Player notes

Here are some of the players you'll see on CBS' coverage of Sunday's fourth round:

RORY MCILROY Rory McIlroy has held at least a share of the lead all three rounds this week at the Masters Tournament, posting a third-round 2-under 70 to move to 12-under 204. By comparison, the low 54-hole score at the Masters is 15-under 201, set by Raymond Floyd in 1976 and Tiger Woods in 1997. McIlroy's four-stroke lead is the largest at the Masters since Tiger Woods held a nine-stroke lead in 1997. It is just one shot of the largest this season on TOUR, held by Rory Sabbatini at the Honda Classic. ANGEL CABRERA Cabrera moved to T2 with a third-round 5-under 67, just one shy of his best round at Augusta National - a first-round 6-under 66 in 2001 en route to the first of four top-10 finishes at the Masters (T10-2001, T9-2002, T8-2006, 1-2009). Cabrera's victory at the 2009 Masters is one of seven top-25 finishes in 11 previous starts at Augusta National. JASON DAY One day after equaling the lowest score (64) in any round by a first-year participant (Lloyd Mangrum/R1/1940, Mike Donald/R1/1990, David Toms/R4/1998), Day followed up with an even-par 72 to stand T2 and four behind McIlroy. Now 23, Day is the youngest player to win a Nationwide Tour event, winning the 2007 Legend Financial Group Classic at the age of 19 years, 7 months and 26 days. A victory on Sunday would be the second for Day on the PGA TOUR (2010 HP Byron Nelson Championship).
