Koepka vs. Rahm at The Masters


A second-nine 38 on Sunday morning cut Brooks Koepka's four-shot lead over Jon Rahm to two heading to the final round of the Masters at Augusta National.

Koepka bogeyed the 12th and three-putted the 17th for a second blemish on his closing stretch, finishing his third round with a 1-over 73. Rahm made birdies on No. 7 and No. 8 to begin play for the day, but he also struggled on the closing stretch.

The lack of scoring by the lead group opened the door for a charge from Viktor Hovland, as the Norwegian made five birdies in a row on the second nine to sit alone in third just three shots off the pace.
