Ideal weather for the Sunday shootout at Augusta...scoreboard /tee times

 The Masters: Leader Board Tee Times

After a Thursday morning rain delay, and a Friday sandstorm, Sunday at the Masters will be a picture perfect Georgia day, with sunny skies, no more than 14kph SW breeze come the back nine and 29*c (84*f)

The legendary greens are as fast as ever, Augusta National is providing another stern test, its most famous patron, Tiger Woods was humbled by a +10 82.

The familiar bearded face of Scottie Scheffler birdied the 1st to get to -7 and that's where he ended after an up and down 71 to lead by a shot.  

Lady Luck was on his side at the par 5 13th after his approach caught the wrong side of a mound almost rolling off the green, However his 35 footer trundeled into the cup for an eagle after a double at 10 and a bogey at 11 for his TSN turning point.

Collin Morikawa shot an admirable 69 to grab a spot with Scheffler in the final pairing at -6.

Max Homa was Steady Eddie with 17 pars, just 1 bogey and at -5 he will play with the super Swede, Masters rookie Ludvig Aberg from the DP World Tour who was brilliant and bogey free at -4 on his round after 13 holes, but dropped shots at 14 and 15, to join Homa in the penultimate paring at -4.

DeChambeau shot 75 thanks to a lucky hole out from 80 yards at the 18th after hitting his tee shot into the trees and at -3 he will be in the 3rd last pairing with Xander Schauffele who had a bogey free -2 70.

With Augusta playing fast and firm I don't foresee any course record on Sunday, and I don't expect the ever steady Scheffler to crumble, he is of course everyone's pick again, but I'd like to see the rookie Ludvig Aberg who rejected LIV money in order to play the DP World/PGA tours, to become the first Masters rookie since Fuzzy Zoeller in 1979 to win and make Swedish history. 

Canadians

Corey Conners T36 70 76 76 +6

Adam Hadwin  T59 75 73 82 +14
