The final opportunity to earn a last-minute invite came at the Valero Texas Open, although winner Corey Conners had qualified for The Masters; watch the opening major of the year live from April 6-9 exclusively live on Sky Sports Golf
Monday 3 April 2023 10:07, UK
The field is now officially set for the opening major of the year, but who has already qualified for The Masters and who is yet to secure their invite to Augusta National?
There are 88 players - as of April 3 - scheduled to tee it up in Georgia from April 6-9, exclusively live on Sky Sports, where world No 1 Scottie Scheffler returns as defending champion and Rory McIlroy has another opportunity to complete the career Grand Slam.
The final chance to qualify came for the winner at the Valero Texas Open, providing they were not already exempt, but Corey Conners was already in The Masters field before claiming his one-shot victory in San Antonio.
Conners' win means there are no last-minute additions to the Augusta field, with Masters runner-up Rickie Fowler, recent PGA Tour winner Matt Wallace and former Ryder Cup captain Padraig Harrington among those unable to find the victory required to qualify.
Aaron Wise was in the initial field but announced the week before the tournament he was withdrawing in order to focus on his mental health, while 18 of this week's line-up are members of the LIV Golf circuit.
The top 50 in the world at the end of the previous calendar year earn an invite, as do those inside the top 50 during the week before the tournament takes place, while previous winners hold a lifetime exemption and any other major winners from the last five years are also included in the field.
The top 12 and ties from last year's Masters are allowed to return, as are the top four and ties from the other three majors in 2022, with every winner at a full-field PGA Tour event - the ones not played the same week as a major or one of the World Golf Championship events - over the past 12 months securing a spot.
The last three winners of The Players and all qualifiers for last season's Tour Championship earn their invite, plus the champions of five of the world's biggest amateur titles, while The Masters committee can invite a player who has not qualified.
