Roy Mcllroy said that there is an opportunity of him winning the Masters after Jordan Spieth (defending champion) stumbled and threw the tournament wide open.
Jordan went down by 3 shots on the last 2 holes which made him to end on 3 under par. This is one shot in front of Smylie Kaufman and 2 ahead of Mcllroy.
“I think it’s winnable from here. If Jordan hadn’t had that finish then I would probably say no,” said McIlroy.
“But the guys on two and three over like me feel we have a chance now.”
While undergoing testing rounds at Augusta, Mcllroy managed to get 77 shots.
“I just have to make sure that I get off to a fast start, put some red numbers on the board and make a bit of noise to put a bit of pressure on the guys playing behind me,” he said.
“I’m only five back and I can’t believe I am standing here saying that because I was eight behind standing on the 17th tee. I need to regroup and stay positive and go out and attack.”
