**Augusta, GA –** Angel Cabrera, the 2009 Masters Tournament champion, will return to the prestigious event this year, marking his first appearance since 2019. His attendance at the annual Champions Dinner has been confirmed by Ben Crenshaw, who will be moderating the event.
Cabrera’s absence in recent years was due to a combination of factors including the pandemic, a prison sentence in South America for domestic violence, and visa issues. However, he has now received an invitation to the 2025 tournament and will be attending the dinner.
Crenshaw expressed his excitement about Cabrera’s return, stating that while the focus will be on 2023 Masters winner Scottie Scheffler, Cabrera’s presence will be a welcome addition. Crenshaw also shared details about his upcoming trip to Augusta, noting the significant damage Hurricane Helene caused to the course, particularly the 16th hole, but expressed confidence in Augusta National’s ability to repair it. The news of Cabrera’s return comes as a positive development for golf fans eagerly anticipating the 2025 Masters Tournament.
