Cloud cover thickens up again in the afternoon with another low chance for a brief shower. That all added up to a scoring average of 4.629. The rest really isn’t up to me.”

Meanwhile, fellow American Scottie Scheffler showcased why he has been ranked as the number one golfer in the world by storming into a commanding lead. Woods is ...

I need to get myself there, that’s the key.” I told Joey [La Cava, his caddie] it’s tough for everyone, let’s get back to even for the day somehow. “I got a couple of bad gusts and made a couple of bad swings on top of that.

If Thursday at Augusta was like Christmas morning, frantically ripping the wrapping off a Tiger Woods return, Friday was a day to exhale.

And after looking like he might collapse early, he steadied the ship, using a stretch of 2 under on the day’s final six holes to finish at 74 — and the five-time champ now stands at 1 over for the tournament. Somebody better alert the FAA — Scheffler has reached cruising altitude. The conditions at Augusta National got a bit trickier and the 2022 Masters became more of a battle than a sprint. Get the hands a little more passive. Hands were a little too active. While that could have thrown Woods off, the additional rest seemed to help him as the day wore on.

AUGUSTA, Ga. : World number one Scottie Scheffler will take a commanding five- shot lead into the Masters third round on Saturday while Tiger Woods faces ...

"Never give up. "Fortunately, they found the ball," said Scheffler, about his adventures on the 18th. Advertisement

The cut has been made and 36 holes remain to crown the 2022 Masters champ. World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler begins Saturday with a sizeable lead.

Woods began his third round with a three-putt bogey, his 10-foot putt to save par skirting the left edge of the cup. The Masters is Woods’ first significant tournament since he shattered his right leg in a February 2021 car wreck. Instead of an eagle, he had an easy birdie putt that got him back to even for the day. But Woods chipped to within 3 feet and made the easy putt to stay even for the day. Woods casually struck the ball on what looked like a gimme putt for a three-putt bogey on the par-5 No. 5. But everyone has a lot of ground to make up, with Scottie Scheffler sitting on a five-stroke lead before he tees off for the third round. The five-time Masters champion is playing in his first significant tournament since shattering his right leg in a February 2021 car wreck. He had said it wasn't his game that was the concern but the physical demands of Augusta National, and it seemed as if he was running out of steam on the 11th hole. But he will need to be steady, which was what he was on the first hole, picking up a par. He birdied each of the par-5s, and his 4 on No. 15 got him to 7 under for the tournament. This is Woods' first significant tournament since shattering his right leg in a February 2021 car wreck, and he has said that the physical challenge would be his greatest obstacle. It ran about 2 feet past the hole, and he tapped in for a bogey.

Scottie Scheffler, the world's No. 1 player, ran away from the field on Friday. That included Tiger Woods, who made the cut after an eventful second round.

Augusta National Chairman Fred Ridley said Mickelson was invited but chose not to play. The second round of the Masters can be a time to go low. To add insult to injury, his short bogey putt rimmed out and he left the hole with a double after his second career Masters four-putt (the first was 17 years ago). But Thomas seems to have channeled that anger nicely. Both of Thomas’s birdies, at the second and third holes, came after he found the sand. Both Weiskopf and Johnny Miller missed makable birdie putts at the 18th to finish one stroke back of Nicklaus at the end. There are only a handful of golfers with under-par rounds at the third round of the Masters, which once again is being played in difficult conditions. Woods’s first three-putt bogey came on the first hole when his long birdie attempt up and over a ridge ended up well short of the hole, and he missed the nine-footer for par. But that club was Woods’s downfall Saturday at the Masters, as he had four three-putts and a four-putt on his way to a 6-over-par 78. Cameron Smith birdied the par-5 15th hole to move to 5 under par for his round and 7 under par for the tournament. Scheffler will be paired Sunday with Australia’s Cameron Smith, the only golfer who looks to pose any sort of challenge and, frankly, an appropriate competitor because it will settle for now the argument about who has been more dominant this year. Scheffler sent his tee shot dead left into the bush, and it took a not-insignificant amount of time to merely find his unplayable ball.

There's no hotter name in golf than Scottie Scheffler. The current No. 1 player in the world is also the big leader heading into the weekend at the 2022...

And while he never his name at the top of the leaderboard like he did early on in 2016, Scheffler’s overall tournament performance was much steadier. Scheffler has made five starts in major tournaments since, and has finished in the top 20 of every tournament. That “height advantage” hasn’t always been the case for Scheffler, though, who was actually on the shorter side until midway through his time high school, when he grew a full foot over his junior and senior years at Highland Park. “So the way I broke my ankle was not tough, but I did play on like a sprained ankle or whatever in the state tournament. It was my left ankle, and I just played all week with my foot turned out to the side and just kind of grinded it out I guess.” Scheffler’s opening-round 69, coupled with three separate rain delays that meant the majority of the field didn’t finish their rounds, gave him top billing for the day, even though a handful of golfers still on the course were a shot or two better at -3 and -2. One of the first pieces of golf hardware that Scheffler won was a UIL state championship in golf. Scheffler won the 4A 2013-2014 state title by six shots in a two-round event. Scheffler won the first four holes of the match and never looked back. And he made good use of that spot in the field. And it was the first-ever sub-60 round to happen without spectators, since it happened right in the heart of the COVID-19 pandemic. Stafford led the Rams to a win over Cincinnati while Scheffler outdueled Patrick Cantlay in a playoff to win the WM Phoenix Open. Meanwhile, Kershaw signed his latest eight-figure contract with the Dodgers a few short weeks later.

Scottie Scheffler is looking to earn his first green jacket at the 2022 Masters, but would it be his first major win?

1st 1st 5th 5th Scheffler's best finish at the Masters came in 2021 when he finished in a tie for 18th place. Scheffler had logged a top-10 finish in three of the PGA Tour's four majors entering the 2022 season.

But the chilly conditions at Augusta National were doing the 46-year-old's injury-ravaged body no favours, the 15-time major winner covering his first 12 holes ...

Woods needed a fairway wood to attempt to reach the green on the par-three fourth and tugged his shot left of the green, but produced a superb chip over a bunker to save par. After saving par on the first, Scheffler birdied the second and third to move six shots clear, before a bogey on the fourth and Lowry’s second birdie of the day on the sixth meant the gap was down to four. After a perfect drive on the first, Woods hit a mediocre approach and three-putted from long range for a disappointing bogey, but almost holed his greenside bunker shot for an eagle on the par-five second and tapped in for birdie.

No, Mecklin Ragan is not in Georgia to watch family friend Scottie Scheffler attempt to win the Masters, her general surgery residency keeping her in Columbus, ...

He earmarked $50,000 to the Triumph Over Kid Cancer Foundation. His donations have not stopped, and he has partnered with Mecklin to create a program that brings kids battling cancer into golf. And now Scheffler’s ascension coincides with Masters week, the week Mecklin and James held sacred. Now 30, Mecklin—who was inspired by James to dedicate her life to pediatric care—is amazed that Scheffler has remained true to who he is in spite of the new heights he’s reached. “I think Scottie respected how James was trying to live his life, to have fun and get good at a sport he enjoyed while trying to deal with cancer and trying to help others with cancer. I like to think as touched as James was by the support, people liked being around him because he was a constant inspiration. "He would come down on Friday and be right back in Austin the next day, but he wanted to do what he could to keep the memory of James going.” And through his education and golf and treatments James continued to spread the word on his mission, annually holding a golf scramble that doubled as a toga party to raise funds to battle the disease, an event Scottie never missed. Shortly after he was told the end was near. In college we would fire up our computers and stream it in the back of class,” Mecklin says. “He spent most of his time at the local golf course.” “I’ve never seen them so happy,” Mecklin says. The surgery replaced 40 percent of his femur and 20 percent of his tibia with metal.

Former Texas Longhorns Jordan Spieth and Scottie Scheffler tee off on Thursday with all of the eyes of Texas, and the rest of the golf world upon them.

Scheffler birdied his last two holes before he made the turn, and scored a par at No. 10. That would prove difficult for Scheffler after a rough start to the hole. However, Scheffler was able to recover quickly and had an opportunity to putt for birdie. However, Scheffler was once again able to overcome the set back, and knock in the ensuing putt for par. Scheffler has been steady throughout the round and continues to make clutch putt after clutch putt, as he makes his approach to No. 18 green. Spieth took an early jump on No. 2 with a birdie and looked to be in the groove early. Spieth will look to make a surge up the leaderboards in round two after a shaky round one. Meanwhile, Scottie Scheffler had a strong first round, entering day two at -3 and in a tie for third. After a bogie on No. 12, Scheffler was able to get a shot back on No. 13 with a birdie. Scheffler had an opportunity to grab a two-shot lead but missed his birdie par on No. 9. With the projected cut at +4, Spieth has little room for error. Now, he will look to continue his momentum into Saturday and further stretch his lead.

UPDATED LEADERBOARD AT 5:30 P.M. ET1 Scottie Scheffler -11 (10)T2 Cameron Smith -6 (13)T2 Charl Schwartzel -6 (10)4 Shane Lowry -4 (11)5 Corey Conners -2 ...

Leader Scottie Scheffler just added a vest at the third tee box. The weather channel says it's 50 degrees in Augusta right now, but no one actually out on the course would believe it. The par-3 16th will give him a chance at birdie and maybe another classic Verne call? He waved to the crowd, and had a look of relief on his face as he made his way to No. 13. But a third-round 71 is his best of the week, and he's currently T16 at +1. Woods had a difficult chip shot back onto the green and got too much on it, watching helplessly as it rolled to set up another three-putt “That's the guy you want to be playing with on Saturday at Augusta.” Scheffler has just birdied No. 13, getting back the stroke he lost with a bogey on No. 12. Getting into the clubhouse took a lot, and it'll be fascinating to see Smith and Scheffler duel on Sunday for the green jacket. He pulled out 3-iron, and struck it incredibly well, onto the green and rolling off the back of it. Scheffler and Cameron Smith – the two men to earn the most world ranking points in 2022 so far – will be together in the final pairing, where 26 of the last 31 Masters winners have come from. What's here and how to watch: We'll have updates from the course below, including everything Tiger does.

Scottie Scheffler leads by three shots from Cameron Smith going into the final round of the Masters at Augusta.

The Australian reached five under for his round at the 15th, giving a seven under total, before handing a shot back to the course on the par three 16th. Shane Lowry berated his caddie en route to a bogey at the 13th that shuffled him back to three under. The Irishman lies two under after a 73. Thomas, who signed for a 72 and one under total, must continue to rue his opening round of 76. It is to be remembered even playing in this Masters, let alone for 72 holes, is a remarkable achievement given the scale of his injuries after a car crash 14 months ago. The 28-year-old slipped back to even par at the 14th and collected shots at the 16th and 18th before a painful bogey at the last. Justin Thomas moved from one to three under par within a trio of holes. The greens were to bother Woods all day, with 36 putts included in a 78. As Scheffler dropped shots at the 14th and 15th, heads turned. Scheffler had birdied the 2nd and 3rd to move to double digits under par. His tee shot to the par five was wayward but rebounded from a tree and into semi-rough. Scheffler, playing in Schwartzel’s company, had no cause to feel threatened at all as Schwartzel holed out for a bogey.

Scheffler's lead fell from five strokes to three after he had four bogeys on the back nine on Saturday at Augusta National.

He missed the five-foot par putt but made up for it with birdies at No. 6 and No. 8, the latter of which pushed him to 11-under and gave him a six-shot lead. If he wins the Masters, he’ll be the first player to make the Masters his first win after becoming the world’s No. 1 since Ian Woosnam did it in 1991. With Scheffler back to 11-under and up five shots, he squandered a chance to maintain or build on that lead. He wrapped up the front nine with a par at the par-4 ninth. At 15, Scheffler played cautiously and his third shot found the green, but above the hole, leaving him about 30 feet for birdie. Briefly, Scheffler’s lead fell to three shots after Smith played the 15th hole perfectly and made a birdie. Scheffler played with an utter unflappability on the front nine, playing in the final group with Schwartzel. He also continued his mastery of Augusta National’s risk-reward par-5s. The list of players that have done it before include Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus and fellow Longhorn Jordan Spieth, who held the 36-hole lead on his way to his 2015 championship. Instead, Cameron Smith will play with Scheffler on Sunday after shooting a 4-under 68 and finishing three shots back. He decided to take an unplayable lie and a drop, which put him playing his third shot off pine straw about 250 yards away from the green. He chose to putt off the fringe and rolled it to about three feet and made an incredible bogey. His ball was surrounded by branches and Scheffler discussed his options with a rules official.

The final pairing will see the two form golfers of the PGA Tour go head-to-head on the famous course, with Smith aiming to be the first since Adam Scott in 2013 ...

After three rounds at the Masters, he remained on track for a breakthrough major win. The Texan had bogeys on the 12th, 14th and 15th. For Tiger Woods, it was a tough day. He got it done, to finish on six under to set up an intriguing final day. One of them was Smith, who was coming off a win in The Players Championship last month. Starting the day at two under, six back of Scheffler, Smith birdied the second but gave it back on the third.

He took a record-tying 5-shot, 36-hole lead into Saturday. Herman Keiser, Jack Nicklaus, Ray Floyd and Jordan Spieth donned a green jackets after leading by ...

I just know the shot that I see and try to hit it, and after that it's not up to me.” Through 54 holes this week, Smith has 16 birdies and Scheffler 17. “The rest isn't up to me,” Scheffler said. And so that's something I've worked on, just being focused, and committed to each shot.” History suggests Scheffler controls his own destiny, but things can always go wrong. “He was 100 percent correct.

Scottie Scheffler leads the 2022 Masters with just one round to play, but can he hold off Cameron Smith? Our staff predicts Sunday's winner.

Jessica Marksbury, senior editor ( @jess_marksbury): I want to believe in Scottie, but we all know that Sunday afternoon at the Masters is a different animal, and a three-shot cushion is basically nothing. The dude is entering Masters Sunday with a three-stroke lead and only two players within six shots of him. Scheffler sits at nine under, and the chasers include Cameron Smith (six under), Sungjae Im (four under) and Shane Lowry and Charl Schwartzel (both at two under). Justin Thomas and Corey Conners (both at one under) are the only two other players under par.

This was the no-man's land that Scottie Scheffler had duck-hooked his tee shot, suddenly casting a Masters he had been dominating for days on end into doubt.

There was some final hole drama of the third round at the Masters, which sets up the prospect of a thrilling final day. Scottie Scheffler, who looked to be ...

All the while, Smith was making his move. He recovered in magnificent fashion just a hole later, claiming a vital birdie on the penultimate hole to once again stretch his lead to four. He was able to produce an extraordinary shot to get his ball near the green but the penalty meant he finished with a bogey on the final hole, eventually carding a one-under par 71 on Saturday.

Masters leader Scottie Scheffler hit a wild tee on the 18th hole Saturday. For rules buffs, that's when things got really interesting.

Three-iron in hand, he morphed back into the world’s hottest golfer and laced a shot up to the left side of the green, his ball running by the back-left pin and just off the back of the green. When Scheffler had identified a suitable spot on which to drop, he dropped his ball from knee-level but it kicked into an area that was closer to the hole. Scheffler’s ball was close enough to the bed of needles by the fairway to take his drop there. Scheffler asked the official if he could move pine needles — which are loose impediments — in the intended area of his drop. … I was a bit of a hothead I think in high school and college, so to be able to just stay patient and realize mistakes are going to come, and winning golf tournaments out here is not easy. A return to the tee could have easily resulted in a double-bogey 6 for Scheffler, which would have cut his 54-hole to just two. If it didn’t turn up in the three minutes permitted under the rules, Scheffler would have had to return to the tee and play his third. The resulting spot gave him both a clean lie and a clean look at the green. Scheffler’s ball disappeared into the pines and descended into a snarl of bushes and branches below. The good news: the ball turned up. He wasn’t leading by seven, as he had been when he made the turn on this Masters Saturday, but he still enjoyed a four-shot advantage when he stepped on to the 18th tee. Up ahead of him, Cameron Smith had already signed for a four-under 68 that had moved him to six under for the tournament.

Impressive and bogey aren't usually used in the same sentence, but 54-hole leader Scottie Scheffler made one on the 18th hole on Saturday at the Masters ...

Yet Scheffler did what many of his fellow competitors before him couldn’t do with his next shot: He hit a gentle chip that stayed up on the top tier of the green, nestling it to two feet. When Scheffler took his drop, it rolled outside the two clublengths, requiring a second drop. • Could he move some of the pine needles before he dropped the ball? And then all I was trying to do was figure out how I was going to get it on the green for my third shot. It would be his third shot after adding the unplayable penalty. His ball rattled in the trees left of the fairway only 220-some yards up the hole.

This Masters was no longer a coronation, not yet anyway: Up by seven at one point Saturday, Scheffler signed for a 1-under 71.

“Yesterday was easy,” Smith said of watching Scheffler shoot 67 on Friday to claim a five-stroke lead at the midway point. “Today's had a little more drama.”.

“He’s gotta stay on the offensive side; if he stays on the offensive side, I think it’s served him pretty well; that’s offense with a great deal of common sense.” “Definitely a good finish to the day.” Even with Smith and Sungjae Im, solo third at 4 under, as the only players within five strokes of the lead, Smith is ready to watch another nail biter. “Teddy was like, ‘I saw it clip a branch,’ we’re like, ‘No big deal, just be over there on the left and chip out, whatever.’ And then we saw the guy with the flag that always finds the balls kind of panicking,” Scheffler recounted. “Scrapping and scraping,” Smith said. And those words were uttered before he took three putts at 15 and hooked his tee shot at 18 into a bush and scrambled to salvage bogey.
