2024 Masters Tournament | Friday Updates

AUGUSTA, Ga. (WJBF) - The opening round of the 88th Masters Tournament is complete and the second round is underway on schedule at Augusta National Golf Club. Nine groupings completed their first round Friday morning due to a weather delay to begin the tournament on Thursday.

Bryson DeChambeau (-7) leads by one entering round two. After the two and a half hour weather delay before Thursday's opening round, he shot 75 to take the lead by a stroke after missing the cut here the last two years.

"It's been extremely disappointing, especially with how well I love this golf course, love the Patrons, love the members, love the golf course conditions," DeChambeau said of his recent performance at Augusta. "Everything about it, it's something I've dreamed of always winning my entire life."

One stroke behind DeChambeau is 2022 champion Scottie Scheffler, who shot a bogey-free 66 on Thursday. His wife Meredith is due with their first child in the very near future, possibly as early as this week.

"People have asked us how our preparation is going for the baby," Scheffler said. "I feel like, well, we are a little underprepared. The nursery is not quite ready and we've had some issues at our house the last few weeks. I think that's the exciting part. I think we are definitely underprepared to be parents.

As far as her going into labor, I wouldn't say I'm very concerned. We haven't seen any of the early signs. But pregnancy is weird. It can happen at any time. Yeah, open lines of communication and she can get ahold of me if she needs to.

Yeah, I'm ready to go at a moment's notice."

Five-time champion Tiger Woods (+1) completed the final five holes of his opening round Friday morning, going +2 over that stretch. Friday he will attempt to make the cut at the Masters for a record-setting 24th consecutive time.
