It's the close of Moving Day at the 2017 Masters. And here's five things we have learnt today.
Rory McIlroy has confirmed that he will miss the par-three competition at the Masters this year. He thinks the event is becoming too much of a hassle.
What a contrast to November. Augusta is baked hard and causing the world's top players all sorts of troubles, except for one Justin Rose, of course! Here are some of the main talking points from day one.
Rory McIlroy shot a brilliant 64 to force himself into contention for a first win of the year in the British Masters.
Lilac was the colour of the day at The Masters as the leaders appeared to have coordinated their wardrobes to don shirts of the same hue. The three players that lead in to the final round chose the colour for their shirt with Tiger again modelling a very snazzy mock turtle neck number. Ian Poulter, always one to be different, went instead for a lilac pair of strides.
The Masters (5th-8th April) has seen its fair share of shock winners down the years, with the likes of Danny Willet (2016) and Angel Cabrera (2009) embarrassing those setting odds for the tournament. While it has a decent record of delivering on the favourites, the bookmakers can often get it wrong.
The forecast suggested that Augusta might be battered by storms today, but in reality it was an assembly of world class players who took this course to task. With Augusta’s oleaginous defences somewhat neutered by the moisture, a select band of extraordinary talents took full advantage.
We had everything on Friday at The Masters: A stellar leaderboard; birdies galore; storm threats; unbelievable recovery shots; a marshall slide-tackling Tiger Woods on the 14th hole (he still made birdie) and some truly comical moments starring Zach Johnson, Rory McIlroy and Kiradech Aphibarnrat.
So three of our favorites won this weekend across the world, and here is what they used...
Jeunghun Wang has opened up a three–shot lead on moving day at the Commercial Bank Qatar Masters, so it's all change at the top after yesterday's nine–way tie.
Ernie Els had a nighmare moving day round at the Masters, shooting an 83 to end the day at at +14 and in last place.
