AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) -- Jordan Spieth closed out the front nine with four straight birdies to build a five-shot lead going into the final stretch of the Masters.
A victory would make him the fourth player to win back-to-back, and the first player ever to win wire-to-wire in successive years.
And the 22-year-old Texan was making it look easy.
Spieth also led by five shots at the turn last year, when he started the final round with a four-shot lead. This time, six players were within three shots of the lead - but not for long.
