We're more than four hours from the final group in the final round of the 72nd Masters teeing off. Trevor Immelman is the 54-hole leader, and is the only player on the property who has three consecutive rounds in the 60s. The guy missed one fairway yesterday -- only four for the tournament -- he's hitting three out of four greens in regulation, hasn't been in a bunker all week and has just one bogey.
But of the 205 strokes Immelman's made through three rounds, perhaps the most important one took place yesterday, his third shot to the par-5 15th.
At the time, CBS analyst Jim Nantz pointed to Fred Couples' similar good fortune during the 1992 tournament. And if Immelman manages to get through 18 holes this afternoon without throwing up all over himself, I'm guessing that shot will be his Freddie Moment.
And Tiger will have still not won a major when trailing after three rounds.

1. My favorite part of that is, "Sprint and play! don't worry about the divot."
