Here are the Players Who Have Been Invited to the Masters…So Far

It's never too early to start thinking about the Masters. Here's every player who's received an invite so far.

In less than 90 days, the best players in the world will be putting pegs in the ground of Augusta National’s first tee box for the opening round of the 2026 Masters. I can already see the Georgia Pines every time I close my eyes. We’re so, so close, folks.

Rory McIlroy will drive down Magnolia Lane as the defending champion—I will never get tired of writing that—hoping to become the first player to slide into back-to-back Green Jackets since Tiger Woods in 2001 and 2002. I wonder what he’s going to serve at his Champions Dinner?

Anyway, because it’s never too early to start thinking about golf’s annual migration to Augusta, Georgia, I thought we could take a look at all the players who’ve already earned Masters Invitations.
