Adam Scott will take a 67 any day at Augusta National.
The Australian made up some serious ground on the Masters leaderboard Saturday after matching Angel Cabrera and Bubba Watson for low round of the day. Tied for sixth at 7-under, Scott is five shots behind leader Rory McIlroy.
"I felt like I played OK the first two days, just a little bit off," Scott said. "But today, everything kind of fell into place. It was nice to get a bit of momentum going and keep it going for most of the round."
Cabrera, Watson, Charl Schwartzel and Bo Van Pelt also made big moves. Cabrera, the 2009 Masters champion, and Schwartzel are tied for second at 8-under with K.J. Choi and Jason Day, while Van Pelt is in eighth place behind Scott and Luke Donald.
Going low is one way to climb the leaderboard. But Scott and Co. got a big assist from the guys who'd been ahead of them, too. The last five groups Saturday were a cumulative 11 over, with only McIlroy and Choi shooting below par.
