The 2026 Masters is in the books, with Rory McIlroy making history by becoming just the fourth golfer in history to win the event in back-to-back years.

Many of the sport's biggest names were near the top of the leaderboard as well, with Scottie Scheffler finishing second and Justin Rose finishing tied for third, just short of the jacket like he always seems to be. However, there were some bigger names that failed to make an impact. At the same time, there were also some unexpectedly solid finishes from some of the game's best.

While golfers like Patrick Reed seemingly fell apart after a great start to the weekend, no one expected him to finish as high as he did. On the contrary, someone like Bryson DeChambeau was expected to be a green jacket contender and wound up missing the cut altogether.

With this year's first major of the golf season concluded, we look back at some of the winners and losers from the 90th Masters Tournament.

Rory McIlroy. How can you not put this man on here? After failing to win the Masters for years, being ever so close to a career Grand Slam, with only Augusta standing in the way, McIlroy goes ahead and wins the event in back-to-back years, becoming just the fourth golfer in history to do so.
