The Masters leaderboard is a key part of any golf enthusiast’s viewing experience during this prestigious tournament. Keeping track of the player rankings and experiencing each twist and turn in real-time adds a new layer of excitement to the entire event. As the tournament reaches its final rounds, every stroke counts toward determining who will receive the coveted green jacket.

The top 50 players, plus ties, on the leaderboard following Round 2 advance to the weekend, where only one golfer can claim victory. The first step toward winning a green jacket is making the Masters cut, which this year landed at two over par. The Masters is a grueling test of golf, and the players must be well prepared to play the entire course if they want to make the final two rounds.

A golf fan can follow the progress of every player on the leaderboard by reading through the individual hole-by-hole reports. A score is shown for each player at the start of their round, and each subsequent hole reflects a player’s total score to par, highlighting both gained and lost shots from that point forward.

Rory McIlroy is at the forefront of the leaders after a birdie at the 10th. The Northern Irishman hit a towering iron into the par-three hole, and sank the putt to move to 14 under. He’s four clear of Justin Rose, who made a birdie at the 12th to get himself into solo second at 10-under.
