Masters 2019 leaderboard: Brooks Koepka and Bryson DeChambeau share lead after day one at Masters

Relive all the action from day one at Augusta

The masters: Which golfer has won the most titles?

Brooks Koepka, who has won two of the last three majors, held a share of the first-round Masters lead with Bryson DeChambeau while three-times champion Phil Mickelson was one shot off the pace on Thursday.

Koepka, who missed last year's Masters with a wrist injury, used a combination of jaw-dropping power and laser-like irons to card a six-under-par 66 to sit atop the leaderboard with Bryson DeChambeau, who came within inches of a closing eagle.

American Koepka, who does not have a top-10 finish in three starts at the Masters, enjoyed a four-hole birdie run from the 12th to pull ahead but had to settle for a share of the lead after DeChambeau closed with four consecutive birdies.

DeChambeau, who was playing two groups ahead of Koepka and nearly aced the par-three 16th, almost walked into the clubhouse with the outright lead but his approach at the 18th rammed into the flagstick and settled inches away for a tap-in birdie.

The 1st:

Woosnam, Mitchell and Tway all make par at the first. 

Overcast conditions with warm temperatures due later in the day. 

[11 April 2019 14:12 · Michael Jones]

The 1st: 'Tea Olive'

'A slight dogleg right that plays uphill. Drives to the left may catch the trees. The hole requires a precise second shot to an undulating green. A poorly struck approach may result in a difficult two-putt.'

In 1935, the hole featured a left fairway bunker that was later removed. A greenside bunker, front and left, was added in 1951.

[11 April 2019 14:15 · Michael Jones]

The 2nd:

Landry birdies the second to move back to level par alongside Conners, a par for Long keeps him at one-over.

Tee-off:

Angel Cabrera, the winner in 2009 is next on course alongside Aaron Wise and Justin Harding.

[11 April 2019 14:20 · Michael Jones]

The 1st:

Bogeys for Lowry and Weir, whilst amateur O'Connell makes par.

The 2nd:

Kevin Tway moves to -1 with a birdie at the 2nd. He's the first player under par so far. 

[11 April 2019 14:26 · Michael Jones]

The 1st:

Mixed fortunes at the 1st as Wise and Cabrera bogey whilst Harding makes birdie. He joins Tway at -1.

Tee-off: 

Danny Willett, 2016 Masters champion, Brandt Snedeker and 20-year-old Japanese amateur Takumi Kanaya are out on the course.

[11 April 2019 14:29 · Michael Jones]

The 1st: 

Snedeker and Kanaya (A) birdie 'Tea Olive' to take a share of the lead. Willet makes par. 

The 3rd:

Landry, Long and Conners through three, Conners +1, Landry and Long at level par.

[11 April 2019 14:31 · Michael Jones]

Tee-off:

59-year-old Fred Couples, Si Woo Kim and J. B. Holmes are next up to tee off on Masters Thursday.

[11 April 2019 14:34 · Michael Jones]

The 2nd: 'Pink Dogwood'

'No. 2 is a dogleg left which may be reachable in two. Large, deep greenside bunkers demand special attention on the second shot.

Originally, the green was guarded by a lone bunker on the right. That bunker was reduced in size in 1966, and a left bunker was added in 1946.'

[11 April 2019 14:37 · Michael Jones]

The 3rd:

Tway, Woosnam and Mitchell negotiate the third with pars.

Tee-off:

South African Branden Grace, Emiliano Grillo and Lucas Bjerregaard will tee off in the next few minutes.

[11 April 2019 14:40 · Michael Jones]

Tway: -1 through 3
