Aaron Wise, the 2016 NCAA college champion, is tied for second with former world No1 Jason Day, with 2011 Masters victor Charl Schwarzel and England's Paul Casey a shot further back. Day has a chance for his second victory this year.

The Clara man three-putted the third from 52 feet, birdied the par-five seventh to get back to level but then had a torrid time with the blade on the back nine.

Next up for Niemann, a 19-year-old from Santiago, Chile, is this week's Wells Fargo Championship at Quail Hollow Club. He was the 54-hole leader at last year's US PGA Championship and finished T6 at the Wells Fargo in 2014.

Playing in just a handful of PGA Tour events a year ago, Uihlein qualified for the season-ending Web.com Tour Finals, won the Nationwide Children's Hospital Championship and earned his PGA Tour card for the first time.

"The Masters has now become the biggest golf tournament in the world", McIlroy said. I've got everything in place for both sides of it, so I'm not going to be bothered if I make it (back onto the Tour full-time). "Obviously, I'm superstitious and it worked out, so hopefully it does it again".

Day's round included a spectacular hole-out from a greenside bunker for eagle on the par five 10th hole.

"I'm never going to settle", Reed said. "I'm just - you know, I just kind of want to be a dad and like be around my kid and my family more often, even though, yeah, they're here this week, but they can't come every week", Peterson said.

Malnati made two straight birdies and finished with a par that felt like a birdie.

At seven-under 135, Malnati heads Australian Day (67) and Aaron Wise (68) by a shot, while South African Charl Schwartzel (67) and Englishman Paul Casey (68) trail by two.

He regained that dropped shot on the second, hitting a majestic iron to 10 feet before stroking home the birdie.

On Friday, Woods began off the 10th tee and took bogeys at the par-four 11th and 14th holes, missing par putts of seven and eight feet. As a testament to the conditions, all he did was shrug.

"If I don't make it, I'm not playing golf anymore". "The score sort of flatters me", he said.

Still in the early stages of his return from debilitating back trouble, Woods said the more he plays, the better he feels.

And - although it was not the collapse of 2011, when he enjoyed a four-shot lead after 54 holes before crashing to a closing 80 - the Northern Irishman has now failed to convert his first four chances to join Gene Sarazen, Ben Hogan, Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods in completing a career grand slam.

He was in the same spot as Woods, nine shots out of the lead.
