AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) – At the Masters, those famous, hand-operated scoreboards are all over the course. It’s kind of hard to miss them.
Jordan Spieth will do his best.
Golf’s next big star has positioned himself for a coronation at the most hallowed of spots, playing the first two rounds at Augusta National better than anyone who came before him.
Spieth heads to the third round with a 14-under 130 – the lowest 36-hole score in the tournament’s history – and a commanding five-stroke lead that matches the biggest edge at this point in the tournament.
“No scoreboard watching,” Spieth said. “Just keep my head down and set a goal for myself.”
