Spieth leads Kaufman by 1 at Masters

For much of the afternoon, it looked like Jordan Spieth might run away and hide at the Masters. But after a sloppy close, the defending champ is left to cling to a one-shot lead heading into the final round at Augusta National:

Leaderboard: Jordan Spieth (-6), Smylie Kaufman (-2), Hideki Matsuyama (-1), Bernhard Langer (-1), Jason Day (Even), Dustin Johnson (Even), Danny Willett (Even)

What it means: Spieth started the day with a one-shot lead, and after a run of back-nine birdies he boosted his advantage to four shots with three holes to play.
