The main event at the 2018 Masters on Friday was Augusta National striking out against the field quite a bit, striking out all but Patrick Reed.

Reed teed off late but quickly got going with a six-birdie 31 on the opening nine, and he kept it going to the finish with three more birdies on the back nine for a 66.

Putting him at 9 under for the tournament and two shots ahead of the field. While one of only 16 players (out of 87 in the field) to shoot under par on the day.

Reed was undeterred by the challenging playing conditions as the field’s average score was almost 2 over.

Other athletes who went low late on Friday to position themselves for a Saturday charge at Reed and the lead included Marc Leishman and Justin Thomas.

The leaderboard is stacked with celebrities, and eight previous major champions are in the top 14 as we head into the weekend.

Even on a day when both Phil Mickelson and Tiger Woods played themselves out of contention, but not so terribly that they missed the cut.
