The course’s famous azaleas and roaring fans will not be present, but the competition looks stiffer than ever with Bryson Dechambeau, Dustin Johnson and John Rahm among the stars touted to claim the Green Jacket on Sunday.
Tiger Woods will of course also be in attendance, but the 2019 champion faces an uphill struggle to win a sixth green jacket.
With the UK under varying levels of coronavirus restrictions, the sporting spectacle will provide welcome relief to housebound sports fans.
When is the Masters 2020?
Typically the major tournament takes place in April, but due to the pandemic the tournament was delayed by several months.
This year the tournament will run from November 12 to November 15.
The first of this year’s competitors will tee off at 12.30pm UK time on Thursday.
Where can I watch the Masters in the UK?
Sky Sports have broadcasting rights for the tournament with Sky Sports Golf and Main Event hosting the bulk of the action.
Sky Sports subscribers can also watch the action unfold via the Sky Go app.
Those without a Sky Sports subscription can tune in via NOW TV. A one-off monthly pass for the streaming service costs £33.99. Alternatively fans might just want to tune into the final day of action in which case a day pass for £9.99 can be purchased.
Sky will be providing exclusive coverage of the event, meaning there will be none of the usual live coverage from the BBC. The national broadcaster will however be providing daily highlights packages.
Pairings to watch
Open champion Shane Lowry will partner defending champion Tiger Woods in the first two rounds of the 84th Masters.
Woods will tee off at 07.55 local time (12.55GMT) on Thursday alongside Lowry and US Amateur champion Andy Ogletree, with the trio starting from the 10th tee due to the lack of daylight.
After an 11-year wait, Woods won his 15th major championship and fifth Masters title at Augusta National in April last year, the 44-year-old finishing a shot ahead of Dustin Johnson, Brooks Koepka and Xander Schauffele.
