These 21 golfers will make their first Masters start in 2025 at Augusta National
Of the 96 golfers set to tee it up in the 2025 Masters, almost a quarter of them are making their first start at Augusta National Golf Club.
Included in the newcomers are five amateurs, PGA Tour winners and others. Three first timers have won the Masters: Horton Smith in 1934, Gene Sarazen in 1935 and Fuzzy Zoeller in 1979. Last year, Ludvig Aberg finished solo second in his debut. In 2014, Jordan Spieth tied for second in his first start before winning the Masters at 21 years old the following year.
For these golfers, they'll hope to get their Masters careers off to a good start this week.
Meet the 21 golfers who are making their first start at Augusta National in the 2025 Masters.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Has Strong Words For Chet Holmgren During NBA Finals
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Has Strong Words For Chet Holmgren During NBA Finals originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Game 2 of the NBA Finals featured a much-needed bounce-back performance for the Oklahoma City Thunder after a stunning defeat in Game 1. The Thunder dominated the Indiana Pacers, comfortably winning a commanding 123-107 outing on Sunday. Advertisement Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had a big part in the win. The 2024-25 MVP posted 34 points, eight assists, five rebounds, four steals, and one block. Chet Holmgren was one of the players who struggled in that first loss of the series. The Thunder big man only had six points and six rebounds in Game 1. The second game in Oklahoma City was much better. Holmgren finished with 15 points, six rebounds, and one block. There was a notable difference from the get-go with the young star. May 26, 2025; Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA; Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams (8), forward Chet Holmgren (7) and guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (2) talk to the media after defeating the Minnesota Timberwolves in game four of the western conference finals for the 2025 NBA Playoffs at Target Center. © Jesse Johnson-Imagn Images The impressive part of the improvements from Holmgren was the fact that Gilgeous-Alexander said it was all self-motivated. The Thunder superstar had some strong words for his teammate after the series was evened up at 1-1. Advertisement "The special thing about Chet is nobody said anything to him," Gilgeous-Alexander stated after the Game 2 win. "He's such a competitor, and he gets lost in the competition, and I think he's the best version of himself now." "He's going to go out there and make mistakes just like the rest of us, but his intentions, his intangibles, his skill set, and the things you just can't teach that he does on the basketball court, they'll take over as long as he continues to have that right mindset. Which he does 99.999 percent of the time. And yeah, you don't have to worry about Chet. He's going to be that guy." -Shai Gilgeous-Alexander The Thunder will hope that Gilgeous-Alexander's words resonate with Holmgren moving forward. However, according to the superstar point guard himself, his teammate is capable of figuring everything out all by himself.

Zaltos, Mantzouranis go 1-2 in hammer to help Minnesota take lead in NCAA track championships
EUGENE, Ore. — Kostas Zaltos won the NCAA hammer throw and fellow Greek thrower Angelos Mantzouranis was second to help Minnesota take the Day 1 lead at the outdoor track and field championships Wednesday. Zaltos and Mantzouranis are the first teammates to go 1-2 in the NCAA hammer throw since Virginia Tech did it in 2011. Zaltos won with a throw of 256 feet, 2 inches in the fourth round to become the first Minnesota outdoor champion since 2018 and just the third since 1971. Mantzouranis, who finished third as a freshman last year, had a personal-best 252-6.
