- Quick Notes: One of the more consistent golfers in the world, the 34-year-old from South Africa, comes with a unique story. That story has led him here to this event each of the last two years and making the cut in each, and he’ll look to improve upon his tie for 38th back in 2020 here this year.

- Quick Notes: There’s no question that Wolff is still trying to find his way out here. He’s only had one top-10 on the season and plenty of other terrible starts. This could be a tough week to try and find his game at one of the most challenging most tactical tracks around.

- DFS Salary for the Millionaire Maker on DraftKings: $8,000
- Quick Notes: One of the more colorful figures in professional golf, as Hatton is always caught saying something off the cuff. He’s had a good season this year, including a second-place finish at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. His best finish at the Masters was an 18th-place finish last year.
Mackenzie Hughes

- Masters Form:
  - 2018: MC
  - 2017: 4
- Bet for the Week: Coming Soon
- DFS Salary for the Millionaire Maker on DraftKings: $6,600
- Quick Notes: It feels like yesterday that Pieters posted the first-round lead at the 2017 Masters. He did not hold that lead, but he did come in fourth place and looked to be the next great thing in golf. His play this season has been good with a win at the Abu Dhabi, but he hasn’t been back to Augusta since 2018.
Russell Henley

- DFS Salary for the Millionaire Maker on DraftKings: $7,800
- Quick Notes: A good stretch of golf over the last year that just hasn’t produced a win has at least got him back to Augusta for the first time since 2018. He hasn’t missed the cut in any of his last four tries and hasn’t finished worse than 31st.
