The only blemish on the card for Rose, who with a win here would become the oldest first-time Masters champion since a 41-year-old Mark O’Meara won in 1998, came at the 18th where he made bogey after his tee shot missed the fairway. World number one Scheffler’s round included a huge birdie putt from 62 feet at the par-three fourth and a pair of up-and-down par saves after chipping out of greenside bunkers at both the seventh and 17th holes. “Anytime you can keep a card clean out here it’s a really good thing... I struggled for what felt like two pars today,” said Scheffler. “I had to make two really good up-and-downs.
