BREAKING: Scottie Scheffler has captured his first major championship with a three-stroke victory at the Masters. The world's top-ranked player has now won four of his last six tournaments.
Smith shot 73 and finished five shots behind the winner, in a tie for third place with Shane Lowry.
Smith trailed by three on the 12th tee but knew immediately his tee shot was in trouble. It splashed short of the green. His pitch from the penalty area sailed long to drop him well off the pace at 4 under. The big move is coming from Rory McIlroy. An eagle on the par-5 13th pushed him to 6 under for the tournament.The Masters is back where the day started, with Scottie Scheffler leading Cameron Smith by three shots.
The 23-year-old Lee shot a 6-under 30 on the front nine to surge into red numbers. Lee eagled the par-5 second hole after an approach shot that landed 4 feet from the cup. He then added a string of birdies at Nos. 6, 7, 8 and 9 to get to 2 under overall. He sent that putt about 6 feet past the hole, then made the comebacker for par. Woods was 3 over for the day at that point, 10 over for the tournament with five holes remaining.The former world No. 1 and five-time Masters champion is clearly laboring as he walks the course at Augusta National. He’s been using his clubs as makeshift canes on some of his walks, gently leaning on them from time to time.
