Hideto Tanihara, Ross Fisher bring Masters field to 92

AUSTIN, Texas -- Hideto Tanihara came up short in his bid for a WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play Championship title on Sunday, while Ross Fisher was bounced one day earlier. But they're each leaving this tournament with a handsome consolation prize -- a trip down Magnolia Lane.

By advancing into the weekend rounds of the Match Play, both Tanihara and Fisher jumped into the top-50 of the final Official World Golf Ranking in which players can qualify for the upcoming Masters Tournament.

"My whole goal starting the year was to get into the Masters," Tanihara said after advancing to the semifinals, which he lost, 1-up, to Dustin Johnson.
