The 2021 Masters Tournament field is now set with the final deadline to make the field -- save for the winner of the PGA Tour's Valero Texas Open -- now passed.
The Masters will be played with limited patrons at Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Ga., but it will be back in its traditional slot as the first men's major of the year.
As of March 29, 2021, there are 89 players in the competition.
Among those in the invitation-only field include defending champion Dustin Johnson, Jon Rahm, Phil Mickelson, Jordan Spieth, Jason Day, Rory McIlroy, Hideki Matsuyama and Justin Thomas. The full world top 50 at the end of 2020 and the week before the 2021 Masters qualify.
The traditional invitation criteria have been applied, but some are not pertinent given the global golf schedule in 2020.

Top 50 players in 2021 Masters field
The top 50 in the Official World Golf Ranking are invited twice to the Masters, with the 2020 year-end top 50 invited and any player inside the top 50 the week prior to the Masters getting an invitation. Needless to say, all of the top 50 in the world will play barring injury, which likely knocks out Brooks Koepka.
