Last year at the Masters, the 15-time major champion added another entry next to his name in the history books simply by making the cut. Woods extended his consecutive made cuts streak at Augusta National to 24, surpassing the record he previously shared with Fred Couples and Gary Player.

The honorary starters for the 2025 Masters are Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player and Tom Watson. Nicklaus has played that role since 2010. He was joined by Player in 2012 and then by Watson in 2022. While other prestigious golf tournaments change venue every year, the Masters is always held at Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Georgia.

Tiger Woods will be missing this tournament for the fifth time in his career after suffering an abrupt Achilles injury in March. The five-time Masters champion last won the tournament in 2019, but hasn't finished higher than 38th place since then.
