And Rory McIlroy heads into round three today at the Masters with a six-shot lead after setting a tournament record yesterday for the largest 36-hole lead.

McIlroy had six birdies over his final seven holes, including a chip-in from 30 yards on the 17th hole.

The reigning champs now at 12 under 132.

Again, six shots clear of Patrick Reed and Sam Burns.
