Vanderbilt graduate Brandt Snedeker quietly made his around Augusta National on Saturday, shooting a bogey-free 69 and emerging into a tie for lead with Argentina’s Angel Cabrera after Saturday’s play at The Masters.
Snedeker parred the first 12 holes of his third round, birdied 13, 15, and 16, and then made solid pars on 17 and 18 to finish with a 69.
“I played a clean scorecard,” Snedeker said after his round to CBS. “Making no bogeys around here is a really great thing for me. I drove the ball great today, I really didn’t put myself in trouble at all. I kind of hit away from pins and hit the fat sides of greens, relied on my putting to get me through and made some good putts coming down the stretch to shoot that 69.”
Snedeker will be paired with Cabrera in the final twosome of the day. The twosome will tee off at 1:40 p.m. CT . Live coverage of the final round will begin at 1 p.m. CT on CBS.
