Seizes lead with stunning bogey-free 65; four share second four strokes behind
Hideki Matsuyama unleashed an incredible back-nine shot-making display to seize a four-stroke lead after Saturday's third round of the Masters, putting the Japanese star on the brink of a historic triumph at Augusta National. Matsuyama, trying to become the first Japanese man to win a Major title, fired a seven-under 65, his career-low 18-hole Masters total and the first bogey-free round of the week, to stand on 11-under 205. England's Justin Rose, Australian Marc Leishman and Americans Xander Schauffele and Will Zalatoris shared second on 209.More Related News
