One of the most dramatic final rounds at The Masters in years looms large as Rory McIlroy tries desperately to end his infamous major drought.
But the overnight leader (-12) must overcome US Open nemesis Bryson DeChambeau, who is two shots back and will join him in the last pairing, and a chasing pack including Aussie star Jason Day who has a plan to pinch the green jacket.

McIlroy, who is trying to complete the career grand slam, infamously melted down at Pinehurst last year missing short par putts at 16 and 18 in the final round as DeChambeau came up clutch to win his second US Open crown – and extend McIlroy’s now 11-year quest for another major.
Day, who is seven shots back of McIlroy, believes early nerves could give him a shot at a miracle victory.
“If he doesn’t do anything early tomorrow, there’s some pressure,” Day said.
“If he comes out and he shoots even par the front side, you get something (going) – say four-under the front nine – you’re only (three) back. Anything can happen.”

Day was runner-up in his 2011 Masters debut – the year McIlroy led by four going into the final day and shot an 80 – and third in 2013, picking up one stroke during the third round.
“Trying to find just a little bit more control with the irons,” Day said.
“I’ve played pretty sound so far. I’ve made three bogeys for the week, which is good. I haven’t been able to capitalise on the opportunities when I get on the green. A little (better) putting, a little bit of (approach play), and who knows what happens.”
The only other Aussie who made the cut, Min Woo Lee, shot a five-over 77 leaving him at four-over.
