    "Four-shot leader Jordan Spieth on the putting green - white trousers, dark blue polo shirt, matching cap. Rolling in a bucketload of four-foot putts from around the clockface, looking as emotional as a Buddhist monk. Can he hold that poise when the pips are squeaking and the pack chasing down the back nine?"

    The winner today will earn $1.8m, that is about £1.2m. What could Jordan Spieth, Phil Mickelson, Justin Rose or A N Other do with that bounty? Well, it's enough to buy you five terraced houses (at current prices) in Cheltenham or, alternatively, you could visit the Tower of London around 50,000 times.

    Second place earns you roughly £680,000, third nets £415,000, which means fewer trips to the Tower of London but still enough to set up home in Cheltenham.

  4. Learn technique on the rangepublished at 17:55 British Summer Time 12 April 2015

    Henrik Stenson is competing in his 10th Masters and has never finished higher than 14th. At level par, he needs rattle off the birdies to improve on that, but his work ethic is there for all to see as he crushes balls on the range. He's currently working on his driver.

    You can watch the action on the range by clicking on the coverage tab at the top of this page and if you want further reason to watch, Bubba Watson has just showed up.

    What a wonderful start it's been for Keegan Bradley. The 28-year-old has birdied five of the opening eight holes - a bogey on the first his only blemish. Plenty of birdies (three) for veteran Mark O'Meara too and he'd be enjoying a better score than one under had he not double bogeyed the par-four third.

    "Mickelson in the practice area, rocking the Johnny Cash vibe once again with his all-black outfit. No more popular man around Augusta than the grinning three-time champion, who manages to combine being a golfer of rare ability with the image of an American Everyman - boyish still at 44, slightly fuller of figure than most professional sportsmen and, in a country that appreciates it more than any other, a magnificent tipper. Tales abound of waitresses, doormen and car-valets being handed $100 bills. Often more than one."

  9. Spieth a Lefty in disguise?published at 17:41 British Summer Time 12 April 2015

    There's probably a bounce in Phil Mickelson step because he knows Lefties have won three of the last five Masters titles. But hang on, hang on, hang on because a lesser-known fact has filtered through live text HQ, informing us that right-hander Jordan Spieth plays baseball and shoots hoops left-handed. Who knows what to make of that. Something? Nothing?

  10. Phil the thrill primed for "fun" daypublished at 17:38 British Summer Time 12 April 2015

    Some interesting insight from Masters on the Range, highlighting what mood Phil Mickelson (11 under par, five shots behind leader Jordan Spieth), is in: "This is as well as Butch Harman has seen Phil Mickelson drive the ball and we all know if he drives it well today it could be fun for him today. In fact, he just walked on to the range and said 'It's going to be fun today'."

    Mickelson has so far hit 32/42 fairways for an impressive 76% driving accuracy, way above the field average of 67%. Kevin Streelman has the most with 37/42 while Spieth has hit 30/42.

  11. It's not over until the fat lady singspublished at 17:35 British Summer Time 12 April 2015

    Gary Player didn't mention warbling fat ladies, but he did say this tournament ain't over until it's over, though he did use better grammar.

    "It is very difficult to keep a lead," he told BBC Radio 5 live's Sportsweek. "In 1978, I was seven shots behind Watson and came back to win. In 1964 I was nine shots behind Palmer playing the third hole and on the 11th tee I was two shots ahead. You can play a really good round and shoot 75. That is why never it is never over before the last putt is holed."

  12. Spieth some player - Playerpublished at 17:33 British Summer Time 12 April 2015

    Who will win the Masters? Former Masters champion Gary Player told BBC Radio 5 live's Sportsweek that the best putter on the final day will win the tournament.

    The good news for Jordan Spieth is that the South African believes the 21-year-old is the most consistent player in the world and the best putter on the planet.

    "Spieth doesn't have the swing of a McIlroy but he is the best putter in the world," said the 79-year-old. "Nobody knows what is inside a man, whether he is prepared to make the sacrifices, but if he has the necessary ingredients and makes a little improvement on his back swing he will be a super star. You need to win six majors to be a superstar and there have only been 13 in golf."

  14. Lefty dreaming of a winning Sundaypublished at 17:26 British Summer Time 12 April 2015

    Phil Mickelson

    Time to sound the warning klaxon for the first mention of the day for Phil Mickelson. It probably won't be the last if he maintains yesterday's momentum.

    The three-time champion led the pursuit for much of the penultimate day and had the partisan crowds roaring with four birdies on the front nine.

    Can he produce a blistering final round? "You dream of playing late in the afternoon at Augusta and having an opportunity to win," said the 44-year-old. "If I can play a good front nine, and that is my goal, I can hopefully be in contention on the back nine."

    Anna P: Justin Rose, the Masters Trophy lies over the ocean, the Green Jacket lies over the sea, bring them back to Europe!

    James Bamford: Hoping for a Rose challenge tonight, always look out for his scores after being at Birkdale in 1998, let's see some drama!

    Mark O'Brien: Whatever happens this is a great Masters!!! Return of the Tiger! Big names on the charge!! I'm going for Speith, Phil Mickelson and Rose.

    Alex Taylor Noble: It's set up for an amazing final day! Spieth, Rose or even Mickleson? Amazing final day pairing of McIlroy and Woods!

  16. Moore wants morepublished at 17:20 British Summer Time 12 April 2015

    American Ryan Moore, who is on three under, is on the range and is asked what his goals are today: "Just play a great round. It's always hard to finish and shoot good rounds so just gain confidence by doing a good job and going up the leaderboard."

    The American says he is eyeing a top 12 finish and feels the greens are finally drying out. That will make putting tricky.

  17. Latest scorespublished at 17:18 British Summer Time 12 April 2015

    There are plenty of birdies to be had on Augusta's greens early on, which hopefully bodes well for the final groupings. Three birdies for Jimmy Walker takes the American to three under through seven (level for the tournament), Steve Stricker is at it again - brides on the sixth and seventh to skip to three under (level overall). Keegan Bradley is the best of the rest - two under for the day after birdies on the second, third and fourth following a birdie on the first.

  19. McIlroy & Woods together againpublished at 17:07 British Summer Time 12 April 2015

    Speaking of Rory McIlroy, the Northern Irishman will play alongside former world number one Tiger Woods today, giving their sponsors enough footage for a four-hour advert. The pair will tee of at 19:30 BST.

    Both played well on Saturday, but are still 10 shots behind Jordan Spieth - although Woods still holds some hope of an unlikely fight back.

    "You just never know," said Woods. "That's the thing about this golf course. We don't know what the committee is going to do. If they're going to give us some accessible, easy eagle pins or tuck them and make this golf course difficult."
