The Masters 2024 Day Three LIVE: Leaderboard and updates as World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler shares the lead after the second round with Tiger Woods making record breaking 24th consecutive cut

Under-par rounds were hard to come by on Friday. Rounds in the 60s even more so.

In fact, they were so hard to come by that onyl one man managed it; Ludvig Aberg.

The unflappable Swede, making his Masters debut, shot the lone sub-70 score on Day Two, firing a three-under 69 to work his way uo the leaderboard, despite the dificult conditions.

Fowler tries to scramble, bumping a chip shot onto the dancefloor to have 12 feet for par.

But he's left it high and it rolls by the right edge of the cup, leaving him with three feet back for bogey.

Meanwhile, Matsuyama plays Tea Olive in a steady even par.

Fowler's ball didn't actually quite find the pines, just the rough. But he's still left with a tricky shot into the green with the low-hanging branches blocking his view.

He tries to play a big high cut but it just doesn't move coming out of that second cut of rough and it flies over the back left of the green into the patrons. And that's far from an easy chip onto the dancefloor.

Just to give you some indication of how hard Augusta was playing yesterday, Saturday's first group of Fowler and Matsuyama both start their third rounds at six-over.

Yes, you read that right, six-over. That was the cut mark... at a major championship.

But Fowler and former champion Matsuyama will look to claw their way up the leaderboard to a score that's, well, just better than six-over.

They were probably already packing up their lockers and ready to head home after their rounds yesterday so they have nothing to lose, quite literally.

They get our 2024 moving day at The Masters underway with Matsuyama safely up the fairway, while Fowler finds the straw right of the fairway bunker.

We're just five minutes away from the first pairing of the day, Rickie Fowler and Hideki Matsuyama, teeing off.

So here's how the leaderboard stands heading into Day Three...

-6 M Homa, b DeChambeau, S Scheffler

-4 N Hojgaard

-3 C Davis, C Morikawa

-2 L Aberg

-1 T Fleetwood, C Young, D Willett and others

E P Reed, S traka, M Fitzpatrick, X Scahuffele and others

+1 T Woods and E Cole

+2 T Hatton, B koepka and others

Scottie Schefler's pregnant wife Meredith didn't make the trip to Augusta this year with his high school sweetheart set to go into labor any time soon.

And, in her absence. the World No. 1 revealed he had to cook his own breakfast yesterday morning. I mean, can you imagine?

Former USA Ryder Cup captain Zach Johnson was caught angrily telling fans to 'f*** off' after missing a putt on Friday.

Johnson, who led the American team at last year's Ryder Cup in Rome, was having a difficult second round at Augusta National.

He was scrambling to save a double bogey on the 12th hole when he missed a putt from around 10 feet.

After walking over to his ball and tapping it in from close range for a triple bogey, a ripple of applause emerged from the patrons gathered around the green.

Infuriated by the gesture, he angrily shouted 'f*** off' and it was picked up clearly by microphones nearby.

Out with Tiger today is one of LIV Golf's latest rebels, Tyrrell Hatton,

Woods has made his stance on the Saudi-funded breakaway very clear in the past with Jon Rahm even claiming he received silent treatment from the 15-time major winner following his own defection.

And I can't imagine this pairing is going to be any more talkative, somehow.

The most we'll hear from this pairing is likely Hatton's expletive profanities. At least the Englishman has the temper to deal with Woods' galleries.

Now, Bryson DeChambeau has never held back from showing off his strength on the gold course but tearing up sign posts is a new one, even for him.

DeChambeau lost his way at the 13th, finding the sign in the way of his second shot. His solution? Simply yanking it from the ground. You know, as you do.

He looks like he has a cross to bear. Atoning for your LIV defection, Bryson?

It was just before 8am and Tiger Woods stood in shafts of glinting early morning sunlight at the foot of the slope that leads up to the 14th green at Augusta National.

He bumped a chip up towards the putting surface and watched it roll 22ft past the hole. He judged the line of his par putt perfectly but left it a foot short. He stared sullenly at his ball.

The pain in the limbs and the joints of Woods’s body, a body ravaged by time, misadventure and the relentless pursuit of greatness is at its worst after dawn and he thrust his hands deep into his pockets as he walked towards the 15th tee, his expression set and grim. People called out words of encouragement but he did not seem to hear.

This was the start of Tiger Woods’s longest day, a day when the weather, the fates and The Masters tee times had conspired to bequeath to this generation’s greatest golfer, a man held together by metal rods and spinal fusion surgery and ankle fusion surgery, the physical challenge of playing 23 holes before the end of the afternoon.

Well it's good news for Rahm today then! After his moan about the winds yesterday the Spaniard will be pleased to wake up to a forecast of 'gentle breeze.'

I can't promise that the greens of Augusta National will be playing any easier though as the surfaces will be a hard as they come after baking under full sun and 25C/77F temperatures.

Defending champion Jon Rahm just about avoided the embarrassment of missing the cut on his title defense but the Spaniard still had a moan about the weather conditions at Augusta yesterday.

He hit out at organizers of The Masters for their refusal to suspend play as 40mph winds caused chaos during Friday's second round.

It's moving day at Augusta National and you know what that means - we're in for a whole lot of action!

Augusta claimed a lot of victims yesterday - Justin Thomas, Sergio Garcia, Wyndham Clark, Viktor Hovland, Jordan Spieth, Dustin Johnson - but not the Big Cat.

That's right, Tiger Woods made his 24th consecutive cut at The Masters. That's a record, if you hadn't heard.

He's seven shots of leaders Scottie Scheffler, Max Homa and Bryson DeChambeau with the hunting pack hot on their heels. So, will anyone chase them down today?

Stay tunes as we bring you all the action from Day Three of The Masters.
