Jordan Spieth makes history by breaking 36-hole record at the Masters

Unbelievable

Kevin McGillicuddy

As close to perfect as you can get

Jordan Spieth very much got out the right side of bed this morning after an incredible performance at day two of Masters.

The 21-year-old has just broken a 39-year record by shooting 14 under in the opening 36 holes at Augusta

The previous landmark was set by Raymond Floyd in 1976 when he hit -13 in his opening two rounds.

He didn’t hit a single bogey today, as he shot a scarcely believable 66 to set the pace. He shot a 64 on day one and today’s incredible performance means he is the clear favourite to land the Green Jacket on Sunday night. However Charley Hoffman may have something to say about that, as he’s so far the closest challenger currently at 9 under Speith had the chance to even do better than his 14 under round but missed his putt on 18 by inches
