The Masters Tournament, also referred to as the U.S. Masters, is one of the four major championships in the sport of men’s professional golf. The other three are the PGA Championship, the U.S. Open, and the Open Championship. The first three major championships are played in the United States, while the last is played in the UK. The PGA Championship and the U.S. Open are played at various locations in the U.S., but the Masters is an invitational golf tournament that is hosted by the Augusta National Golf Club in Georgia.

The Masters golf tournament has been held every year since 1934, except for 1943-45, when many events were paused due to World War II.

Which Golf Pro Has Won the Most Masters Tournaments?

The golf pro who has won the Masters Tournament the most times is Jack Nicklaus, with six wins, which took place in 1963, 1965, 1966, 1972, 1975, and 1986. Nicklaus’s nickname was “the Golden Bear,” and he is considered to be one of the greatest golfers of all time. His win in 1966 made him the first player to win the Masters Tournament two years in a row.

Golf’s modern-day hero, Tiger Woods, is a close second to Nicklaus, with five Masters Tournament wins under his belt. Tiger Woods won his first back in 1997, followed by wins in 2001, 2002, and 2005. After dealing with back issues for years, he made an unbelievable comeback and earned his fifth win in 2019.
