Masters Tournament eligibility criteria to complete the qualification process

Only two eligibility criteria for The Masters Tournament remain open as of now. In fact, they will remain open until almost a week before the event.

The first is "individual winners of PGA Tour events that award a full-point FedEx Cup allocation, from previous Masters to current Masters." There are still 14 PGA Tour events that qualify, and if a player not otherwise exempt wins them, he will earn the right to play at Augusta National in April.

The other qualifying criteria is the "50 leaders on the Official World Golf Ranking as published the week before the current Masters." Similarly, if any player not otherwise exempt is included in this group, he will play in The Masters Tournament in 2025.
