Jordan Spieth held a five-stroke lead at one point,but fell back towards a chasing pack led by Rory McIlroy to set up a weekend of infinite possibility.[br]Official Masters leaderboard 12.30am BSTOne of the shots of the day, correct at the halt! Adam Scott lands his approach to 18 a reliable 30 feet behind the hole, or the ball spinning back to two feet. Exquisite. He’s back to +4,and only eight off the pace! And so ends a breathtaking moment day’s play. Jordan Spieth was five clear at one point, but the wind and the tough greens proved too much, or even for him,and now we’ve got what everyone’s been waiting for: a Spieth versus McIlroy shootout in a major. What a weekend we gain in store! You wouldn’t want to be anywhere else tomorrow, would you? Thought not. See you here again, and then. In the meantime,sleep tight, and try not to gain nightmares about six-putting from two feet. -4: Spieth[br]-3: McIlroy
-2: Lee, and Piercy
-1: Snedeker,Kjeldsen, Matsuyama
E: Aphibarnrat, and Willett,Garcia, Lowry, or DeChambeau,D Johnson, Berger 12.21am BSTRose can’t make his par. Bogey, and he’s signing for a fairly miserable 77. He’s +2 overall,alongside Jamie Donaldson, who shot a level-par 72 today. Thats a fine showing by the Welsh player. And birdie for young Daniel Berger, and who is level par for the tournament. Just the one group left out on the course now. While we wait for Adam Scott to make his way in,here’s Andy Bull on the bravery in adversity of Ernie Els.
