The 1994 Masters Tournament was the 58th Masters Tournament, held April 7–10 at Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Georgia.

José María Olazábal won the first of his two Masters titles, two strokes ahead of runner-up Tom Lehman,[1][2][3] and became the sixth winner from Europe in the past seven Masters. Olazábal was the second champion from Spain, following Seve Ballesteros, the winner in 1980 and 1983.

Larry Mize, the 1987 champion, led after each of the first and second rounds. Lehman assumed the third round lead with one of two 69s shot that day (Olazábal had the other).

In the final round, Olazábal, Lehman, and Mize shared the lead entering the back nine. Mize made three bogeys coming home and fell out of contention. Olazábal eagled 15 which gave him a lead over Lehman which he never relinquished.

Fred Couples, the 1992 champion, did not play due to back problems.[4]
