Dustin Johnson is piling up the crystal hardware at a record pace.
Johnson set a Masters record by carding a third eagle in Friday's second round, tapping in a short putt on 15 after a majestic approach that rolled within inches of the pin.
He also scored eagles on 2 and 8 - each par-5s - and scratched down a birdie on 13. All in all, he needed just 13 strokes to navigate Augusta's four long holes, shaving seven strokes off his total.

He finished 5-under for the round, 7-under for the tournament, and although he may not take home a green jacket, his crystal pieces are in the mail.
