AUGUSTA, Ga. - Scottie Scheffler came to Augusta National looking to join Jack Nicklaus as the only players to win three Masters in a four-year span. He had to settle for a fourth-place finish. Scheffler, the No. 1 player in the world and the pre-tournament favorite, shot a 3-under 69 on Sunday to finish at 8-under 280 in a week where he could never recapture the mojo that led to titles in 2022 and 2024 at Augusta National. But he walked away encouraged by his play.

AUGUSTA, Ga. - The Masters is the only major Rory McIlroy hasn’t won. A green jacket is all he needs to complete his career Grand Slam. What makes this year feel different is McIlroy has never looked more equipped to claim a Masters green jacket that once looked inevitable. For the first time in his career, he has started the season with two wins before getting to Augusta National, beating two strong fields at Pebble Beach and The Players Championship.

Maybe even a fist bump. It’s a spot just for those 16 and under near the driving range. At the Masters, kids line the practice area to get a look at their idols, and maybe an autograph. The players are very obliging, often coming over to greet their young fans and talk to them.

It’s also hard to remember a time when he didn’t play in the Masters. Patrons have always loved him, and he’s always loved Augusta. “It’s paradise,” he said. So much so that the Masters seems like a homecoming each year for the Seattle native. “I love coming here. Everyone I bring here loves it,” he said.
