Including the addition of 11 players who finish
this year in the top 50 in the world rankings, only 77 players
are on track to tee off in April in Augusta, Ga. That's 10 fewer
than the 2023 edition, won by Spain's Jon Rahm.
The Masters already has the smallest field among the four
majors. The last time more than 100 players competed for the
green jacket was in 1966 with 103.
The 11 expected to earn spots through the top 50 are: Ryan Fox,
Min Woo Lee, Denny McCarthy, Will Zalatoris, Justin Rose, Harris
English, Eric Cole, J.T. Poston, Adrian Meronk, Adam Hadwin and
Nicolai Hojgaard.
Four players secured invitations by winning PGA Tour events this
fall: Luke List, Erik Van Rooyen, Camilo Villegas and Ludvig
Aberg.
