LIV Golf captain Joaquin Niemann of Chile and PGA Tour golfer Nicolai Hojgaard of Denmark each accepted an invitation to play in the Masters, Augusta National Golf Club chairman Fred Ridley announced Wednesday.

The field rests at 87 golfers for the tournament on April 10-13 in Augusta, Ga.

“In support of Augusta National’s efforts to develop interest in golf globally, deserving international players not otherwise qualified have been invited throughout the tournament’s history,” Ridley said. “The tradition continues as we welcome Nicolai and Joaquin back to the Masters, as both players have showcased their talent while competing around the world. We look forward to their arrival this April.”

Niemann, 26, is no stranger to playing in the Masters.

While he received an invitation for the second straight year, the 71st-ranked Niemann has played in each of the last five tournaments — making the cut in each of the last four.

Hojgaard, 23, fared well in his first run in the Masters last season. He remained in contention after the first three rounds before finishing in a tie for 16th place.

Ranked 60th in the world, Hojgaard will join his twin brother, Rasmus, in competing in the Masters. It will mark the first time in tournament history that twins will compete in the same event.
