Whicker: Dustin Johnson cruising at Masters, but beware the Sunday punch

Augusta National buckled beneath the feet of Dustin Johnson on Saturday. Now comes the day of the trap doors. Johnson shot one of the most relaxed 65s in Masters Tournament history. He stands at 16-under-par, four ahead of Sunjae Im of South Korea, Abraham Ancer of Mexico and Cameron Smith of Australia. He is ranked No. 1 in the world. In his wake, No. 2 Jon Rahm and No. 3 Justin Thomas trembled. His 200 for 54 holes ties Jordan Spieth’s record, set in 2015, when Spieth went on to shoot 18-under...

Johnson, Thomas among Masters leaders, while DeChambeau is in danger of going home

This was the day that Bryson DeChambeau learned the flip side of hitting a golf ball out of sight. DeChambeau’s crusade to redefine driving length in professional golf has not put a dent in this Masters. On the 350-yard, par-4 third hole on Friday, he crushed a drive that landed just short of the green in left rough. But neither DeChambeau nor anyone else could find it, and he trudged back to the tee for his third shot after the lost-ball penalty and struggled to a triple-bogey seven. DeChambeau...
