Masters: Day two in numbers

Day two at Augusta turned into the Jordan Spieth Show. We've consulted the record books to bring you the best numbers from the second day of the 2015 Masters.

Dustin Johnson On 18

130- Spieth's total through 36 holes. Tying the lowest 36-hole score in 156 years of Major championship golf (Faldo - 1992 Open Championship, Brandt Snedeker - 2012 Open Championship, Martin Kaymer - 2014 US Open). Spieth is the first player to do so on a par 72 course.

14- Under par, sets a new Masters 36-hole low score, beating Raymond Floyd's record set en route to victory in 1976.

19- The number of shots under par for Spieth over his first six rounds at Augusta, tying the record set by Tiger Woods back in 1998.

- Dropped shots in Spieth's last 116 holes this season. The 21 one year has only made one bogey so far this week.

13- Shots needed for Dustin Johnson to play the par fives today. The American made an eagle three on the second, eighth and 15th holes to play the par fives in seven under for the day. He is the first player to ever make three eagles in a round at the Masters.

321- The length of Dustin Johnson's average drive today. That's 19 yards further than anyone else in the field!

17- Total eagles made today, tied the Masters record on one day. Which means a lot of shipping costs for Augusta National GC. For each eagle made, the club sends out two engraved crystal goblets. Since 2009, Dustin Johnson's has enough Augusta goblets to host a drinks party for 28 people.

30 - Greens in Regulation for Kevin Stadler so far this week, two more than Jordan Spieth. However, Stadler needed 21 more putts than our 36-hole leader and will head home after missing the cut by five strokes.

7- Par four birdies for Sergio Garcia through 36 holes, more than anyone else.

69 - Impressive score for the Canadian amateur Corey Conners today. He'll leave Augusta having not shot a round in the 70s following an opening round 80. The last amateur to break 70 at Augusta? Hideki Matsuyama, shot 68 in the third round in 2011.

1,461- Days since Tiger Woods last shot a round in the 60s at Augusta, dating back the final round in 2011. The four-time Masters champion shot 69 today to sit at three under par.

5,115- Days since Mark O’Meara last broke 70 at the Masters. The 1998 Champion shot a four under par 68 to move into the top 15.

138

  • Rounds for Ben Crenshaw at the Masters. Today was his last. The Texan has 11 top tens at Augusta and two Green Jackets in his wardrobe.

1 -Birdie all day at the 240-yard fourth hole. America's Ben Martin made the only two at the par three named 'Flowering Crab Apple'

11- The first hole on Amen Corner is playing as the hardest hole so far this week, yielding just eight birdies compared to 79 bogeys or worse.

73.1- The average scoring on day two. 0.3 shots lower than day one. 31 players broke par. 12 broke 70.
