This year’s contingent of LIV Golfers in The Masters field includes two of the tournament favorites and a number of past Green Jacket winners.
The LIV Golf League has OWGR points now and a new route for the Asian Tour’s Hong Kong Open champion has helped, but the numbers haven’t changed much since last year when 12 players from the team tour made their way down Magnolia Lane.
Fast forward 12 months and only 10 LIV Golfers have a Masters tee time on this occasion.
So, which LIV Golfers will be vying for the Green Jacket in 2026? And how did they qualify? Let’s take a look…

How he qualified: US Open champion 2024, top-12 in 2025 Masters, top-4 in 2025 PGA Championship, OWGR top-50 end of 2025
Bryson DeChambeau is among the two or three tournament favorites for the Green Jacket this year after winning the LIV Golf League’s Singapore and South Africa events in March.
The two-time US Open winner has a very good recent Masters record with T6 and T5 finishes over the last two years, having played alongside Rory McIlroy in the final group 12 months ago.

How he qualified: Masters champion 2017
Garcia’s one and only Major victory came here in 2017, when he pipped Justin Rose in a playoff on what was an epic final day.
The Spaniard is still playing to a high level in the LIV Golf League but his Masters record since winning has been very poor, with six missed cuts in seven starts.

How he qualified: Top-4 in 2025 US Open, OWGR top-50 end of 2025
The Englishman made it into field thanks to his best ever Major finish at the US Open last year, where a Masters invite would have been a worthwhile consolation after a disappointing bogey-bogey finish.
He hasn’t fared too well at Augusta through the years, although his best two results – T9th and T14th – have arrived in his past two starts.
