2024 Masters first round live updates: Rain delays start as Jon Rahm, Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy begin quest for green jacket

The 88th Masters is here, where Jon Rahm is trying to go back-to-back, Tiger Woods is trying to get back and Rory McIlroy is trying to win his first green jacket — and first major victory of any kind in a decade.

Scottie Scheffler, the 2022 Masters champion, is the favorite to win a second green jacket from a field that includes a host of LIV golfers.

Rain has delayed the start of Round 1 to 10:30 a.m., but so far the heavy precipitation and wind forecasted has not materialized. The good news for the Masters is the weather is expected to remain clear through the weekend.
