Listowel’s Corey Conners secures spot in 2025 Masters

Listowel’s Corey Conners will once again tee it up at Augusta National, earning his spot at the Masters Tournament through his position in the year-end Official World Golf Ranking. Conners is among nine players added to the 2025 field, which now includes 85 competitors set to play from April 10-13, 2025.

The Masters takes the top 50 players in the world rankings at the end of the calendar year, and Conners, currently ranked within that group at 41, secured his spot for the fifth consecutive year.

The 32-year-old has been a consistent performer at Augusta, with highlights including a tie for eighth in 2023 and multiple top-10 finishes since his debut in 2019.
