AUGUSTA, Georgia (Reuters) - It was mission accomplished for Adam Scott on Saturday as the Australian put on a clinical display of precise ball-striking at the U.S Masters to sneak within striking distance of a second Green Jacket with a second successive three-under 69. A second Green Jacket seemed a long-shot after Scott missed the cut last week in his Masters tune-up in Houston, and then opened his account on Thursday with a three-over 75. Playing in his 16th Masters, Scott knows he will have to get through the front nine without any damage and then attack. "But I'm going out there with no pressure tomorrow, playing really well tee to green, feeling good on the greens. So it's really going to be an exciting day tomorrow."
