  1. Soren seems to be the hardest word

    Kjeldsen -1

    At least until you get to his surname. Doozie of a birdie on the fifth, all of 35 yards, and that moves him into a share of third.

  2. How about that?

    This escape from the trees on the first put a smile on Rory McIlroy's face but he hasn't had much to be happy about so far in his round.

  3. Spieth (-4 after 2)

    Paul Azinger
    1993 PGA Championship winner on BBC TV

    "Some player this kid - only 22 years old and two majors already. All his mistakes seem like a learning experience. An amazing young man."

  4. Two birdies for final pair

    Spieth (-4 after 2), Kaufman (-3 after 2)

    Zach Johnson (2007), Charl Schwartzel (2011), Bubba Watson (2012) and Adam Scott (2013) are the exceptions.

  5. Spieth birdies the second

    Spieth -4

    60-odd feet from the hole, third shot on the second - mmm, nicely judged sir, cosied up to within four feet, Smylie's birdied that himself, moves to three under and a share of the lead. For about 20 seconds, until Spieth pops in his own.

  6. Absurd

    Casey (+2 after nine)

    Do you think you could putt on these Augusta greens? They offer some examination alright. Take a look at where Paul Casey just aimed on the ninth. We've circled the hole for you, that's how ridiculous it is. 

    Casey two-putted. Respect.

    Paul Casey.

    Mark Simmerson: Glad Langer and Spieth aren't in the last group together, otherwise #TheMasters wouldn't finish before #TheOpen started!

  8. Jay Townsend
    Former American professional golfer on BBC Radio 5 live sports extra

    "I am very surprised by the scoring because Hole One is downwind. I expected to see some early fireworks but the players have just dropped back. 

    "I thought by the time Spieth teed-off someone might have caught him."

  9. Watch Lowry's hole in one

    Here it is... the shot of the week in all its glory from Ireland's Shane Lowry.

  10. Horschel fights back

    +4 after eight

    Billy Horschel.

    Remember that horror for Billy Horschel in Saturday's third round, when his ball was blown off the 15th green, costing him two shots? The sweetest of eagles on the par five eighth has clawed them back - straight in the cup on the bounce from 88 yards.

  12. Matsuyma -1

    Birdie on the par five second to balance up the bogey on one, as you were gentlemen.

  13. McIlroy +3

    Funny old day out there so far, a course so punitive on the putting surfaces that it's like watching men without shoes trying to scale a mountain. McIlroy's toes getting frostbite, he's in the sand on the 5th...

  14. Alistair Bruce-Ball
    BBC Radio 5 live sports commentator at Augusta National

    "Lowry hit the perfect tee-shot. Boom, in it went and the whole place went nuts. The smile on his face, fantastic."

  16. Lowry aces the 16th

    Lowry (+10 after 16)

    Peter Alliss
    BBC Sport commentator live on BBC Two at Augusta

    "Shane Lowry just eases in to his tee shot. It's a familiar-looking swing, middle of the green, hits the ridge, you just wondered if it had enough power to reach. But it keeps going and it is a dead cert. It has smartened his score up. A beauty, a real beauty!"

  17. So, after an ace from Lowry, time for me to hand over to our live text ace, Tom Fordyce. He'll take you through to the conclusion...

  18. Hole in one for Lowry!

    Lowry (+10 after 16)

    Hole in one Shane Lowry.

    Hello there, we have our first hole-in-one of the week! It's grizzly Irishman Shane Lowry who has provided it at the 16th, pitching the ball beautifully onto the ridge and getting it to feed back beautifully into the middle of the cup. Bullseye! He celebrates by high-fiving playing partner Patrick Reed with enough force to fracture his wrist.

  19. Spieth (-3 after), Kaufman (-2 after 1)

    Tentative from Spieth at the first, leaving his birdie putt a good three feet short. Kaufman's stiffed his approach to a very makeable distance - can he take advantage? No, the ball hits the lip and stays up, and Smylie's chance to lead the Masters goes a-begging for now.

  20. Bogey for McIlroy

    McIlroy (+3 after 4)

    Rory McIlroy misses.

    The good news for Rory McIlroy is that he managed to locate the ball from his original tee shot after a bit of Ray Mears-style woodland reconnaissance. He pitches onto the green to leave himself with a tricky par putt, but he can't knock it in and that's another shot gone.
