About this chart

Jack Nicklaus holds the Masters record with 6 green jackets, won in 1963, 1965, 1966, 1972, 1975 and 1986. Tiger Woods has 5, the last in 2019, and Arnold Palmer has 4 green jackets of his own. Five golfers have 3 wins each: Jimmy Demaret, Sam Snead, Gary Player, Nick Faldo and Phil Mickelson.

Rory McIlroy won in 2025 and again in 2026, repeating as champion. Scottie Scheffler has 2 wins, in 2022 and 2024. No Masters was played in 1943, 1944 and 1945 because of World War II, so those years repeat the prior totals. The chart shows every golfer with 3 or more wins plus selected two-time winners, and leaves out some others with 2.
