Masters Tournament: Final Round Pairings and Tee Times
The groupings and start times for the final round of the 90th Masters tournament at Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Georgia, have been announced. Rory McIlroy's six-shot lead evaporated as he struggled to a 73 in the third round, dropping him to 11 under and tied with Cameron Young heading into the final day. McIlroy will once again be paired with Young, just as in the first two rounds. A victory would put McIlroy in the company of Jack Nicklaus, Sir Nick Faldo, and Tiger Woods as a back-to-back Masters champion. Sam Burns will be partnered with Shane Lowry in the second-to-last group, while former world No. 1s Jason Day and Justin Rose are tied for fifth as they pursue a long-awaited second major win. World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler is within four shots of the lead and will be paired with China's Haotong Li.
