The 2014 Masters Tournament arrives with live television and online coverage from Augusta, Georgia this Thursday, April 10, 2014. Tiger Woods, a four time winner at Augusta, and the top-ranked golfer in the world will unfortunately be absent from this year’s tournament due to a back injury he previously had surgery for. It will be the first time he has missed the tournament in 20 years, leaving the field of competition wide open for a surprise winner in 2014.
Even without Woods, the Masters won’t be without its share of star power. Golf legends including Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, and Gary Player are set to tee off on Thursday. PGA Tour stars expected to compete for the green jacket include the likes of Phil Mickelson, who will be trying to win his fourth green jacket, former world number 1 player Rory McIlroy, who will be trying to win his first Masters, Bubba Watson, who won the tournament in 2012, and defending champion Adam Scott — who will be trying to become the first player since Tiger Woods to win consecutive Masters titles.
