For the first time since 2000, Angel Cabrera will not be competing in the Masters Tournament.

Cabrera, the 2009 champion, was listed by Augusta National Golf Club on Monday as a non-competing former champion. Also included was Trevor Immelman, who announced in December that he would join CBS as a television analyst and relinquish his role as a competitor.

A third former champion, Sergio Garcia, announced on social media that he has tested positive for COVID-19 and would miss his first major championship in 21 years.

“We’ll come back stronger and give the green jacket a go next April,” Garcia tweeted.

Garcia will not attend Tuesday’s Champions Dinner, nor will 1979 Masters winner Fuzzy Zoeller. Zoeller confirmed on Sunday that he would miss the event for the first time since being its host in 1980.

“I’m one of those high-risk deals,” Zoeller said. “I had my heart surgery last year and I’m being very, very careful here.”

Tiger Woods will host Tuesday’s supper, which includes a menu of steak and chicken fajitas, along with sushi and sashimi. Woods will serve milkshakes as a dessert.
