Scottie Scheffler holds a one-shot lead heading into the final Sunday at The Masters, with Collin Morikawa, Max Homa and Ludvig Aberg all hot on his heels and chasing the green jacket at Augusta National.
It promises to be a fantastic final day of action, with the likes of Bryson DeChambeau and Xander Schauffele not entirely out of the running either, though needing a strong run of form with no room for mistakes. Aberg in particular is hoping to push his case to be a first-ever debutant victor at the Masters, following on from his exploits at the Ryder Cup.
It’s Scheffler, though, after a third-round 71 put him seven under par, who leads the way and who will be man to catch as he chases his second Masters title. Rory McIlroy couldn’t haul himself back among the contenders on Saturday, while Tiger Woods made a record-breaking 24th consecutive cut at the tournament, only to then suffer a torrid day yesterday, clocking a round of ten over.

Sandy save for Fleetwood
Young -1 (4), Fleetwood -2 (4)
Tommy recovers well from his tee shot landing in the bunker to make par at the fourth. Young takes a backward step, though, with a bogey. He can’t afford many of those.

Stress-free pars for Homa and Aberg
Homa -5 (1), Aberg -4 (1)
Aberg is in position A from the middle of the fairway and fires a dart into the heart of the green. A great chance for birdie but he doesn’t get it to the hole.
Homa has to get creative from the left side of the fairway but it’s a beautiful draw that spins towards the hole as it catches the green. His birdie putt is a good one but it dies away to the left.
Still, two stress-free pars for our penultimate duo.

The final pairing are off
Scheffler -7, Morikawa -6
Strap in, folks. Scheffler and Morikawa arrive at the first tee box as the final pairing gets ready to head off. Scheffler has the lead and the form, and Morikawa the major championship know-how.
Both stripe their drives down the middle.

Opening-hole bogey for DeChambeau
Bryson DeChambeau -2 (1), Xander Schauffele -2 (1)
Another one of the chasers falls victim to the first hole. In the bunker off the tee and out of position with his approach into the green. It’s a tough two-putt from there and it’s even harder after he races the first effort past the hole.
A bogey moves him five back off Scheffler now as his playing partner Schauffele nudges his in for a par.

Cam Young gets up and running
Young -2 (3), Fleetwood -2 (3)
It’s only an outside chance for Tommy at the third but he’s more than happy to roll that up holeside and tap in for his par.
Cam Young, though, gets his round up and running with a birdie to move alongside his playing partner on -2.

Eagle for Smith
Cam Smith out of nowhere! The Aussie knows what it takes to win a major and has suddenly snuck up into the top five after he holes out from the greenside bunker on two for eagle. Can he make a charge at Scheffler?
His playing partner Byeong-Hun An has to settle for a birdie, a good response after his opening-hole birdie.
Ben Fleming14 April 2024 19:26
Double bogey for Hojgaard
Cameron Davis -1 (1), Nicolai Hojgaard E (1)
A horrible, nervy start for this group. Hojgaard’s horrible tee shot leads to a costly double bogey, while Davis goes over the back of the green and can’t get up and down to save his par.
Moving in the wrong direction early on.

Bryson underway
Bryson DeChambeau -3, Xander Schauffele -2
Motoring through these tee times now as DeChambeau and Schauffele get underway. Bryson finds the bunker with his tee shot, while Xander creams one down the middle.
The cameras pan back to Max Homa who makes his walk from the clubhouse to the first tee – him and Ludvig Aberg will be up next.

Almost back-to-back for Fleetwood
Young -1 (2), Fleetwood -2 (2)
A poor drive off the par-5 second prevents Fleetwood from taking the green on in two but he’s left with a tricky downhill putt from the fringe. It’s on a good line and oh so nearly drops in but just has too much speed to catch the lip. He taps in for the par.
Young sees his birdie effort run out of steam so he’s started par-par.
Ben Fleming14 April 2024 19:17
Hojgaard in trouble off the first
Cameron Davis -2, Nicolai Hojgaard -2
It was a poor end to the third round for the Dane and he’s not made a great start to the second as he snap hooks his drive off the first tee. That will be a tricky one to save par from.
