Who Are The Best Active Male Golfers Yet To Win A Major?

Tommy Fleetwood waves to the crowd, Viktor Hovland hits a drive.

A professional golfer's career is often judged by how many Majors they win, with it taking a special caliber of player to secure one of golf's big four championships.

Multiple names have either claimed The Masters, PGA Championship, US Open or Open Championship but, for some, the taste of Major success never comes.

Just because a player possesses an exceptional record on their respective Tours, it doesn't mean it'll translate to victories in the four Majors.

The likes of Colin Montgomerie, Lee Westwood and Luke Donald are prime examples, with the trio claiming win-after-win on the DP World Tour, but never securing a Major.

It's the same for the current crop of players and, below, we've listed some of the best active male golfers who are yet to etch their name on a Major trophy.

Listed in no particular order, there will be some names we have missed, but these are some of the biggest in the game right now without a Major win.
