AUGUSTA, Ga. — Rory McIlroy stood over his ball in the 18th fairway at Augusta National, reeling. Over the course of the previous 90 minutes, he’d bungled away a 5-shot lead in the final round of the Masters, well on his way to the biggest choke job of his career — and maybe any in the 89-year history of the tournament.

AUGUSTA, Ga. — The green jacket is now Rory McIlroy's to win ... or lose. In the span of two days, McIlroy has gone from favorite (entering the tournament) to heartbreak (after seemingly ejecting himself from contention with a pair of back-nine double bogeys in Round 1) to back in the hunt (after a second round 66) to overwhelming favorite (thanks to a second straight 66).

Augusta, Ga. — Let's start with this: Nick Dunlap is a good golfer. A very good golfer. Before turning 21, he already has two wins on the PGA Tour. In the history of the sport, only eight players have done that — and only two others in the modern era: Tiger Woods and Tom Kim. Coming into this week's Masters — still eight months shy of his 22nd birthday — he's ranked 42nd in the world.

AUGUSTA, Ga. — For some, Justin Rose will forever be the 17-year-old kid who nearly won The Open Championship way back in 1998. Boyish then and, 27 years later, boyish even now, Rose is still knocking on the door at major championships. He opened Thursday’s Round 1 at the Masters by going birdie-birdie-birdie, leapfrogging everyone on the leaderboard — including world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler. Five more birdies later, he’d carded a stellar 7-under 65 to hold a 3-stroke lead after 18 holes.

The last couple years have provided quite the turnaround in the golf career/Q score of Keegan Bradley. It started two years ago when he was controversially left off the 2023 Ryder Cup team, famously chronicled on the Netflix docuseries "Full Swing," where cameras were present when Bradley received the bad news via a phone call from then U.S. captain Zach Johnson. Despite the snub, Bradley cheered the team on from his couch, a redeeming scene also captured by the Netflix cameras.
