AUGUSTA, Ga. — Play continues at Augusta National Golf Club on Saturday with the first 36 holes of play at the 2023 Masters completed earlier in the morning. Inclement weather continues to visit the nation’s most pristine course for the second straight day, and it not letting up as the afternoon rolls through. Follow Masters live leaderboard coverage with updates throughout the day.
Featuring a star-studded field featuring most of the best golfers in the world, the 87th playing of the Masters is not without a long list of storylines to follow over the weekend. Chief among them is a resurgent Brooks Koepka, who rode an early tee time with crystal-clear weather to the clubhouse lead at 12 under, two shots clear of Jon Rahm and four ahead of amateur Sam Bennett of Texas A&M. Kopeka, who finished 55th or worse at all four majors in 2022, is looking to win his fifth such title while closing one of two remaining career grand slam legs. While he has not won a major since 2019, his health and headspace seem to be healed to the point where he will be able to go after the big dogs this weekend. Rahm opened Saturday with his entire second nine from Round 2 left to play; he went out in 1 under, one of only a few golfers to actually go low amid the heavy wind and rain faced in the morning.
This week has not been great for three more of the sport’s big names. Scottie Scheffler, the reigning champion, played himself out of contention. Rory McIlroy’s quest to complete his career grand slam fell short with the Ulsterman missing the cut at Augusta National for the second time in three years. Five-time Masters champion Tiger Woods began Saturday straddling the cutline but ultimately made it to the weekend for his 23rd consecutive Masters, tying an all-time record held by Fred Couples and Gary Player.
While attending the Masters is a dream for many, simply being able to watch golf on the grandest stage of them all is an incredible treat each year, and we here at CBS Sports are thrilled to bring you wall-to-wall coverage of the Masters throughout this week.
