Newly crowned Masters champion Danny Willett has joined the PGA Tour following his shock victory at Augusta. The 28-year-old Englishman has been given a five-year exemption which will allow him to play on the tour until the 2020-21 season, the PGA tour said in a statement. The world number nine was also handed 600 ranking points in the FedExCup for his Masters triumph earlier this month. Willett needs to finish in the top 125 in the FedExCup standings to gain entry to the lucrative end-of-season FedExCup Playoffs. Willett was ranked outside the top 100 as recently as November 2014 but on April 10 became the first Briton since Nick Faldo in 1996 to win the green jacket.
