Sensational Spieth. 

Jordan Spieth, 21, tapped in a par putt on 18 to clinch the lowest 36-hole score in the Masters' 79-year history with a near-flawless two-round total of 130.

The 130 also ties the major championship 36-hole record.

More importantly, however, he's constructed a four-shot victory over the field at 14-under, and has only one direction to head come moving day.

Spieth added another six birdies, falling short of the nine he scratched onto his Thursday card, but navigated the course with bogey for the first time in his (young) Masters career.

He was one of the first golfers on course, so the lead figures to fluctuate, but he will also threaten for the largest 36-hole lead in tournament history, which stands at five.
