The Masters leaderboard is constantly changing as the field gets whittled down to a few true contenders. Fortunately, bettors have an arsenal of trends and correlated stats to help parse the field and find a champion in Augusta.
It’s Moving Day at The Masters and the chase for the green jacket is about to get really interesting. Justin Rose held the top spot through two rounds, but fell down a bit after a three-over 75 on Saturday.
He is tied with Corey Conners and Scottie Scheffler for second, four shots behind the leader. Rory McIlroy is also in the mix after a solid round of 66. A double bogey on 13 dropped him to the bottom of the pack, but he was only one shot off the lead through 15 holes.
England’s Tyrrell Hatton is the new Masters leader after a 4-under 68 on Saturday. He is joined by fellow LIV Golf representatives Collin Morikawa and Scottie Scheffler.
The defending champion Scottie Scheffler is just off the lead after a 3-under 69 on Saturday. He’s tied with Aaron Rai, who birdied No. 7.
Nicolai Hojgaard might have the most psychotic Masters scorecard of all time. The Norwegian has five bogeys, four birdies and three double-bogeys.
The top 50 players and ties advance to the weekend, so the cut line at Augusta is pretty low this year. That’s a good thing for PGA Tour favorites Jon Rahm and Brooks Koepka.
