Golf: the Masters

on BBC Two England

It's the penultimate day's play at this year's first Major, taking place at the spectacular Augusta National course in Georgia USA.

Financial considerations will be of secondary importance to those professionals seeking to join the tournament's youngest winner, Tiger Woods, and its oldest Jack Nicklaus, as members of the elite band of players entitled to wear the coveted Green Jacket presented to the champion.

When play finished at this stage last year Phil Mickelson, who had never won a Major, was tied for the lead with Chris DiMarco, also Majorless. DiMarco shot a four-under-par 68, and Mickelson carded 69 to bring them to a six-under 210 for 54 holes. They were being chased by Masters rookie Paul Casey of England, two-time Masters champion Bernhard Langer, three-time Major champion Ernie Els and KJ Choi.

Presented by Steve Ryder, with commentary by Peter Alliss, Ken Brown and Sam Torrance.
