Lee Westwood was one of the longer shots in the lead pack at the 2012 edition of The Masters entering Sunday’s final round, but with just a handful of holes on the back nine to play, Westwood is well within striking distance.
Lee Westwood, Matt Kuchar Climbing 2012 Masters Leaderboard, Louis Oosthuizen Still Leading
Westwood made birdie on No. 15 -- a beautiful second shot gave him a medium-range eagle putt, but Westwood curled it just around the hole -- to move to 7-under, one shot behind Louis Oosthuizen. Matt Kuchar joined Westwood at 7-under with a birdie on No. 13, and both have momentum that few others have.
For example: Phil Mickelson has made three pars on his back nine so far, and needs red numbers to make up for a triple bogey on the front nine that has left him at 6-under, but he has dominated the upcoming No. 13 in his time at Augusta National. Peter Hanson, the leader entering Sunday, is now 6-under and two shots behind Oosthuizen after a bogey on No. 12.
