When does Masters start? How to watch and what to know about weather-delayed tournament

Masters week has arrived at last.

Jon Rahm will attempt to become the fourth player in tournament history to win back-to-back titles at Augusta National. Rahm is defending a 2023 championship he won by rallying for a four-stroke win against Brooks Koepka and Phil Mickelson.

Scottie Scheffler has already won two tournaments this year and will take the first tee as the World Golf Rankings No. 1 player. He's also had some success at Augusta winning the 2022 Masters.

Tiger Woods is making his 26th appearance at the Masters and is seeking his sixth win in the tournament, a feat that would tie him with Jack Nicklaus for most all time. Meanwhile, Rory McIlroy will attempt to win for the first time at Augusta, the only major that has proven to be elusive for the Northern Ireland golfer.

Here's everything you need to know about the 2024 Masters Tournament.
