Who's playing in the 2025 Masters? There are now 94 players on the invite list
It's the first men's major of the year. And it's almost here.
It's a somewhat exclusive field to get into, as many years there are about 90 golfers on the tee sheet at Augusta National Golf Club. That compares to most tournaments with 132 golfers with some having as many 156, like the U.S. Open.
With the countdown officially on, there are now 94 golfers on the invite list who can look forward to that drive down Magnolia Lane in 2025, according to the Masters official website.
The list for the Masters includes five amateurs who must maintain that amateur status if they would like to play in April: Josele Ballester, Evan Beck, Justin Hastings, Noah Kent and Hiroshi Tai.

LIV Golf's Marc Leishman returns to majors, gets in the mix at U.S. Open
Marc Leishman's bunker shot splashed out of the sand, took four quick bounces and rolled straight into the hole for birdie on the long, par-3 eighth hole at Oakmont. Suddenly, a name that was once no stranger to leaderboards at majors was up there once again. Not bad for a player who had every reason to wonder if he'd ever get another chance to play in one, let alone contend. The 41-year-old Australian, whose departure to LIV Golf three years ago generated few headlines but changed his life completely, shot 2-under 68 at the U.S. Open on Saturday. He made five birdies over his first 12 holes to briefly get on the leaderboard before leaving the course six shots off the lead. "I've been playing some of the best golf of my career this year," said Leishman, who is coming off his first LIV win, at Doral in April, then earned one of four spots at a U.S. Open qualifier in Maryland this month. "The schedule sort of lends itself to be able to work on your game between tournaments, and I was really able to prepare for this tournament." This is Leishman's first major since the 2022 British Open. He is already exempt for this year's British Open based on a third-place finish at the Australian Open in December. His move to LIV, where tournaments do not qualify for points in the world ranking that help decide large chunks of the field in major events, left the six-time winner on the PGA Tour in limbo when it came to ever playing in golf's biggest events again. "You wonder, of course, if you're ever going to get in," Leishman said. "But there was certainly no regret. My life is as good as I've ever been right now." The $24.8 million Leishman has won since heading to LIV, to say nothing of the reduced schedule and the 54-hole tournaments, help explain that. What went missing were the all-but-automatic spots in golf's biggest tournaments that go to the PGA Tour's top performers. Leishman played in 39 of 41 majors between 2012-22. For a time, he had a knack for getting in the mix. His three top-10s at the British Open in the 2010s included a three-way tie for the lead after 72 holes in 2015, before losing in a playoff eventually captured by Zach Johnson. The Aussie played in the second-to-last group on Sunday at the 2013 Masters (with fellow Aussie and eventual winner Adam Scott). "I like tough courses," Leishman said. "I like courses that separate the field, when it really punishes bad shots and rewards good shots." He had his share of both on Saturday. Good: the bunker shot on 8, and a 300-yard fairway wood on the par-5 12th that set up birdie and got him to 2-over par. Bad: Three straight bogeys on 14-16, though he came back with a birdie on the drivable par-4 17th and par on No. 18. Leishman left the course tied for 15th, six shots out of first, with the leaders still early in their rounds Saturday. He's well aware that a top-four finish here would add the Masters to his 2026 schedule. Either way, he is at peace with the choices he made, and where that left him — which in this case is with a late starting time in the final round of a major again. "I really enjoyed sitting down with my kids and my mates watching the Masters and the PGA," Leishman said of the year's first two majors. "I'd be more happy if people were sitting down watching me."

Oakmont Claims Next Victim as U.S. Open Favorite Withdraws
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The 2025 U.S. Open has wreaked havoc all week, with more players finishing 20-over par or worse than in red figures. That is because Oakmont Country Club has been a beast, and has even left some literally feeling the pain. Corey Conners came into the 125th U.S. Open ranked among the Top 30 players in the field at Oakmont Country Club. Instead of being among those who get a cut of the $21.5 million purse, he heads home early. The Canadian golfer withdrew from a tournament for the first time in his PGA Tour career. BREAKING: Corey Conners has withdrawn from the U.S. Open due to the wrist injury — Adam Stanley (@adam_stanley) June 15, 2025 He pulled out of the competition due to a wrist injury during the first round when he hit a television cable at Oakmont Country Club, per Sports Net reporter Adam Stanley. Conners shot 72-74 in the first two rounds and got off to a hot start on Saturday. He was 3-under through five holes, but once he got to the 11th, disaster happened. OAKMONT, PENNSYLVANIA - JUNE 14: Corey Conners of Canada get treatment on the 12th tee during the third round of the 125th U.S. OPEN at Oakmont Country Club on June 14, 2025 in Oakmont, Pennsylvania.... OAKMONT, PENNSYLVANIA - JUNE 14: Corey Conners of Canada get treatment on the 12th tee during the third round of the 125th U.S. OPEN at Oakmont Country Club on June 14, 2025 in Oakmont, Pennsylvania. More Photo byStanley first reported that Conners hurt his wrist on his approach shot on 11, where he had a plugged lie. He hacked it out, but came up holding his wrist. At this point, Conners radioed to get a medical person out on the course so that they could check him out. The 33-year-old received treatment from Dr. Stuart Love, the Canadian sports chiropractor, on the 12th tee because they had to keep up the pace. Conners pushed through, but came home 5-over on the back nine. He finished the third round at 8-over heading into the last day of play. Sunday morning, Conners showed up and began his warm-up, but quickly realized playing golf was not happening. "I'm told Corey hit six pitch shots this morning and hurt on every one. Done and out," Stanley wrote in a tweet update after he announced Conners would withdraw. I'm told Corey hit six pitch shots this morning and hurt on every one. Done and out. Unfortunate as he was playing so well through Saturday morning before the plugged lie hack. — Adam Stanley (@adam_stanley) June 15, 2025 Conners and Ryan Fox were slated for the 10:20 a.m. ET tee time. Instead, the RBC Canadian Open winner will have to play as a solo for the final 18 holes at Oakmont. The two-time PGA Tour winner has played some strong golf in 2025, with five top-10s in 15 starts. He only missed one cut ahead of this third major, the Sony Open in Hawaii. His best finish came at the Arnold Palmer Invitational when he claimed solo third. Since that finish, Conners went T6, T8, T18 and left The Masters with his fourth top 10 in five starts. Conners capped off the PGA Championship with a T19. Hopefully, the two-time Presidents Cup team member will recover quickly before the fourth and final major, The Open Championship at Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland. Conners clinched his spot at Portrush earlier this year after his incredible performance at Bay Hill. More Golf: Wyndham Clark Loses Temper, Goes Berserk in U.S. Open Locker Room

Rory McIlroy can't stop tossing clubs around Oakmont at the 2025 U.S. Open
Rory McIlroy can't stop tossing clubs around Oakmont at the 2025 U.S. Open Oakmont Country Club has taken no shortage of victims at the 2025 U.S. Open, and being one of the top-ranked players in the world does not grant immunity from the perils of the "toughest test in golf." It's been well-documented that Rory McIlroy had a rather frustrating week at Oakmont, and he has let that frustration boil up on several occasions. It happened again Sunday, but in a hilariously cool way — he executed one of the smoothest club tosses we've ever seen. McIlroy let his wedge fly, but instead of landing on the Oakmont turf, it hit his bag and boomeranged right back to him. Seriously, how did he do this?! Truly impressive stuff from the World No. 2. Now, of course, that probably isn't what McIlroy was hoping we'd be gawking over on Sunday at the U.S. Open. He'd much rather have his performance on the golf course be the story, but 54 holes of carnage and frustration left him 10 over and well out of contention entering the final round. This isn't the first we've seen of McIlroy's anger-driven antics on the course this week, either. First, it was the textbook tomahawk club toss on Friday afternoon. Then, later that day, it was a tee marker's turn to feel his wrath. Needless to say, McIlroy can't wait to leave Oakmont. Don't take our word for it. He said it himself. Asked by the media Saturday what his goals were for the final round, he responded, "Hopefully a round in under four and a half hours and get out of here." And it isn't just the golf course that's in danger of feeling the pain from players this week, apparently, after Wyndham Clark reportedly damaged some lockers inside Oakmont's clubhouse. Deep breaths, guys!
