Frustrated Lowry sees momentum slip away as Scottie Scheffler retains three-shot Masters lead

Lowry’s frustration boiled over with bogey on the par-5 13th hole that not only took the wind out of him progress but prompted a beef with his caddie Bo Martin.

Scottie Scheffler cracked the door ever so slightly for his chasers, but Shane Lowry failed to keep his foot in it on a cold and difficult Saturday at the Masters.

Scheffler broke par for the third straight day to sit at 9-under 207, three shots ahead of charging Australian Cameron Smith – whose Saturday 68 was the lone round in the 60s on a bitingly cold and blustery day. Sungjae Im recovered after dropping three strokes on the front to play the back in 4-under to sit five off the lead.
