All aboard for the first big championship of the season, as Padraig Harrington attempts to secure a third successive Major victory.
The Irishman tees-up at Augusta National on Thursday hoping to make it a treble following his victories at Birkdale and Oakland Hills last summer.
In the absence of the injured Tiger Woods, Harrington became king of the Majors and has actually won three of the last six to be contested.
But the Tiger is back on the prowl and in his second stroke-play event since returning from surgery and injury, the 33-year-old American won the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill.
As for Harrington, the 37-year-old has been slightly out of sorts during the opening few months of 2009, although he did produce his best US finish of the year at Bay Hill recently when he tied for 11th - six shots behind Tiger.
And if he could win either the Masters or US Open would become the first European to hold three Major titles at the same time.
So who's in the frame alongside Tiger and Padraig?
Paul Casey: Tied-for-sixth on his Augusta debut in 2004 since when he's also posted a brace of top-12 finishes in the tournament. Is a consistent Major performer and, at 31 years of age, should be ready to step up to the big time.
Retief Goosen: A winner in Tampa during March which ended a barren run of three and a half years without a victory. The 40-year-old South African plays well at Augusta where four of his last seven visits have produced top-three finishes.
Zach Johnson: The Masters champion from two years ago has started this season in good shape. Was a winner in Hawaii during January and is currently among the top six in both the FedEx Cup standings and PGA Tour Money List for 2009.
Phil Mickelson: Must be considered Tiger's biggest threat this week. Has twice won at Augusta and has only once finished outside the top-10 in his last 10 starts in the Masters. He is also a two-time winner on Tour this season.
Andres Romero: Finished in a tie-for-eighth on his Masters debut last year. Hits the ball a long way - which is always an advantage at Augusta - and is not scared to perform well in Majors as three top-10s from six previous starts illustrate.
Camilo Villegas: Although he failed to make the cut in either of his two previous Masters' starts, the 27-year-old Colombian is one of the up and coming stars of world golf. Two of his last three Major starts have yielded top-10 finishes.
