The Masters 2026 leaderboard: Final golf scores from Augusta National and tee times for opening major of the year

Final leaderboard from The Masters, the opening major of the year, held at Augusta National in Augusta, Georgia.

Rory McIlroy was defending champion after last year's play-off victory over Justin Rose, seeing him become the sixth player in history - and first since Tiger Woods - to complete the career Grand Slam.

World No 1 Scottie Scheffler was the pre-tournament favourite to win the tournament for a third time, despite entering the week without a top 10 in his last three PGA Tour starts, only for McIlroy to make history with a successful title defence.

McIlroy posted a one-under 71 to finish a shot ahead of Scottie Scheffler, with Tyrrell Hatton a further stroke back in tied-third alongside Justin Rose, Cameron Young and Russell Henley.

Collin Morikawa shared seventh place with Sam Burns, while Max Homa and Xander Schauffele rounded off the top 10. Patrick Reed faded to five under with a final-round 73, while Shane Lowry slipped out contention after an eight-over 80.

There were 91 players in the field for this week's major, the first of four in as many months in men's golf. The Masters is followed by the PGA Championship (May 14-17), US Open (June 18-21) and The Open (July 16-19).

The PGA Tour heads to South Carolina for the RBC Heritage at Hilton Head Island, the latest Signature Event, where Justin Thomas returns as defending champion. Early coverage begins on Thursday from 12.30pm on Your Site Golf, ahead of full coverage from 7pm

The next men's major is the PGA Championship from May 14-17, held at Aronimink Golf Club in Pennsylvania, also live on Your Site. or .
