The margin for a Masters took figure Monday after a final central week of golf tournaments around a world. Among a criteria for an invitation is to be among a tip 50 in a universe ranking during a finish of a season.

Els, a three-time vital champion who has suffered copiousness of heartaches during Augusta National, fell to No. 56 in a final ranking. Els has been authorised for a Masters each year given his entrance in 1994. Goosen, a two-time U.S. Open champion, is during No. 53.
