    Louis Oosthuizen made a double-eagle and took the lead at the Masters.A few more hours of good golf and his shot could join Gene Sarazen's as one of the most famous in the sport.Oosthuizen holed out on the par-5 second Sunday to post a double-eagle 2, the rarest shot in golf and the first time it's been done on that hole in the 76-year history of the Masters.In the blink of an eye, the double-eagle moved Oosthuizen, the 2010 British Open champion, from 7 to 10 under and into first place. He gave one of those shots back on No. 4 but still had a one-shot lead over Phil Mickelson as the leaders played the front nine. Third-round leader Peter Hanson was another shot back and Matt Kuchar and Bubba Watson were tied at 6 under.

    he really played well yesterday. i'm a little surprised he choked away that last playoff hole. bubba's shot out of the trees was pretty amazing on that last hole though.
