Rory McIlroy's lead in the 90th Masters was reduced to two shots after he took a record six-shot lead through the first two rounds. However, it took only 28 minutes from the start of the third round for McIlory's lead to be reduced to a mere two. His 1-over-par 73 allowed several players to recover and gain significant ground. Cam Young, currently tied for the lead, has a strong chance to win his first major. Other notable developments include a strong performance from world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, who posted an early 65, and Shane Lowry, who is just two shots behind, who also had a strong shot to win.
