This year's Masters featured 89 players, but next year's edition could feature signifiantly more as more players get added before April.

AUGUSTA, Ga. — The 85 players expected to compete in the 89th Masters, to be played April 10-13. Players listed only in the first category for which they are eligible (a-amateur).

Subtlety is something Augusta National does well, so you won’t be surprised with the manner it recently messaged its holiday greetings via social media. Yes, Christmas is here, which is also about the time the club hands out early invitations to the next year’s Masters.
