Every fairway found, every pin chased, every clutch putt… it’s all for you to experience with Masters betting at BetMGM.
The Masters is a 72-hole stroke play event contested over four days at one of the most prestigious courses in world golf: Augusta National.
The field is one of the smallest in major championship golf, with approximately 90 players from around the world competing for the green jacket and all the acclaim that comes with it.
Competitors play in groups of two or three for the first two rounds with the field then cut to the top 50 and ties, plus any players within 10 shots of the lead. The final 36 holes are played over the last two days.
The Masters follows a traditional stroke-play format, in which the player with the lowest total score wins. If there’s a tie, a sudden-death playoff begins at the 18th hole.
The 2026 Masters will be held at the historic Augusta National Golf Club in Georgia from Thursday 9th April to Sunday 12th April.
Famously a former plant nursery, each hole of this breathtaking course is named after a certain tree or shrub, such as Tea Olive (hole one), Flowering Crab Apple (hole four) and White Dogwood (hole 11).
Rory McIlroy is the most recent winner, completing a long-awaited career grand slam with a play-off victory over Justin Rose at last year’s Masters to secure his first major title in 11 years.
The Northern Irishman is among the favourites to go back-to-back but will face stiff competition from world number one Scottie Scheffler, who has made Augusta a home away from home in recent years with victories in 2022 and 2024 as well as top 10 finishes in 2023 and 2025.
There’s still a long way to go to match the tournament’s greats, though. Jack Nicklaus leads the way with a record six Masters titles, followed by Tiger Woods on five and Arnold Palmer on four.
Here are the Masters winners over the past 10 years:
A field of just under 100 players will compete in the first major golf tournament of 2026 – many of them with years of experience on this sort of stage.
