AUGUSTA, Ga. — The third day of action at the 2024 Masters is going to be a significant one as Moving Day meets Augusta National with the leaderboard undoubtedly shifting ahead of the tournament’s final 18 holes. Two days of pristine golf at the nation’s best course remain with the best hoping to finish not just in the money but as high up the leaderboard as possible.
The grounds are filled to capacity with patrons, and they were undoubtedly keen to see how Tiger Woods continues to play after he created Masters history on Friday by making his 24th consecutive cut, a tournament record. Woods also hit 22 of 36 fairways through his first two rounds, his best such mark since 1999.
Though he was on the edge of contention entering Saturday, after shooting his highest nine-hole total in Masters history going 6 over on the first nine, Tiger is now firmly out of contention with some questioning whether he will finish 72 holes at all. Meanwhile, Rory McIlroy — after an extended session on the range Friday night — shot one of the better rounds of Saturday’s early wave. Neither he nor reigning Masters champion Jon Rahm are a threat to those atop the leaderboard.
Far more likely to find the winner’s circle is Scottie Scheffler, the 2022 green jacket winner seeking to win his second in three years. Scheffler entered as an overwhelming favorite and sits +100 to win the tournament entering Saturday’s third round. He is one of three men tied atop the leaderboard with Max Homa the author of Friday’s best performance and Bryson DeChambeau holding steady looking for his second major championship and first since 2020. Who pulls ahead between that trio remains to be seen, but you can follow 2024 Masters leaderboard live updates throughout Round 3 right here and find out.
There is so much to pay attention to this week that it can be overwhelming at times. No worries: We have you covered. On Saturday alone, you can watch the entire first rounds from Woods, McIlroy, Rickie Fowler, Hideki Matsuyama and young sensation Ludvig Åberg.
