AUGUSTA, Ga. — Rory McIlroy started the third round of the Masters with a record six-shot lead through 36 holes. It was gone by the time he walked off the 11th green.

With one stunning development after another, the Masters went from a one-man show to a wide-open race for the green jacket Saturday. The first big threat was Cameron Young, who won The Players Championship in his last start.
