Patrick Reed doesn’t seem too keen on surrendering his lead on Saturday at the Masters. His two eagles in a three-hole stretch on the back nine helped the leader to 14-under, good for a four-shot advantage.

Reed eagled the par-5 13th hole, then on 15 chipped in for another eagle, moving him to 6-under for the day. A bogey on 16 gave a shot back

He entered Saturday with leading at 9-under.

This is the fifth Masters for Reed, and in his first 14 rounds and 264 holes he had one eagle in total. In just those three holes in the third round he surpassed that. Reed’s best finish at Augusta is tied for 22nd in 2015. He seems poised to beat that, regardless of what happens Sunday.
