China's Li flushes toilet trouble at Masters
Haotong Li fired a five-under 67 and moved into contention after saying he spent Thursday night in the restroom.
- Chinese golfer Haotong is contending at the Masters Tournament at Augusta National Golf Club, reaching six-under par during the third round on Saturday to pressure leader Rory McIlroy.
- After a rough Thursday night, Haotong endured a debilitating stomach illness that nearly forced him to withdraw Friday morning; he described feeling "fuzzy" and "living in the toilet" before rebounding.
- Firing a five-under 67 on Friday, Haotong rebounded dramatically with two early birdies at the second and third holes on Saturday to reach six-under par and mount pressure on McIlroy.
- Positioned to surpass his best finish at the Masters, Haotong will play alongside world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler during Sunday's final round at Augusta National.
- A strong finish would mark Haotong's best major performance, potentially eclipsing his fourth-place result at the Open Championship at Royal Portrush last year.
