'I’ve always wanted to play Augusta like this': Shane Lowry in top-10 as Justin Rose charges into Masters lead

Rose has a curious Masters record. He’s the only player to have at least a share of the lead after 18, 36, 54, and 72 holes but never won a green jacket

In 15 previous starts at Augusta National, Justin Rose bas built a reputation as a fast starter, consistent contender, frequent leader but never a winner.

The 40-year-old Englishman is fashioning a promising bid to change that last part, shooting a career-best 65 to open a four-shot lead in the 85th Masters Tournament – second only to eventual winner Craig Wood’s five-stroke jump in 1941.
