Masters 2019: Live Updates for Leaderboard Scores on Saturday

Francesco Molinari ended Round 2 of the 2019 as one of five players on seven under par and top of the leaderboard ahead of moving day. The Italian was joined by some quality competition, including Brooks Koepka and Jason Day.

However, big names such as Tiger Woods are still in the mix, while pre-tournament favourite Rory McIlroy is aiming for at least a score in the mid-60s to catapult himself into contention.

McIlroy had already started his round at the time of writing, sinking this birdie on the par-three four to get himself going:

It had been a tough start for the player chasing a first win at Augusta and a career Grand Slam, as McIlroy carded 73 and 71 during the opening two rounds.

Yet despite his struggles, the 29-year-old still showcased what he can do at his best:

He needs a lot more of this kind of magic to make moving day a success and ensure he's still in with a chance of donning the green jacket on Sunday.

It's a similar story for Woods, although the 43-year-old is in a much stronger position than McIlroy. Woods is just one shot adrift of the joint-leaders because of a fine 68 accrued on Day 2.

The four-time green jacket winner knows how to hold his nerve when things reach the clutch stage at Augusta, and he accumulated six birdies on Friday to prove he is a threat to take home his first major title since 2008.

Like Woods, Dustin Johnson is still in touch with those at the top, while Jon Rahm will begin his round at five under. Meanwhile, three-time winner Phil Mickelson is still hanging around at four under, and few players know how to steadily negotiate this course as well as the 48-year-old.

It all points to another terrific round in what is already proving an entertaining and typically tough-to-predict edition of the famous tournament.
