Bernhard Langer was one stroke away from history at the Masters Friday.

Langer, 67, needed to make par on the 18th hole at Augusta National to remain at 2-over, remain below the projected cut line and become the oldest player to make the cut in Masters history. 

Langer hit the fairway on the par-4 18th, but his approach shot fell off the side of the green and rolled into a seating area.
