The 2026 Masters Tournament is underway at Augusta National Golf Club in the United States, with South African golfers and global stars competing from 9 to 12 April. The tournament, one of golf’s four major championships, is drawing strong local interest in Gauteng due to the presence of South African players and prime-time broadcast access. Defending champion Rory McIlroy headlines the field, while players such as Charl Schwartzel, Aldrich Potgieter and Casey Jarvis represent South Africa on one of the sport’s biggest stages.
