So much of what happens Sunday at the Masters will depend on the wind.

Throughout the first three rounds, the wind at the Augusta, Georgia, course has not been howling. However, it has been gusting, and those bursts have impacted everything in the first major tournament of the year.

The wind affects the players' stance and setup, the mental approach to each shot, the flight of the ball and, perhaps most dramatically, the putting.

Leader Jordan Spieth has done the best job of playing in the conditions, but he has had plenty of issues this week. He has had back-to-back rounds where he has failed to break par, and the only reason he's in the lead is that he shot 66 in the opening round.

Spieth could have been ahead by multiple shots entering the final round, but he bogeyed the 17th hole Saturday and closed with a double bogey on the 18th. Spieth will start his final round with a score of three-under par.



As a result, Smylie Kaufman is just one stroke back, while Hideki Matsuyama and 58-year-old Bernhard Langer are two strokes behind at one under.

Spieth and Kaufman will tee off in the final pairing of the day at 2:45 p.m. ET, while Langer and Matsuyama will start their round 10 minutes earlier. Here's a look at Sunday's final-round tee times.



McIlroy believes that the final round could be wide open as a result of the trouble that Spieth had on Nos. 17 and 18. 

"I think it's winnable from here. If Jordan hadn't had that finish, then I would probably say no," McIlroy said after the round, according to BB...
