Saturday's Masters Notes

Delayed Departure
Two-time Masters Champion Ben Crenshaw missed the 36-hole cut for the first time in three years, but he stuck around Augusta National Saturday to give him more time to see his many friends and family.
Crenshaw missed eight putts in the first two days inside of 10 feet, highly rare for someone known for his putting brilliance.
"I just didn't see any putts going in the hole," Crenshaw said from the Clubhouse on a rainy Saturday.
He will return to the Champions Tour and plans to play in 21 events this year.

Early group
Because of an uneven number of people making cut, Miguel Angel Jimenez played in the first group early Saturday. He played with a non-competing marker, Jeff Knox, a low handicap Augusta amateur. Knox did not keep score, picking up on several holes to speed play, but Jimenez was one under par after nine holes and finished at even par 72. The twosome played in less than four hours.

Weather Woes
The Masters suffered its second weather delay of the Tournament Saturday, when play was suspended for heavy rain and thunder at 1:02 p.m. It was the first rain delay since the third round of the 2006 Tournament. Play resumed at 1:40 p.m.

Thursday's first round was also delayed one hour by morning fog.

Bubba's blast
Bubba Watson is one of the longest drivers on the PGA Tour and was sixth in the 2008 Masters driving distance with a 287-yards average, just ahead of Tiger Woods. He expected to have an advantage Saturday when wet course conditions made the course play even longer than usual.
But Watson struggled with a one over 73 in the third round and was two over par 216 after 54 holes.
"You've got to be able to find a fairway," he said after an 18th hole bogey.
