It’s 1:00 PM in Augusta, and although the likes of Lee Westwood, Ian Poulter, Phil Mickelson, and noted golfing enthusiast Tiger Woods haven’t hit the course yet, there are still a couple of developments to note.
Masters Round 3 Update: Slocum Making Early Charge
Heath Slocum, who entered Round 3 back in the pack, has birdied the second, third, and fourth holes to sit at 3-under entering the sixth hole. He’s still a far cry from the tournament lead, but at this point in the day he’s certainly worth keeping track of. Slocum is no relation to Heathcliff Slocumb, the pitcher who was infamously traded for Jason Varitek and Derek Lowe. Bad trade. Bad trade!
Matteo Manassero, the youngest player ever to make the Masters cut, is 2-under for the day through ten holes.
Retief Goosen has descended further into irrelevance, having shot 4-over through five holes. He suffered an awful triple bogey on the first hole.
