Tyrrell Hatton’s transformation plays him into contention at the MastersBy Carl Markham, Press Association, AugustaTyrrell Hatton’s transformation from “headless” to dialled in over the space of 24 hours saw the Englishman produce a seven-birdie blitz as a second-round 66 propelled him into contention at the Masters. It would have been even better but for a six-foot par putt which horseshoed out at the last.

Rose would give a shot back after going long at the par-three 12th but a birdie on the 15th saw him sign for a 69. He was joined on five under by 2018 champion Patrick Reed, who was two-under for his round to the turn.
