The Masters isnt just another major its where legacies are made and long waits finally come to an end. Just last year, Rory McIlroy broke through for his first green jacket and this week, a new group arrives at Augusta chasing that same moment. LIV Golf will once again be well represented at Augusta, with 10 players in the field. Led by Bryson DeChambeau and Jon Rahm, LIV Golf has a real chance to make history this weekend. Since the leagues creation, no player has won the Masters after leaving the PGA Tour for LIV Golf. Rahm might be the headliner coming into the week, and DeChambeau is on a bit of a heater. But there are some other LIV golfers to look out for entering the week. So with that in mind, heres a look at the LIV players teeing up at Augusta this week. Bryson DeChambeau DeChambeau is heading into this week with plenty of momentum after having won back-to-back LIV events and finished in the top three in three of his last five starts. Augusta has suited him well, with consecutive top-six finishes and a couple of first-round leads. Sergio Garcia Garcia won the 2017 Masters, which made him the third Spaniard to claim a green jacket at Augusta. Hes also made the cut in all 15 of his appearances and has been able to put together four top-10 finishes along the way. Garcia is one of the most seasoned international players heading into this week. Tyrrell Hatton Hatton has made seven cuts in nine Masters starts, highlighted by a career-best T9 in 2024. Hes also played 32 rounds at Augusta, where he posted eight under-par rounds with a low of 68. This season, hes enjoying his best LIV Golf year yet, playing well off the tee and on par-3s. Dustin Johnson Johnson won the 2020 Masters by five strokes at 20-under, setting a tournament scoring record. Hes made 11 cuts in 15 starts at Augusta, notching five top-10s and 23 under-par rounds with a low of 65. This season, hes been one of the top performers on LIV Golf in Strokes Gained Putting. Tom McKibbin McKibbin is making his Master's debut this year and is one of just two players from Northern Ireland in the field, alongside McIlroy. Hes been steady on LIV Golf, with four top-25 finishes in five events and several rounds in the mid-60s. Carlos Ortiz Ortiz returns to the Masters for the first time since his 2021 debut, where he missed the cut but managed a round under par with a 71. Hes off to a strong start this season on LIV Golf, ranking second in Strokes Gained Approach. In 2020, Ortiz made history by winning the Houston Open, becoming the first Mexican winner on the PGA Tour in 42 years. Jon Rahm Rahm won the 2023 Masters, becoming the fourth Spaniard to claim a green jacket and the first European to win both the Masters and the U.S. Open. Hes kept that form going this season, picking up three LIV Golf wins and several other strong finishes. With his consistency, Rahm heads into Augusta as one of the top contenders again. Charl Schwartzel Schwartzel won the 2011 Masters, becoming the third South African to claim a green jacket and 50 years after Gary Player did so. In 16 Masters starts, hes made 11 cuts, earned three top-10 finishes, and posted a low round of 66. That kind of experience shows he can still handle Augusta and be a contender if hes in form this week. Cameron Smith Smith has been consistent at the Masters, finishing in the top 10 in five of his last eight appearances, including top-five finishes in 2018, 2020 and 2022. He is the only player in Masters history to shoot all four rounds in the 60s in a single tournament. Smith also shares the record for the lowest score by an international player and by a non-winner. Bubba Watson Watson knows Augusta inside and out, having won the Masters in 2012 and 2014. Hes always had a feel for the course, even leading in Strokes Gained Putting at last years Masters. This season on LIV Golf has been tough on Watson as he heads into the week without a top-25 finish. LIV Golf hasnt always had the results it hoped for at the Masters, but this years group brings plenty of talent and experience. Most of them should make the cut, and a few could even stick around near the top of the leaderboard. With past champions like Garcia, Schwartzel, Johnson, Watson, and Rahm, theres some serious experience in the field. Those players know Augusta and can handle the pressure when it counts. If they all play well this week, we could see some big moves as the tournament goes on. By Sunday, one of them might even pull off something historic.
