The final standings from the Masters, the first major golf tournament of the year, held at Augusta National Golf Club in Georgia. Rory McIlroy, the defending champion, made history by successfully retaining his title, becoming the first player to do so since Tiger Woods. McIlroy's victory came after a thrilling playoff win over Justin Rose the previous year, making him the sixth player to achieve a career Grand Slam.
World number one Scottie Scheffler was the pre-tournament favorite, but McIlroy's consistent performance earned him a one-shot lead over Scheffler. Tyrrell Hatton, Justin Rose, Cameron Young, and Russell Henley followed closely, tied for third place. The top 10 was rounded out by Collin Morikawa, Sam Burns, Max Homa, and Xander Schauffele.
The Masters, the first of four major golf tournaments in as many months, saw 91 players competing. The PGA Championship, US Open, and The Open are the upcoming majors. The PGA Tour will next head to Hilton Head Island in South Carolina for the RBC Heritage, where Justin Thomas will defend his title.
