I had a long look at Justin Rose before the tournament at $71, wondering why he was such long odds. Recent form isn't great but has plenty of Augusta form.
Either way I chickened out and took him for a top 10 rather than straight out. Still early days but he looked very solid today and he's certainly due a win here.
But in reality anyone +2 or better is still in it, especially if weekend weather is dicey. Spieth the one to watch, managed to hang pretty well and one good round puts him in the hunt.

Anyone else finding the Masters a bit dull this time? Or maybe just that golf is dull?
They seem to have set the course up tough this week to protect it and I can't see that changing on the final day. Hideki Matsuyama has a 4 shot lead so it is his to lose really as he shot a 65 while everyone else battled. Hideki always seems to be around the top 20 at big events so it will be interesting to see if he crumbles on the final day.

I used to watch the Masters final round every year in the 1990s and 2000s. Don't bother now. Perhaps there were more characters and variety in their play back in the day. But men hitting a ball big distances towards a hole became dull after a while.

Japan is going to go wild if he wins this.

he found the bunker on 18...just needs to find the green and 2 putt to win.
EDIT - 5 ft and 2 putts to win
