What began 101 days earlier has sadly come to an end. Is it just us, or did the 2024 men’s major season fly by, with Scottie Scheffler, Bryson DeChambeau and Xander Schauffele twice walking off with the hardware. There were endless storylines in their wake (did the world’s No. 1 player really get arrested on Friday of the PGA Championship?)

Now golf fans are in for the long wait—262 days to be precise—until the first round of the 2025 Masters.

Mind you, there is lots of golf to come between now and then—the Olympics, FedEx Cup Playoffs, Presidents Cup, not to mention one last women’s major (at St. Andrews to boot!) and Solheim Cup.

In an attempt to hold you over until the golf world returns to Augusta National once more next April, we compiled this early look at everybody who has already earned a spot in the field for next year’s Masters. We write this post with a caveat: We’re working off the presumption that the qualifying criteria for the 2025 event will mirror what was used in 2024.

To date, the number who have qualified, including past champions unlikely to play next year, is 68, the latest additions coming on Sunday at the British Open. Here's the list, in alphabetical order.
