Matsuyama Taking Lead At Masters
Golfer Matsuyama Hideki has become the solo leader at the end of the third round of the men's Masters Tournament.
The 29-year-old Japanese golfer started Saturday's round in sixth place, three strokes behind the leader.
Matsuyama maintained steady shots. He had five birdies and an eagle to post a bogey-free round, improving his score by seven strokes. He is carrying a four-shot lead into the final on Sunday at 11 under.
The Masters, which is held every year at the Augusta National Golf Club in the US state of Georgia, is one of the world's four major men's golf tournaments.
Matsuyama finished fifth at the 2015 Masters. He now aims to become the first Japanese man to win a major.
