JUSTIN ROSE recovered from a poor start to claim a slender halfway lead in the 85th Masters as defending champion Dustin Johnson and Rory McIlroy made early exits at Augusta National.
Rose was four shots clear following a brilliant 65 on a tough opening day when just two other players broke 70, but saw that advantage wiped out after covering his first 12 holes in three over.

The Front Nine comes at you on a day when the world says goodbye to my sweet and loving father with a celebration of a life well-lived. I’ll try to keep it together.
1. The reason I am such a sports nut is because of my Dad. It was ingrained in me early when we would listen to Otis Boggs on the radio. But who I am isn’t what this week has been about. It’s about who he was and how lucky we all were to have him so long. The biggest void I think all of us are going to feel is that we don’t have that rock to lean on.

AUGUSTA: Justin Rose humbled a firm and fast Augusta National layout that wreaked havoc upon many of the world’s top golfers, seizing a four-stroke lead on Thursday at the 85th Masters.
Rose, the 2013 US Open champion, birdied five of the last seven holes in shooting a seven-under par 65, his career-low score by two strokes in 59 Masters rounds.
The 40-year-old Englishman defied a lightning-fast layout that baffled his rivals by going nine-under over the last 11 holes, the best such Masters closing run by any golfer since 2004.
