Scottie Scheffler of The United States plays his second shot on the 17th hole during the third round of the 2024 Masters Tournament at Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Georgia. AFPAUGUSTA—Top-ranked Scottie Scheffler battled through a back-nine shootout to seize a one-stroke lead over Collin Morikawa after Saturday’s third round of the Masters while Tiger Woods endured a nightmare collapse.
“The putts were important to me. I try to feed off the positive energy of seeing the ball go in,” Scheffler said. “Did a good job of staying patient, had the eagle at 13 and finished well.” Bryson DeChambeau, the 2020 US Open champion, holed out from 77 yards at the 18th for birdie to shoot 75 and stand fifth on 213, four shots back.
“I was not hitting it very good or putting well,” Woods said. “Just hit the ball in all the places that I know I shouldn’t hit it.” He went over the 10th green with his approach and three-putted for double-bogey then missed a five-foot par putt at 11. After a bogey at the par-3 sixth and birdie at the par-5 eighth, he parred his way to the clubhouse, hitting every fairway for the first time in any major.Aberg, a member of Europe’s triumphant 2023 Ryder Cup squad, fired a 70 in his bid to become the first rookie to win the green jacket since Fuzzy Zoeller in 1979.
