5 Texas Open golfers who need a win to qualify for Masters 2026

If you're a golf fan, you have it circled on your calendar every year. The Masters is just a week away, and while the field is mostly set, there's some business to take care of for a few players at the Texas Open this week.

There are many ways to qualify for The Masters: If you win it, if you're a PGA, British Open or U.S. Open champion, amateur champ and so many more.

And while the top 50 in the world rankings after the Houston Open locked in a bunch of names, there's still an opening: If a player hasn't qualified already, a win in San Antonio clinches a spot.

So here are some notable names who could qualify with a victory:

Billy Horschel​

Let's see if he can get a win after an injury-filled past year.

Will Zalatoris​

Tom Kim​

The man who was T2 at the British Open needs a victory!
