Masters 2022 LIVE: Leaderboard and scores as Scottie Scheffler takes five-shot lead and Tiger Woods makes cut

Dustin Johnson, speaking to Sky Sports: “It was ok today. I didn’t strike the ball as well as I did yesterday but I made some good up and downs, which you need to do here. It’s windy, it’s gusty, it’s tough. It’s hard to get close to the hole. It played difficult. It’s tough to hit the fairways with the crosswinds.”

But just like that, now Willett takes the lead! He drains a lovely putt from 12 feet or so at the ninth to reach the turn at -1 for the day.

Three former Masters champions at the top of the leaderboard.

And Matsuyama puts away the birdie putt to join the leaders. What a wonderful approach that was.

McIlroy also makes his birdie at the 16th.

Matsuyama is cooking. The defending champion plays a sublime approach into the par-3 6th and will have a chance for birdie to take a share of the lead.

McIlroy also hits a nice approach into 16th and will putt for birdie from eight feet or so. He played the par 5s on the back nine even par today, but they have been harder than usual given the conditions.

Collin Morikawa closes with a par at 18th to card a round of -2, taking him to -1 overall. It felt as if he had been on the cusp of things all morning. Indeed, this is still the second best score of the day so far, and it would have been even better had it not been that bizarre error that found the water at the 11th.

Dustin Johnson’s safely home as well. He held it together on the back nine after making a couple of errors before the turn. He had the chance at a closing birdie from 12 feet but taps away a ninth straight par. He’s very much in contention.

The tough start continues for Tiger Woods. A missed putt at the 5th brings up a third bogey in a row, and fourth to start his round.

Smith saves an important par at the 6th after leaving his lengthy birdie putt 10 feet or so short, while Danny Willett scrambles to a par at the par-5 8th after finding the trees with his second shot.

Every par feels important now.

Why hello there, our defending champion. Hideki Matsuyama was well-placed after an even-par round yesterday, and back-to-back birdies at the 2nd and 3rd means that he is now just one shot off the lead!

Morikawa has also birdied the 16th. The leaderboard is really tightening now.

A huge turnaround at the top of Sungjae Im’s par putt at the last trickles past the hole, just as Danny Willett pushed a par putt at the 7th from eight feet.

It drops both players to -3, with five players now in a share of the lead.

There’s another dropped shot for Woods at the 4th, his third bogey in his opening four holes. He’s not the only one struggling out there, given the conditions.

Im battles to a par at 17 and is looking to do the same at 18 after finding the trees with a wayward drive to the right. He pitches his third shot to six feet and will have that to finish his round at -4 overall.

Johnson has a chance for birdie after a fine approach at 16, but the downhill putt slides past the hole.

This is the busiest part of the day with most of the featured groups and all of the leaders out on the course at the same time.

Cameron Smith has dropped a further shot at the 4th while Scottie Scheffler has got back to -3 at the par-5 2nd after making an opening bogey.

Johnson and Morikawa have got through the 13-15 run at level par - with both players having chances at the par-5 15th.

Danny Willett makes another good par save at the 6th.
