Canada will be represented by three players at the Masters this week, with Corey Conners, Nick Taylor and former champion Mike Weir all set to tee it up at Augusta National.
Conners, from Listowel, Ont., is grouped with England’s Harry Hall and American Michael Brennan. They are set to begin play at 11:44 am CST on Thursday and 8:19 am on Friday. Conners has twice finished tied for sixth at Augusta National (2020, 2022), the best result among the Canadians in the field.
Taylor, of Abbotsford, B.C., will play alongside Americans Keegan Bradley and Ryan Gerard in the opening two rounds. Their group is scheduled to tee off at 8:31 am on Thursday and 11:44 am on Friday. Taylor’s best result at the Masters is a tie for 29th, recorded in 2020.
Weir, the 2003 Masters champion from Brights Grove, Ont., will play with American Wyndham Clark and Argentina’s amateur Mateo Pulcini. Their tee times are 10:27 am on Thursday and 7:02 am on Friday. Weir’s victory in 2003 remains the best result by a Canadian at the Masters.
