Dubuisson books Masters ticket
Victor Dubuisson will play at Augusta National for the first time in his career next year after securing a place at the Masters.
The 23-year-old has got the invite on the back of his excellent of season form that has seen him move up to number 32 in the final golf world rankings for the year.
That naturally earned him a place along with 13 other non-qualified players to the first major of the 2014 season. It will be his first appearance at a major as a professional.
The Frenchman won his maiden European Tour title at the Turkish Airlines Open in November and then finished third behind Henrik Stenson at the season-ending DP World Tour Championship in Dubai.
Hideki Matsuyama, Thomas Bjorn, Jamie Donaldson, Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano, Miguel Angel Jimenez, Francesco Molinari, Rickie Fowler, Matteo Manassero, David Lynn, Thongchai Jaidee, Peter Hanson, Joost Luiten and Branden Grace have also booked tickets to Georgia.
That takes the Masters field to 90, but there are still spots up for grabs for non-qualifiers who win a PGA Tour event or finish in the top 50 a week before the major.
