Jon Rahm managed to make progress on the second day of the Augusta Masters after being about to stop in the street. He managed to cope with Thursday's bad day, when he finished the tour with 78 hits, with 6 more hits than the field parra, the worst of his ten participations.

The Biscayans needed twenty holes on this second day to sign their first birdie in the second hole of the day.

I see if I can get close to the top ten.

The 2023 champion had a great start with birdies in holes 2 and 4, but in the ninthhe did bogeya and paid for that.Finally, in hole 16 he got another birdie, and so he presented a two-stroke card under the parra.

On the other hand, champion Jose Maria Olazabal 1994 and 1999 failed to advance in the tournament by presenting the card of the stroke 79 (+7), and in total, in the first two days, with a result of +9.

McIlroy, strong in leadership.

As for the favourites, Northern Irish Rory McIlroy remains strong in defending the green jacket and leads the rankings with a 12-card.

Six hits is two Americans: Sam Burns and Patrick Reed.

Then there's the Irishman Shane Lowry and the English Justin Rose and Tommy Fleetwood , both with 5 cards, seven hits from the leader.
