Aged 45, it's unlikely that Rose will get too many more opportunities to stake his claim for the title, an added pressure that's of no concern to his rivals this week.

Scottie Scheffler hasn't been at his peerless best this year and he's coming off an extended break due to the birth of his second child, but he's still the hot favourite at Augusta. Victory would make him the fourth player, after Tiger Woods (2001, 2002, 2005), Jack Nicklaus (1963, 1965, 1966) and Arnold Palmer (1960, 1962, 1964), to earn three Green Jackets in five years.

2023 champion Jon Rahm and Bryson DeChambeau, who collapsed down the stretch last year, are bringing strong form and words into The Masters, while Ludvig Aberg, Cameron Young and Tommy Fleetwood are in good company. 38 winners of The Masters had never won a Major previously. Slightly under the radar, Robert MacIntyre is a sleeper pick well worth keeping an eye out for.

McIlroy tees off at 3.31pm BST, alongside Young and amateur Mason Howell (US*), Rose at 6.20pm BST in the company of Jordan Spieth and Brooks Koepka, and Scheffler at 6.44pm BST with MacIntyre and Gary Woodland.
