Masters winners by year: Complete list of champions

Masters week is here. All eyes are on Augusta National, where defending champion Rory McIlroy and World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler headline a star-studded field, both chasing another green jacket.

McIlroy returns to Augusta as champion for the first time in his career, though his lead-up to this year's event has been far from smooth. A back injury forced him to withdraw from the Arnold Palmer Invitational in March, and he followed that by narrowly making the cut at the Players Championship . Despite the turbulent run of form, McIlroy is aiming to become the first back-to-back Masters winner since Tiger Woods in 2001 and 2002.

Scottie Scheffler arrives at Augusta on a personal high, having recently welcomed his second child . He withdrew from the Houston Open in March to be with his wife, and his last competitive outing, the Players Championship, ended in a tie for 22nd. Even so, Scheffler remains a strong favorite to claim his third green jacket.
