After their previous successes at Augusta, the ex-winners are lifetime invitees.
And that sees the likes of Jose Maria Olazabal, Danny Willett, Charl Schwartzel, Sergio Garcia and Phil Mickelson are all among the early starters.
Could any of them launch a shock bid for another green jacket?
Time for a power Knapp
Jake Knapp and Erik van Rooyen are the first group out with an 8am local time tee-off.
But they might get an extra hour in bed thanks to the delay.
Not that they'll be able to get too much sleep thinking about that drive on the first hole.
Masters statement
A brief but important statement was published by the Augusta National at 5am local time in Georgia.
It said: "We continue to monitor the weather closely.
"Gate openings and tee times have been delayed until further notice.
"The first round will not begin before 9am."
Thunderstorms DELAY round one at Augusta
The start of the 2024 Masters Tournament has been delayed by at least one hour.
Action was set to begin from 1pm BST/8am ET but "heavy rainfall and wind gusts of 40-45mph" has caused the delay.
The weather is expected to improve on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
