The Masters 2025: day three updates from Augusta – live

Before things get wild, let’s take this opportunity to tip the cap to young Nick Dunlap. The 21-year-old shot 90 on Thursday, and many a player would have responded by playing the illness or injury card to minimise embarrassment before withdrawing quietly. But Dunlap took his frustration out on a bucket of range balls, then came back yesterday to post a one-under round of 71. He still missed the cut in last place, of course, but if they were handing out Green Jackets for moxie, Dunlap would surely be at the head of the queue. The differential between his first two rounds is the second-biggest in Masters history, the biggest still Craig Wood’s 88-67 effort in 1936. Wood went on to win the Masters five years later, so if you’re a fan of outlandish omens, pile your cash on Dunlap winning this Tournament in 2030.
