Golf: the Masters

on BBC Two England

Steve Rider presents third-round coverage of the 64th Masters tournament from the Augusta National Course in Georgia, as the players who have survived the halfway cut jockey for position ahead of tomorrow's final round.

The 1999 Masters was one of the most open tournaments in years. Eleven players were within four shots of the lead after 54 holes. Steve Pate emerged from the pack with a stunning round of 65, which included a Masters record of seven birdies in a row. The eventual winner Jose Maria Olazabal looked under pressure after scoring 38 on the first nine holes, but he battled strongly on the inward nine to stay one shot ahead of the field.
Today's highlights are played back in tomorrow's Sunday Grandstand at 1.35pm. Commentary comes from Peter Alliss, Alex Hay and Ken Brown, with reports from Dougie Donnelly.
