* -- The top 50 players from the year-end rankings earn invitations to the following year's Masters. Van Rooyen missed the 2021 Masters by one place with his final 2020 ranking of 51. Masters invitations also go to players ranked in the top 50 the week before the current year's Masters -- the March 28 rankings in 2021. Van Rooyen missed that by 12 spots, because he was No 62 last week.
