THEY SAY THE Masters only begins on the back nine on Sunday — but it might be a done deal already.
Long-time leader Jordan Spieth now holds a massive five-shot advantage as the final group turns for home at Augusta National.
Spieth has had a few nervy moments, including bogeys at the fifth and the seventh, but he also carded three birdies to move to -17.
His closest rival Justin Rose opened with a birdie-birdie start but bogeyed both the sixth and the ninth holes to drop back to -12.
Phil Mickelson is also -12 after he opened the back nine with a birdie at 10.
As the final groups head through Augusta’s iconic Amen Corner, can anyone catch Spieth? Or is the 21-year-old about to be crowned Masters champion?
Here’s the leaderboard at 10.05pm:
