Has Any Golfer Won Three Masters In A Row?

Golf fans are searching today to see if any player has ever won three consecutive Masters Tournaments. The question is trending as Scottie Scheffler, the 2024 and 2025 champion, enters the final round of the 2026 Masters with a commanding lead. A victory would make him the first to achieve the historic three-peat at Augusta National.

No golfer has ever won three straight Masters since the tournament began in 1934. Jack Nicklaus (1965-1966) and Tiger Woods (2001-2002) each won back-to-back titles but fell short of a third. Scheffler, the current world No. 1, has dominated the sport since his first Masters win two years ago.

The Texas native shot a 5-under 67 on Saturday to take a four-stroke lead into Sunday's final round. A win would cement his place among golf's all-time greats. Augusta National's challenging course and pressure-packed final rounds have prevented consecutive winners from extending their streaks.

Fans and analysts are buzzing about the possibility on social media. Scheffler's consistent play and calm demeanor have drawn comparisons to Woods in his prime. The 29-year-old has six PGA Tour wins since the start of 2025, including last month's Players Championship.

Sunday's final round begins at 2:30 PM ET with Scheffler paired with rising star Tom Kim. CBS will broadcast the action live from Augusta, Georgia. A victory would give Scheffler his fifth major championship and further solidify his current era of dominance in men's golf.
