Nick Taylor , Corey Conners , Taylor Pendrith , Mackenzie Hughes and Adam Hadwin are in the field at the Masters .

Taylor has five PGA Tour wins, compared with two for Conners and two for Hughes , and one each for Hadwin .

The 36-year-old has missed the cut in his past nine major championships.

The next step is battling hard on Sunday afternoon and with a legitimate shot at victory, to become the second Canadian in golf's exclusive club of men's major champions.

Pendrith will be paired in a group with Fred Couples over the first two days of the Masters.

The Canadian hopes to become just the second Masters rookie to win the green jacket.

Fuzzy Zoeller won in his first attempt in 1979 at Augusta in 1979 .

“I feel like my game’s good right now and I feel like we just tried to learn as much as we could today ,” says Canadian player.
