Masters Tournament 2015: Mobile Updates for Sunday Leaderboard Scores

Sunday at the 2015 Masters should be a dandy. We have three of the world's best within two strokes of the lead, highlighted by all-time Augusta great Phil Mickelson and Charley Hoffman, an underdog story if there ever was one. Also looming are Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods, who are possibly one more low score away from putting pressure on the leaders.

Oh, right. Never mind. That battle is for second place. 

I'm sure you can forgive me for being misleading; it takes an awful lot of effort to crane your neck upward and see Jordan Spieth hanging up there all alone, practicing poses for his green jacket. He has carded a Masters record 16-under score through 54 holes and is one 69 away from breaking Tiger's all-time scoring record.

The Texan came out blazing Thursday with an eight-under 64 and hasn't stopped since, carding three near-flawless rounds to gain a four-stroke lead over the field. Only a double bogey on No. 17 Saturday prevented Spieth from matching Woods' 72-hole record in his first 54. Either way, it'll take a pretty big collapse for Spieth to miss out on his first major championship.

With that in mind, here's a quick look at our updating leaderboard and a preview of Sunday's action.

The only thing worth real analysis here is the all-time great weekend put together by Spieth. His ability to keep that going will define Sunday at Augusta. Chances are, even with a round at par, Bubba Watson will be placing a jacket on Spieth's back by the early evening.

"Well, it's just the same for anybody," Watson said when asked if he had any advice for Spieth, per Scott Adamson of PGA.com. "You're nervous, you're trying not to think about it, you're trying to just focus on one shot at a time and get ready for that first tee shot."

Spieth's nerves have been seemingly non-existent for nearly all 54 holes he's played so far. He's compiled his 16-under score without too many outlier statistics. He is above-average in terms of driving accuracy and greens in regulation, but he's not sitting atop any of the underlying stats that usually signify low scores.

Dustin Johnson is averaging nearly 40 extra yards off the tee. Kevin Streelman is hitting an extra 10 percent of fairways. Ian Poulter is on the green more often. But all together, Spieth keeps knocking down shots when he needs to and appears in total control on the course.

"I think the good thing for him is he's already experienced it once," McIlroy said, per CBS News. "He's played in the final group at the Masters before. It didn't quite happen for him last year, but I think he'll have learned from that experience. I think all that put together, he'll definitely handle it a lot better than I did."

Behind Spieth is a threesome that hopes Spieth channels the 2011 version of McIlroy. Justin Rose has played well enough through three days to win the event in most years. He has hit better than 75 percent of his fairways and greens, averaged nearly 300 yards off the tee and closed his third round with five birdies in his last six holes.

Mickelson is playing his best golf since, well, I dunno, 2013 maybe. He seems back at ease on his favorite course, carding three consecutive under-par rounds to put him in position for by far his best finish of the season. Coming into Augusta, Lefty had not finished any higher than a tie for 17th during the calendar year.

"It's special to me because this place means so much to me," Mickelson, an Augusta favorite, said, per Bill Plaschke of The Los Angeles Times. "The way the people have treated me just adds to it."

Hoffman is the dark horse in this field, the only one who could reasonably approximate Spieth's scores through two rounds but seems destined to fade back a little. He scrambled for a one-under 71 on Saturday, somehow keeping it together despite a poor driving performance. Given that he's not the longest guy on tour, Hoffman could wind up going high if he's not more careful off the tee.

That said, it's unlikely to matter. The week has been defined by Spieth's mission statement to perch himself at the top of golf's highest mountain. I doubt anything will stop him now.
