Who will be the master of the Masters?

The World

The Masters Tournament in Augusta, Georgia started yesterday with a wild start by Chad Campbell who threatened the record books by almost breaking the score for most under par on one of the world’s most difficult courses. Campbell ended the day with a seven-under-par 65, which wasn’t quite enough to break the record but put him firmly in the lead. It wasn’t as good a day for Tiger Woods who finished the day with a two under par 70 and tied for 20th. Joining us is sports blogger Ibrahim Abdul-Matin to tell us more about what has been happening down there on the green in Georgia.
