The 2025 Masters Tournament, scheduled for April 10-13, is setting the stage for an exciting week at Augusta. Defending champion Scottie Scheffler, fresh off hand surgery, is looking to secure a rare consecutive win while Rory McIlroy chases his elusive career Grand Slam.
Adding to the drama, 12 players from the LIV Golf tour are competing—highlighting ongoing rivalries—with no special exemptions planned by Augusta National, according to recent Reuters reports dated April 9-10. Meanwhile, Angel Cabrera makes a remarkable return to Augusta following a prison sentence, and Denmark’s Nicolai and Rasmus Hojgaard will make history as the first twins to share the field at the Masters.
