Jordan Spieth is threatening to turn one of the most anticipated Masters in recent memory into a runaway. The 21-year-old American has made Augusta National Golf Club look far too easy over the first two days, setting the tournament's 36-hole scoring record in the process.

He was certainly on the radar coming into the event given his strong play recently. He was more of a secondary story, however, with Rory McIlroy's Grand Slam pursuit and Tiger Woods' return taking center stage. The rising star has now stolen the spotlight.

The question on moving day is whether he will continue to increase his lead or if other players can make a charge to add some drama for Sunday. Let's check out the current leaderboard, followed by a preview of the Saturday afternoon action and predictions for how things will look at day's end.

Saturday Afternoon Preview



Spieth must decide before the round what his preferred approach is Saturday. He could continue to attack, hoping to eliminate all doubt before crunch time Sunday, or back off a bit, trying to limit his risk given the five-stroke edge.

While there are pros and cons to each style of play, one thing that should be taken into account is the expected course conditions. Tournament organizers probably aren't overly thrilled about the low scores and a leader who could pull away from the field.

In turn, it wouldn't be a surprise if things are more tricky over the weekend, with hope of spurring a little more competition. To his credit, the young player is remaining laser-focused, as highlighted by Bill Pennington of The New York Times.



"The last couple days, it doesn't mean anything unless I can close it out," Spieth said. "I don't want this to go in as the 36-hole record but as somebody who didn't win."

He's got the right minds...
