World No 1 Scottie Scheffler remains favourite for victory at The Masters after moving into a share of the halfway lead at Augusta National , where Tiger Woods made history and Rory McIlroy stuttered into the weekend. Scheffler carded a level-par 72 in strong winds at Augusta National to remain at six under and make it a three-way tie at the top with Ryder Cup team-mate Max Homa and overnight leader Bryson DeChambeau.
DeChambeau dropped a shot at the 14th hole and then three-putted the par-four last to finish with a closing bogey and drop back alongside Homa, who had set the initial target on six under after mixing two birdies with one bogey in an impressive one-under 71.
