Who's Hot: Jim Furyk
Furyk barely made the cut at 4-over-par 148, but he played his way back into contention with the best round of the day among those who finished Saturday.
His 68 included five birdies against one bogey. And, though he is six shots behind overnight leader Chad Campbell, anything is possible today.
After making birdie on the par-3 12th, Furyk's round was interrupted by the weather delay. But after saving par on the par-5 13th, Furyk made birdies on Nos. 16 and 17 to get back to even.

Who's Not: Sergio Garcia
The young Spaniard will leave Augusta National still searching for his first major tournament victory.
After opening with rounds of 72-74, Garcia struggled again Saturday. He posted a 3-over-par 39 on the front nine, then bogeyed the 10th hole and tripled the 11th.
When play was halted by darkness, he was 6 over through 16 holes.

Wild Card: Mark Hensby
After opening with 80, Hensby rallied to make the cut by shooting 67 on Friday.
He continued his solid play Saturday, albeit with a few glitches. Birdies at Nos. 2, 3, 8 and 9 were marred by just one bogey (No. 4). On the back nine, the Australian made bogeys at Nos. 11 and 16 but did get a birdie at the par-5 15th.
Hensby's 70 gave him a 54-hole total of 1 over.
