Sergio Garcia will be back to defend his crown after last year's memorable play-off victory over Justin Rose, while Rory McIlroy heads to Augusta with another chance to complete a career Grand Slam.

World No 1 Dustin Johnson is back in the field after having to pull out of the 2017 contest last-minute through injury, with four-time Masters champion Tiger Woods scheduled to make a first major appearance since 2015.
