Other notables in the field include Jordan Spieth, Brooks Koepka, Phil Mickelson, Jason Day, Adam Scott and Dustin Johnson among others.

Tee Times

Finau will begin play on Thursday teeing off the 1st tee at 6:35 a.m. before teeing off the 10th tee at 11:15 a.m. on Friday.

The buildup to The Masters has been disrupted for Finau this year as he tested positive for COVID-19 and took two weeks off recovering from the virus. Fortunately, his battle with the virus ended and he was able to participate in the Zozo Championship where he finished in a tie for 11th. However, during the third round, Finau sat atop the leaderboard and looked optimistic to pick up his second career PGA Tour victory.

Finau’s only win on the Tour came in 2016 when he won the Puerto Rico Open.
