:00:27. > :00:31.Good afternoon. We are live from Augusta. Coming up soon highlights
:00:31. > :00:34.of the second day's play but as you have probably been hearing
:00:34. > :00:39.overnight, there's a big story brewing here involving the world
:00:39. > :00:44.number one, Tiger Woods. And suggestions that he might be
:00:44. > :00:48.disqualified from this, the 77th playing of the Masters Tournament.
:00:48. > :00:54.It stems from an incident in yesterday's second round. This was
:00:54. > :01:03.Tiger at the long par 5 15th. It's the third shot. A magnificent shot
:01:03. > :01:12.Amazing, but fantastically unlucky to have hit the flag stick and
:01:12. > :01:16.what will he do? He will have to take a drop. Will he go to the
:01:16. > :01:20.dropping zone? He has a good look up by the
:01:20. > :01:25.water's edge here. He assesses his options. He doesn't
:01:25. > :01:30.like them and walks back. Walks back to where he played the
:01:30. > :01:34.original ball, you will see the divot mark on the turf. He looks
:01:34. > :01:40.around, and as he says himself, he drops a couple of yards away. But
:01:40. > :01:50.it's the positioning of that drop that is in question. That is the
:01:50. > :01:50.
:01:50. > :01:53.area of contention. He gathers himself. And under the
:01:53. > :02:03.circumstances, performs something of a miracle shot here. It's worth
:02:03. > :02:21.
:02:21. > :02:25.stunning recovery from Woods. He would make that putt for a one over
:02:25. > :02:29.par score of six. It looks like that's a miracle recovery from
:02:29. > :02:39.Woods and this is how he explained his decision-making process about
:02:39. > :02:42.
:02:42. > :02:45.wasn't very good in the grain, tough shot. I went back to where I
:02:45. > :02:49.was and took two yards further back and tried to hit the shot another
:02:49. > :02:59.two yards off of what I felt like I hit it.
:02:59. > :03:12.
:03:12. > :03:18.However, the United States Golf causing all of the confusion and in
:03:19. > :03:23.Woods' case I am sure anxiety over this. If it is illegal he has
:03:23. > :03:28.therefore signed for an incorrect score on his card. He is still in
:03:28. > :03:31.the field, as we go towards round three. Wayne and Peter are with me
:03:31. > :03:36.this morning. This is going to be confusion for a lot of golfers who
:03:36. > :03:40.have always been thought you can go as far back as you like as you
:03:40. > :03:43.cross a water hazard. Explain what's going on here, Wayne. He had
:03:43. > :03:47.three options. Play from where he played originally, go to the drop
:03:47. > :03:50.zone or where the ball last crossed the hazard and it wasn't in the air,
:03:50. > :03:55.it was when it hit the flag and went back to the water which meant
:03:55. > :03:58.if he used that point between himself and the flag to go back as
:03:58. > :04:02.far as he wants he would be about 60, 70 yards further to the left.
:04:02. > :04:06.He choose to go back where he has a drop as near as possible to where
:04:06. > :04:11.he played the previous shot. your mind, has he transgressed
:04:11. > :04:17.rules, Peter? Jack Nicklaus said that the rules were there for
:04:17. > :04:21.honest men but there to be used, in the right way. I feel that Tiger,
:04:22. > :04:28.with his sense of the game and understanding of the rules tried to
:04:28. > :04:31.use the rules to his advantage. He thought this drop area, and it's
:04:31. > :04:35.all muddy, I will go back there. But he didn't drop the ball as near
:04:35. > :04:40.as possible. There seems to be some confusion as to what nearest
:04:40. > :04:44.possible is. It's not in my mind. You drop it as near as possible.
:04:44. > :04:52.You don't go two yards away. The rules of golf are very, very
:04:52. > :04:55.complicated. Well, I hope he doesn't disqualify, makes the game
:04:55. > :05:00.foolish. We have the most famous golfer in the world in bother, the
:05:01. > :05:05.most famous youngest golfer in a spot of bother. Neither really did
:05:05. > :05:09.anything totally wrong. Yet it may cause a hell of a furore in the
:05:09. > :05:13.world of golf at that majestic place where everything is perfect
:05:14. > :05:19.most of the time. You talk about the youngest, that's Guan Tianlang
:05:19. > :05:24.and he was you given a one-shot penalty for slow play. It's all
:05:24. > :05:27.going on and the repercussions. Let me show you two freeze frames of
:05:27. > :05:33.the original position of the ball. There we are.
:05:33. > :05:39.This is where Tiger played the next shot from. You can see the divot in
:05:39. > :05:43.front of him. It's approximately two yards back as he says. It's a
:05:43. > :05:50.contentious topic. Wayne, has he done something wrong and should he
:05:50. > :05:54.be disqualified? Well, it's not rules dejour. You are supposed to
:05:55. > :06:01.drop as near as possible. He made the comment I went back two yards
:06:01. > :06:05.so he wouldn't hit the flag again. So he knew what he was doing. There
:06:05. > :06:09.is a question of, if he hadn't said that would it have been picked up?
:06:09. > :06:12.I have spoken to other commentators from other networks that said they
:06:12. > :06:15.picked it up yesterday straightaway and made the question. They were
:06:15. > :06:21.getting calls and texts straightaway about that situation.
:06:21. > :06:28.Yeah, it's not pick and choose rules. They can't penalise the
:06:28. > :06:33.young Chinese boy for slow play and then choose not to penalise Tiger.
:06:33. > :06:38.What amuses me in this is the fact that the young lad, the 14-year-old
:06:38. > :06:42.got penalised, they were taking six hours to go around and he is the -
:06:42. > :06:45.because they're keeping their place. If you go around the M25 at 20mph
:06:45. > :06:50.everyone's slow. Everyone's in their place. We will see what you
:06:50. > :06:53.are talking about and we watch highlights shortly. Obviously, from
:06:53. > :06:57.the minute Tiger Woods is still in the field. The third round is about
:06:57. > :07:02.to get under way. Let me show you exactly what happened in the
:07:02. > :07:05.context of the entire highlights of yesterday's play.
:07:05. > :07:10.Let's review the situation before we hand to commentary for
:07:10. > :07:13.highlights of the second day from the Masters here at Augusta. This
:07:13. > :07:23.is the situation. You will see a few changes early on.
:07:23. > :07:44.
:07:44. > :07:54.Conditions have been a little the 4th and we will join Wayne
:07:54. > :08:10.
:08:10. > :08:20.Grady And Andrew Cotter and Peter Good effort. Going along not too
:08:20. > :08:21.
:08:21. > :08:31.been the toughest on the course this year. Today, playing back to a
:08:31. > :08:37.
:08:37. > :08:43.heavy stuff but enough to get you wet and annoy you. Here is a man
:08:43. > :08:48.from the past. Trevor Immelman. Goes to 5-under
:08:48. > :08:58.par. Former champion. Had all sorts of problems, injuries and bits and
:08:58. > :09:04.
:09:04. > :09:09.pieces. Nice to see him playing The pin over on the left. No green
:09:09. > :09:19.to work with. That's a great shot. Don't spin too
:09:19. > :09:28.
:09:28. > :09:36.much! He said he was going to be green. Dustin Johnson.
:09:36. > :09:43.Will it hold the line? It's not too bad. In it goes.
:09:43. > :09:53.That's a huge bonus. Goes to 44- under par. No wonder he is smiling.
:09:53. > :09:53.
:09:53. > :10:49.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 55 seconds
:10:49. > :10:53.the matchplay this year. Gets to within one.
:10:53. > :10:59.McIlroy in the pine needles. One over par.
:10:59. > :11:03.Trying to thump it back to the clearing under the fairway.
:11:03. > :11:08.Scooping it down, keeping it under the trees.
:11:08. > :11:18.Oh my goodness! Five at the first. Didn't birdie
:11:18. > :11:35.
:11:36. > :11:45.the second. Here he is at the third, Come on, get there! Fred Couples, a
:11:46. > :11:52.
:11:53. > :12:02.crowd favourite. The 11th
:12:02. > :12:06.and just hangs on the edge. He is playing very nicely.
:12:06. > :12:12.Extraordinary golfer. He is not a million miles behind the leaders, I
:12:12. > :12:21.can tell you. Shaky putter sometimes. McIlroy,
:12:21. > :12:28.this is for par. That's two over, early in the round. Did well
:12:28. > :12:33.yesterday to get himself back in red figures.
:12:33. > :12:36.The rain is coming down, although we didn't get the thunderstorms
:12:37. > :12:46.they predicted last night, thank goodness. Couples having a little
:12:47. > :12:48.
:12:48. > :12:58.tap-in. This is at the 6th. Goes to 4-under.
:12:58. > :13:08.
:13:08. > :13:18.53 and no zimmer frame, wonderful. a good club-and-a-half to two clubs
:13:18. > :13:24.
:13:24. > :13:31.Second shot. A neat pitch over the top. That
:13:31. > :13:41.might spin. It does. It tkurpbs away and -- turns away and leaves a
:13:41. > :13:52.
:13:52. > :13:57.Well, he has landed it into the bank behind. Pretty good result.
:13:57. > :14:02.Green softened overnight. Back to Immelman.
:14:02. > :14:07.All the good work slipping away. Oh, dear!
:14:07. > :14:17.Back to 2-under par. Still not a million miles off the
:14:17. > :14:21.
:14:21. > :14:31.back to red figures. How he has handled that long putter
:14:31. > :14:33.
:14:33. > :14:40.well in the last couple of years. A made a sloppy start. This is to
:14:40. > :14:50.save par and he gets it. Just the settling shot he needed.
:14:50. > :15:03.
:15:03. > :15:08.He is two over, but easily could little. Watching the activity,
:15:08. > :15:16.Kuchar. Couples, the British senior open champion won last year, still
:15:16. > :15:24.going at the age of 53. That group shaping up nicely.
:15:24. > :15:28.Second hole, Sandy Lyle, long put for a birdie. 25 years since a very
:15:28. > :15:37.youthful Sandy Lyle held a put on the last hole to win this and he's
:15:37. > :15:47.done it again! If only we'd seen it. Keep it going for the weekend. Well
:15:47. > :15:48.
:15:48. > :15:58.done, sandy! Couples at seven now. This for
:15:58. > :16:11.
:16:11. > :16:21.They've remodelled this green, flattened some bits out. Still get
:16:21. > :16:21.
:16:21. > :16:31.a bounce. Look at that! There's no luck here, you know! Two
:16:31. > :16:32.
:16:32. > :16:42.over par. Thomas Bjorn is smiling. Get a picture of that, quick.
:16:42. > :16:58.
:16:58. > :17:08.Sixth hole, McIlroy. Oh, no. It's Couples at the eighth. Brighter
:17:08. > :17:09.
:17:09. > :17:14.prospects here at the eighth. One back to three under. Up and down.
:17:15. > :17:24.Minor disruption and moving some furniture, second shot of McIlroy.
:17:25. > :17:39.
:17:39. > :17:42.Good lie for this pitch. Well done. African who is here with us in the
:17:42. > :17:48.United States. Big whack from the top of the hill. Trying to get it
:17:48. > :17:53.between the two bunkers. Good line. Well done, Sir. Couldn't go in,
:17:53. > :18:00.could it?! Oh, well, nearly as good as a good UN that one, a tremendous
:18:00. > :18:04.shot. The par putt for McIlroy now.
:18:04. > :18:09.That's in for an unlikely three. The shot that matters is the last
:18:09. > :18:16.one to play. Two over. Here is Paul Lawrie. A difficult day yesterday,
:18:16. > :18:24.but going nicely. Here he is at the 15th. Got it back to two over for
:18:24. > :18:32.the tournament. This is his third shot. Another one of those that
:18:32. > :18:37.spins stone dead. Nearly into the hole for a three. Well done, Paul.
:18:37. > :18:46.Opening tee shot for Mark Leishman, joint overnight leader, 29-year-old
:18:46. > :18:56.Australian. Nerves will be tingling. Not a lot
:18:56. > :18:58.
:18:58. > :19:02.of reaction yet. But he'll be happy with that. Good opening tee shot.
:19:02. > :19:08.Pushed his shot into the bunker from the fairway. Third shot, a
:19:08. > :19:18.difficult one, down the length of the green. Dribbled away. Pretty
:19:18. > :19:19.
:19:19. > :19:28.good. Par five, remember. He's three under. Peterson, second shot
:19:28. > :19:36.of the third and a few yards to land this in. Oh, how about that!
:19:36. > :19:40.Now lives in America, Pettersson. Here is Fernandez with his funny
:19:40. > :19:48.little grip and delicate stance. He holds a lot of putts, misses a lot
:19:48. > :19:58.mind you, but he does hold a few. Ninth hole, Dustin Johnson couldn't
:19:58. > :20:00.
:20:00. > :20:05.have put it any better. Straight up the hill. Five under. I would just
:20:05. > :20:10.like to play a game like he does once.
:20:10. > :20:20.Leishman on his way. Johnson the closest pursue ir, then four
:20:20. > :20:26.
:20:26. > :20:36.round. The chance for a birdie at the eighth up the hill. And in it
:20:36. > :20:36.
:20:36. > :20:46.goes. Steady start for Phil Mickelson.
:20:46. > :20:51.
:20:51. > :21:01.I like the purple. Lovely outfit. Four pars to start this round now.
:21:01. > :21:13.
:21:13. > :21:19.Where's this one off to? It settles strokes on the two opening holes,
:21:19. > :21:29.72 yesterday. You just have to listen over the
:21:29. > :21:35.
:21:35. > :21:45.good break. He's got four-and-a- half feet for a birdie now, no, an
:21:45. > :21:47.
:21:47. > :21:54.eagle. Mike Weir, very, very short green
:21:54. > :21:59.here. 2003 champion improves the putting stats. Gets back to one
:21:59. > :22:05.over. Dustin Johnson on ten. Five under
:22:05. > :22:13.to take the lead. And it's in. He's taking care of the tough conditions
:22:13. > :22:21.out there today, Dustin Johnson, leader at six under.
:22:21. > :22:28.Well, this is a huge one. Could be a timely eagle for McIlroy. In it
:22:28. > :22:38.goes. Eagle three for McIlroy. Suddenly, it's turned for him. Even
:22:38. > :23:09.
:23:09. > :23:16.putt is good. Lynn stays four under. tricky this, a bit deeper than it
:23:16. > :23:22.looks. Here is Justin Rose. The putting has been better this year.
:23:23. > :23:32.Very sound. It's all pretty good. Well done, Justin. Looks to be in
:23:33. > :23:44.
:23:44. > :23:51.Par Three. Playing all the way up the back left today. Strange choice.
:23:52. > :23:55.No-one does pitches and runs any more. A long way down. That looks
:23:55. > :24:05.to be on a decent line. That gap between the bunker is no more than
:24:05. > :24:06.
:24:06. > :24:13.eight yards wide. Oh, yes! Fantastic. Might be another eagle.
:24:13. > :24:18.Oosthuizen made it two here last year. In a rather weak pitch up to
:24:18. > :24:25.here on the Par Three, the putter cannot save him here. Very, very
:24:25. > :24:35.good effort, but shot gone. First drop shot of the day for David Lynn.
:24:35. > :24:43.
:24:43. > :24:53.Moves from one under to three under. Eagle three it is and the par fives
:24:53. > :25:04.
:25:05. > :25:14.amount happening for him in the front nine. Oh, it's happening now!
:25:15. > :25:16.
:25:16. > :25:26.A shot there, an eagle for son of Jay, Bill Haas. That's the way to
:25:26. > :25:29.
:25:30. > :25:39.do it. Dustin Johnson. Three to the green. Eagle yesterday. Might be a
:25:40. > :25:40.
:25:40. > :26:43.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 55 seconds
:26:43. > :26:49.the trees today. It's Tiger Woods. seven under, cruising along.
:26:49. > :26:53.Suddenly, Dustin Johnson is two in front. Marc Leishman slipping back
:26:53. > :27:03.with a bogey on the fourth and Couples, the 53-year-old in that
:27:03. > :27:14.
:27:14. > :27:24.Quick as lightning down here. Just watch it, it keeps trickling on. Go
:27:24. > :27:37.
:27:37. > :27:42.14th. A newly reconstructed green. Exactly the same as it used to be.
:27:42. > :27:52.Balls used to do that as well, run all the way down. Struggling to
:27:52. > :28:03.
:28:03. > :28:13.birdies in a row. 13, 14 and 15. 2009 champ, 14th start here.
:28:13. > :28:17.What's going on here? Having a word. I hope he's not getting a penalty.
:28:17. > :28:21.The headmaster telling the schoolboy off. We are breaking into
:28:21. > :28:25.this highlights package from day two's play to bring you the news
:28:25. > :28:29.live here at Augusta that Tiger Woods has not been disqualified
:28:29. > :28:33.from the Masters. There has been a review of the incident which you
:28:33. > :28:39.are shortly to see once again on that highlights package at the 15th.
:28:39. > :28:44.He has though received a two-shot penalty and will start day three at
:28:44. > :28:48.one under par. That's where he'll start. He'll Tee off in a little
:28:48. > :28:56.while. Back to the highlights. That is the latest from Augusta, Tiger
:28:56. > :29:06.Woods remains in the field. Johnson to save par on the 14th
:29:06. > :29:29.
:29:29. > :29:38.then. First wrong step he's taken After that drop shot on 14 he is
:29:38. > :29:46.not gobbling up the par 5s today. This is his third. In there with
:29:46. > :29:56.the turtles. Trickier than it looks off this
:29:56. > :30:01.
:30:01. > :30:09.Tianlang. Hopefully this is his last shot of the day. It is. Will
:30:09. > :30:12.it be enough? What do you think, Andrew? It's going to be close. The
:30:12. > :30:22.position will move out in the afternoon. I think he might still
:30:22. > :30:37.
:30:37. > :30:44.Jim Furyk. This is the approach to the 8th and that is magic.
:30:44. > :30:51.An ideal spot. Dustin Johnson for a 6, after
:30:51. > :31:01.visiting the water, that's a big fat 7 for Dustin Johnson. Bogey,
:31:01. > :31:39.
:31:39. > :31:43.double-bogey. Augusta can bite you one of them back. HAZEL IRVINE:
:31:43. > :31:49.Let's show you what's been happening to this youngster, Guan
:31:49. > :31:53.Tianlang. This is the European Tour chief rules official. He is warning
:31:53. > :31:59.Guan Tianlang at least two or three times in the round that slow play
:32:00. > :32:04.may cost him a penalty stroke. Ultimately at the 17th that is the
:32:04. > :32:08.action, the course of action that he took with the youngster, the 14-
:32:08. > :32:15.year-old. He was indeed given a penalty stroke at the 17th. And
:32:15. > :32:19.finishing the day with a round of 75. Putting him on 4 over par.
:32:19. > :32:28.Let's get his thoughts over the controversy and his performance so
:32:28. > :32:38.Do you think the decision was fair or unfair? Little bit on 17th green,
:32:38. > :32:39.
:32:39. > :32:42.but I tried to calm myself down and save the par on the 18th. Has the
:32:42. > :32:50.penalty stroke clouded your experience of Augusta in any way?
:32:50. > :32:55.No, I think I had a wonderful week so far. Really enjoy it and there
:32:55. > :33:02.is lot of great players and it's a great week anyway. If you were to
:33:02. > :33:10.miss a cut by one stroke how would you feel? I would feel still all
:33:10. > :33:14.right, but I try my best these couple of days, so I can make the
:33:14. > :33:24.cut I am really happy, but still a great week for me. It has been
:33:24. > :34:04.
:34:04. > :34:14.Beautifully done. Getting better Could be very good if it decides to

:41:55. > :42:00.what did you make of today? It was much better, didn't get a great

:42:10. > :42:12.
:42:12. > :42:18.I held some nice putts, which was missing yesterday. That was a big

:44:56. > :44:57.
:44:57. > :45:07.Thank you. He's stirred down a few eagle puts
:45:07. > :45:11.
:45:11. > :45:21.in his time at Augusta. It's in the hole! Stayed out. He
:45:21. > :46:01.
:46:01. > :46:11.continues sweeping up the birdies. Handles this well. Hasn't he just!
:46:11. > :46:14.
:46:15. > :46:24.Four over par. Suddenly it goes to two over par. -- Garrigus. What a
:46:25. > :46:35.
:46:35. > :46:41.Played close to the water. A wonderful iron shot. One of the
:46:41. > :46:51.betters strikers. Senden's never made the cut at Augusta, but he's
:46:51. > :46:53.
:46:53. > :47:03.well on his way this week. Fowler on eight. Two over three.
:47:03. > :47:16.
:47:16. > :47:24.Has he? Has he? Yes! Back to three so easy with the shadows on the
:47:24. > :47:34.green. Choi's hit it! Birdies of ten and 12, moving to three under
:47:34. > :47:36.
:47:36. > :47:41.par. Furyk, third shot. At 15. This is where we saw Dustin Johnson
:47:41. > :47:45.chuck it into the water and the same fate for Jim Furyk. Just too
:47:45. > :47:54.far down there, not a long enough shot.
:47:54. > :48:04.Right at this moment, you feel really stupid.
:48:04. > :48:05.
:48:05. > :48:15.11th. John Senden for a birdie. Oh, just slow enough to creep in at the
:48:15. > :48:22.
:48:22. > :48:32.side door. Four under. Birdies This is not any easier than the
:48:32. > :48:44.
:48:44. > :48:48.previous one. Furyk currently only one shot back.
:48:48. > :48:57.David Lynn, shot 68 yesterday. First round at Augusta for a birdie
:48:57. > :49:05.for a round of 73. Yes, just nicks it in. Not a bad
:49:05. > :49:15.day. Much tougher day today. Three under par and three behind.
:49:15. > :49:17.
:49:17. > :49:27.Furk going with the putter. -- Furyk. One lapse of concentration,
:49:27. > :49:41.
:49:41. > :49:51.perhaps a bit nervey and suddenly, Leishman. Up the bank it goes. It
:49:51. > :50:02.
:50:02. > :50:08.was always going to be tough. Terrific round. 71 for Couples and
:50:08. > :50:16.Woods is looking ominous, currently at five under.
:50:16. > :50:19.Leishman to retain the lead. This for par at 14.
:50:20. > :50:28.This is where it all started to unravel for Dustin Johnson earlier
:50:28. > :50:31.in the day. He was seven under in the leader coming to the 14th.
:50:32. > :50:40.Pretty good effort though from Leishman. He's handled himself
:50:40. > :50:50.extremely well. So we have a tie for the lead. Five under par. Tiger
:50:50. > :50:52.
:50:52. > :51:02.Woods, Fred Couples and Marc Leishman.
:51:02. > :51:14.
:51:14. > :51:19.Choi. A little tap in and he should recently with his rib injury. Three
:51:19. > :51:28.under par in the Masters. He loves this place!
:51:28. > :51:38.Tidy looking as well. Sneds!
:51:38. > :51:46.
:51:46. > :51:56.Jason Day for a birdie at the tenth. Yes. Top of the leaderboard. KJ
:51:56. > :51:59.
:51:59. > :52:09.Choi 14th. This for his par. He looked a little bit low.
:52:09. > :52:22.
:52:22. > :52:32.it. A bit of respite there. After the previous hole, the bogey. Oh,
:52:32. > :52:43.
:52:43. > :52:53.dear, dear, dear. Within ten shots That is a bonus, right back into
:52:53. > :52:54.
:52:54. > :53:01.the win. Leishman now, second shot at the 16th. And that is a
:53:01. > :53:05.wonderful shot. Hoping for the best shot. Thought
:53:05. > :53:15.he might have played more bold. He has a chance to escape with the par.
:53:15. > :53:24.
:53:24. > :53:34.Day's found that the trees at Number 11 are there. What a shot.
:53:34. > :53:34.
:53:34. > :53:42.What a shot! Jim Furyk. That could be perfect.
:53:42. > :53:52.Go on. Yes, yes, yes. Yes. It gathers pace. Keep going, keep
:53:52. > :54:13.
:54:13. > :54:23.going. Absolutely delightful. but is it handsome? Oh! Nearly
:54:23. > :54:29.straight in, not quite far enough up the bank. Hugging the pin.
:54:29. > :54:36.Leishman at the 16th. This for a par just a little bit of movement
:54:36. > :54:46.required. Oh, it stayed. You lucky boy. I don't know how that happened.
:54:46. > :55:04.
:55:04. > :55:10.That was quite extraordinary. very good shots. He rolled her in.
:55:10. > :55:20.Not too many starts like that in the history of this event.
:55:20. > :55:22.
:55:22. > :55:29.Donald just four strokes behind the lead now. Oh...
:55:29. > :55:39.His short game hasn't been quite as sharp as they have been. Take your
:55:39. > :55:41.
:55:41. > :55:51.time. The stroke going for Donald at the 12th. The 18, Lee Westwood
:55:51. > :56:01.
:56:01. > :56:11.early on. The fifth. A couple of birdies. Nice, solid round without
:56:11. > :56:13.
:56:13. > :56:20.anything spectacular happening. Jim Furyk. Can he follow? Yes, he does.
:56:20. > :56:26.Nice round from Jim, apart from the one hole of the 15th. Four way tie
:56:26. > :56:31.for the leads in the Masters. Two of these gentlemen hail from
:56:31. > :56:34.Australia. Leishman and Day making their presence felt. Westwood with
:56:35. > :56:43.that wonderful birdie at the last has made his presence felt too in
:56:43. > :56:48.the large group at three under. Schwartzle, a former champion for
:56:48. > :56:58.South Africa. Dustin Johnson, a horrible finish for him when he had
:56:58. > :57:04.
:57:04. > :57:10.required. This could come far enough up. Just
:57:10. > :57:20.needs to stop there. Now it will go. This will go. This could be very
:57:20. > :57:22.
:57:22. > :57:32.close. Urging it down, the crowd. That'll do very nicely. Near enough
:57:32. > :57:48.
:57:48. > :57:58.a kick-in for a birdie. No wonder flag there. To his left it might be
:57:58. > :57:59.
:57:59. > :58:09.moving. Oh, it's short. And gone. Oh, no sooner had he moved into a
:58:09. > :58:26.
:58:26. > :58:36.share of the lead then he flew too wants to point it left. That's a
:58:36. > :58:58.
:58:58. > :59:03.140. 134 holes. Absolutely lovely J Justin Rose. What a shot that was,
:59:03. > :59:06.using the contours of the 18th green. In she goes. Westwood did
:59:07. > :59:16.finishing with the birdie, finishing on three under par and
:59:17. > :59:20.
:59:20. > :59:24.just two off the lead as it stands. Well placed to go into the weekend.
:59:24. > :59:30.Day on the 12th. Not gone back to the troping zone. He's dropped it
:59:30. > :59:40.close to the water as he's allowed to do there -- dropping zone.
:59:40. > :00:15.
:00:15. > :00:25.first round. 73 today. That's not too bad in these conditions and the
:00:25. > :00:33.
:00:33. > :00:43.afternoon starters, after holding the lead at the Masters, co-leader.
:00:43. > :00:57.
:00:57. > :01:02.It's not too bad. Putting uphill out from that. It needs to go. It's
:01:02. > :01:12.going to finish way left. That's going to go to the front edge of
:01:12. > :01:41.
:01:41. > :01:51.It settles on the far edge of the green.
:01:51. > :02:02.
:02:02. > :02:09.Well, did that hit right on the pin and spin?
:02:09. > :02:17.When it's not your day, it's not your day.
:02:17. > :02:26.An amazing shot. It looked to be right - hit the pin absolutely
:02:26. > :02:33.flush and into the water. Awful luck.
:02:33. > :02:37.He has to be careful here, Peter. The 5th shot. Yes, if this isn't
:02:37. > :02:45.sensible and smoothly done, he could run up a few here. He is
:02:45. > :02:55.going to drop a couple anyway, unless he performs some miracle.
:02:55. > :03:05.
:03:05. > :03:15.applause that greets him is for his move into a tie for the lead.
:03:15. > :03:30.
:03:31. > :03:40.The crowd gave him a standing ovation. He gives a tip of the hat.
:03:41. > :03:44.
:03:44. > :03:54.He is in his own world. John Senden, from Brisbane. Par
:03:54. > :03:58.
:03:58. > :04:04.putt. A 4-under, back to 3-under.
:04:04. > :04:09.Schwartzel has been in trouble. This could be good. Feed down and
:04:09. > :04:19.to the right, could be very, very good indeed.
:04:19. > :04:27.
:04:27. > :04:36.He nearly birdied it. He should they've taken to get here.
:04:36. > :04:40.7-iron for Jason Day. It's the right club. Beautiful shot
:04:40. > :04:50.from Jason Day. Another good birdie opportunity. Another chance to take
:04:50. > :05:27.
:05:27. > :05:37.water. Fowler in the drink. Costly, to go way to the left and just
:05:37. > :05:55.
:05:55. > :06:03.right to the edge of the slope and Jason Day, once more a putt to take
:06:03. > :06:13.the lead on his own. He has it! Judged it beautifully. Jason Day,
:06:13. > :06:13.
:06:13. > :06:23.out in front. One more birdie and he will - he leads the Masters on
:06:23. > :06:29.
:06:29. > :06:39.of affairs to an end. That's a treuble-bogey -- triple-bogey. A
:06:39. > :06:50.
:06:50. > :06:59.long way back at the weekend for keep him at 4-under par.
:06:59. > :07:04.The putter fails him at the last. He will be a very cross Tiger.
:07:04. > :07:14.Hitting the pin, going into the water. A slip at the last. He is
:07:14. > :07:17.
:07:17. > :07:25.three shots back at the end of his I played well today. 15 and I
:07:25. > :07:30.flagged it on 18 and I hit the first putt too hard. But my score
:07:30. > :07:40.doesn't quite indicate how well I played today. HAZEL IRVINE: Jason
:07:40. > :07:52.
:07:53. > :08:02.the halfway point in the Masters with a birdie. How pleasing was
:08:02. > :08:06.that? It was nice. Obviously, I had six birdies today and going with
:08:06. > :08:12.yesterday's round had six, as well. If I can get out there and just
:08:12. > :08:16.play some smart golf and try and stay patient and really just focus
:08:17. > :08:21.on myself, hopefully we can play well tomorrow.
:08:21. > :08:26.HAZEL IRVINE: Round two was definitely Jason Day's day. He is
:08:26. > :08:36.one shot ahead as we come to round three.
:08:36. > :08:42.The likes of the British challengers, Rose and Westwood and
:08:42. > :08:48.Lynne all within a few shots. Tiger Woods has been docked a couple of
:08:49. > :08:54.shots. To give you an idea of who is with
:08:54. > :08:59.us for the weekend, Ernie Els and so too Sandy Lyle, 25 years after
:08:59. > :09:04.winning here at the Masters. Great to see him here. Phil Mickelson
:09:04. > :09:08.said he was really going to attack the course yesterday. It did not
:09:08. > :09:13.come off, that strategy. Guan Tianlang makes the cut. The young
:09:13. > :09:20.amateur, the 14-year-old, despite receiving that penalty for slow
:09:20. > :09:23.play. Bubba Watson, he is the first man out on the course this morning.
:09:23. > :09:26.I mentioned Tiger Woods and if you have been watching from the start
:09:26. > :09:30.of this programme you will realise that at one point it looked as
:09:30. > :09:37.though he might be disqualified. He's not been disqualified. He has
:09:37. > :09:43.been given a two-shot penalty. It's for this incident at the 15th
:09:43. > :09:48.yesterday in the second round. This was the tpheurl approach -- initial
:09:48. > :09:52.approach. It hits the pin and spins back. Very unfortunate. He assessed
:09:52. > :09:58.his options and did not elect to play from the drop zone. Afterwards
:09:58. > :10:03.he told us that he had instead decided to miss out playing from
:10:03. > :10:10.there and play from a couple of yards back from his original divot.
:10:10. > :10:15.This was a remarkable recovery, I am sure having just watched the
:10:15. > :10:24.footage there. At that point it looked like all was well. This was
:10:24. > :10:30.the original divot on the right. He moved it back. Consequently, he is
:10:30. > :10:33.deemed retrospectively to have made a mistake. This is the ruling. This
:10:33. > :10:38.is it: It transpired afterwards they have
:10:38. > :10:42.given him a two-shot penalty. This is because in the last two years
:10:42. > :10:47.the United States Golf Association has deemed that with the advent of
:10:47. > :10:57.television evidence they have the right to retrospective inflict a
:10:57. > :11:06.
:11:06. > :11:10.at 1-under par. It's all been happening this morning! Peter and
:11:10. > :11:13.Wayne are with me. We discussed was he in the right or wrong? It's now
:11:13. > :11:20.universally accepted he was in the wrong, what do you make of the
:11:20. > :11:23.penalty that's been imposed? Rubbish. It's not a trial by video
:11:23. > :11:28.situation. He came in to a press conference after and said, I
:11:28. > :11:32.intentionally dropped the ball two yards further back. Then it was
:11:32. > :11:36.only confirmed by video later on. He had actually admitted to doing
:11:36. > :11:42.that in his post-round press conference. The ruling is rubbish,
:11:42. > :11:46.I think. You think he should have been disqualified? Absolutely.
:11:46. > :11:49.Tiger was trying to use the rules and the rules are there to be used
:11:49. > :11:54.in the nicest possible way. They're there for honest and sensible
:11:54. > :11:58.people. He tried to sort of of tweak it to get an advantage. I
:11:58. > :12:07.think he is extremely lucky to still be here, I agree with what
:12:07. > :12:13.Wayne says, but big people in sport get away with - I am old enough to
:12:13. > :12:17.remember - playing tennis behaving badly and they got away because
:12:18. > :12:22.they were big names and put bums on seats. He is going to have
:12:22. > :12:26.everybody watching today. Our live coverage starts at 7.30pm. The
:12:26. > :12:30.other talking point from yesterday was the young amateur, Guan
:12:30. > :12:36.Tianlang. 14 years old and a marvellous achievement having
:12:36. > :12:41.become the youngest ever to qualify for the weekend here. But this was
:12:41. > :12:46.him being told he was going to be given the first ever penalty shot
:12:46. > :12:51.for slow play ever inflicted at the Masters. Graeme McDowell says what
:12:51. > :12:56.sort of message are we trying to send out, given a 14-year-old shot
:12:56. > :13:01.penalty? It was a six-hour round for everybody, why single him out?
:13:01. > :13:06.Reaction to that, because he was warned several times before. Yeah,
:13:06. > :13:10.this is a crazy situation, as Peter and I were talking about before.
:13:10. > :13:16.How can you single anyone out? That's why the whole slow play rule
:13:16. > :13:20.situation needs to be modified. I have never been a fan of timing.
:13:20. > :13:24.The officials have to make the players get around quicker. And
:13:24. > :13:27.really enforce things. He is here for the weekend, Peter. That's a
:13:27. > :13:30.good thing. The problem with the ruling is you have to keep in
:13:30. > :13:37.position. If they're going slow and you are going slow, you are not out
:13:37. > :13:42.of position. They don't want to be putting time on the young fella.
:13:42. > :13:45.Everybody is slow. So everybody should be penalised. When Tiger
:13:45. > :13:49.Woods was asked, he said rules are rules. Now he is on the receiving
:13:49. > :13:53.end of it. All right, now Bubba Watson was first out this morning.
:13:53. > :13:57.He is out with a marker this morning. Birdie one, two, and now
