The Masters 2025 LIVE: Day two as it happened

Justin Rose leads the 2025 Masters at Augusta National by one stroke from LIV Golf recruit Bryson DeChambeau.

NEW: MASTERS R3 LIVE UPDATES

England's Justin Rose leads the 2025 Masters after 36 holes.

Rose carded a 1-under 71 on Friday to reach the summit on 8-under par.

He leads 2024 U.S. Open champion Bryson DeChambeau by one stroke. 

Rory McIlroy looked as though his bid to achieve the career grand slam was done and dusted for another year.

But the Ulsterman roared back into contention on day two with a 6-under 66.

Scottie Scheffler, the reigning champion, battled his way to an entertaining 71.

Tyrrell Hatton, Jason Day, Corey Conners, Shane Lowry and Viktor Hovland are also inside the top 10.

First group has played the 1st

Long-shot outsiders Patton Kizzire and Davis Riley have just played the 1st in the first group of the day.

It's a tough start for Kizzire, who made a bogey-five, while Riley made a solid par. 

Thankfully Patton held his frustration together at the 1st and didn't boot his putter over the other side of the green. 

For those none the wiser, here's what he did last month:
