The final round of the 2024 Masters has arrived with Scottie Scheffler gripping a narrow one-stroke lead over talented rival Collin Morikawa as both vie for the prestigious green jacket at Augusta National.

In the final pairing of the day, Scheffler and Morikawa are set to battle it out on the remarkable greens of Augusta National, but they aren’t the only captivating duo in the spotlight.

Golf icon Tiger Woods, fresh off his record-breaking 24th consecutive cut on Friday, enters his monumental 100th Masters round aiming to find his form alongside the low amateur, Neal Shipley, by his side.

Following Woods, defending champion Jon Rahm takes to the course for his last 18 holes, sharing the round with close friend Tony Finau to conclude his tournament journey.

The afternoon excitement kicks off with Rory McIlroy and Joaquin Niemann pairing up, with McIlroy seeking a surge up the leaderboard after a mixed bag of results, while Niemann aims to secure an invite back to Augusta next year with a strong finish.

Remaining contenders for the green jacket, Xander Schauffele and Bryson DeChambeau, wrap up the featured groups, with Schauffele at 2 under and DeChambeau holding on at 3 under due to a stunning hole-out in the previous round.

All eyes are on the thrilling action unfolding at the Masters, with CBS Sports providing comprehensive live coverage throughout the day, culminating in the crowning of the 2024 champion under the iconic Augusta sun.
