But the 33-year-old would string together three consecutive birdies on the next three holes to get down to 8-under after the tenth hole.

He is just two shots back of leader and playing partner Rory McIlroy. 

Nick Taylor was the only other Canadian to make the cut after the second round, and carded 14 consecutive pars before back-to-back bogeys on 15 and 16 for a 2-over 74.

Taylor, a Winnipeg native, now heads into Sunday's round in a tie for 37th.

Fellow Canadians Mike Weir and Taylor Pendrith were unable to rebound after slow starts to the tournament, missing the cut by multiple strokes to miss out on the weekend.

Weir, the 2003 Masters champion, has now missed out on the weekend at Augusta for the fifth consecutive year at 4-over, while Pendrith had his first career start at the Masters end early at 8-over through 36 holes.
