks Koepka in 2018. Since the 2022 PGA Championship, Xander Schauffele has played in 11 major tournaments and has never finished outside the top 20. This includes a top-10 finish in six of the last eight majors. Collin Morikawa is the only golfer other than Scottie Scheffler to have had a top-10 finish in each of the last three Masters tournaments. With a win at the Masters, Rory McIlroy would become the sixth golfer in history with a career Grand Slam, after Gene Sarazen, Ben Hogan, Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods. His last major victory was the 2014 USPGA Championship – he’s won none of the subsequent 38 majors in which he has appeared, the longest drought of his career. Rory McIlroy is the only multiple winner so far on the PGA Tour in 2025. He won the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am in February and the Players Championship in March.

He is still the only male Japanese golfer to claim a major championship. With a win at the Masters, Brooks Koepka would complete the Grand Slam of U.S. major tournaments and sit alongside Byron Nelson and Ray Floyd as the only golfers to win all three U.S. majors but not the British Open. Brooks Koepka currently holds five major victories (USPGA three times, U.S. Open twice). Among the current active golfers, only Tiger Woods (15) and Phil Mickelson (6) boast more major titles. It’s been 30 years since Tiger Woods first appeared in a major. He finished tied for 41st at the 1995 Masters, when he captured the low amateur crown. However, he’s not playing in this year’s tournament due to injury, which means he will have missed 47% of all major tournaments since the beginning of 2016 (17 out of 36). This is Justin Thomas’ 10th Masters appearance, with his best finish coming in the COVID-impacted tournament in 2020 (fourth). He’s missed the cut five times in his last eight major tournaments, including each of the last couple of years at Augusta. Bryson DeChambeau’s finish (tied for sixth) at Augusta last year was his first in the top 20 at the Masters. His last three major appearances on U.S. soil have seen him finish tied for sixth, second and first.

(AP Photo) Patrick Cantlay (low amateur in 2012), Bryson DeChambeau (in 2016) and Viktor Hovland (in 2019) will attempt to become only the eighth golfer to win low amateur and a green jacket, after Cary Middlecoff, Jack Nicklaus, Ben Crenshaw, Phil Mickelson, Tiger Woods, Sergio Garcia and Hideki Matsuyama. This week’s Masters will mark Adam Scott’s 94th consecutive major championship appearance. He has not missed a single major over the last 25 years, since the 2001 Open Championship won by David Duval. Joaquín Niemann is the only multiple winner so far in the LIV Golf League in 2025 – he won the Adelaide and Singapore events. However, in his 22 major tournament participations, the Chilean golfer has never had a single top-10 finish – his best was a tie for 16th at Augusta in 2023. Ludvig Aberg’s only previous Masters appearance was in 2024 (second) – it was also his first major. So far, only one male Swedish golfer has won a major tournament: Henrik Stenson at the 2016 Open Championship. Wyndham Clark has only had one top-30 finish in 12 majors played; it was his victory at the 2023 U.S. Open. Since winning the Masters in 2020, Dustin Johnson has had twice as many missed cuts (6) as top 10s (3) in the majors. Fuzzy Zoeller is the last player to win the Masters on his first attempt in 1979.For more coverage, follow us on social media on Instagram, Bluesky, Facebook and X.
