Masters fails: Five shockers from the second round at Augusta

From duffed chips to balls in the water, we look at five of the biggest golfing fails from the second round of the Masters.

Rickie Fowler fired a round-of-the-day 67 to join a four-way tie for the lead at Augusta, despite finding the water hazard with an unlucky bounce at the par-five 15th.

Matt Fitzpatrick's hopes faded around the turn, with the young Englishman getting a huge slice of misfortune with his downhill putt at the ninth.

His compatriot Tyrrell Hatton made an early exit and lost his cool after racking up a double-bogey at the 11th, throwing his ball in to the hazard as he walked off the green.

The biggest clanger came from defending champion Danny Willett, who hacked from trees and duffed a chip on his way to a quadruple-bogey eight at the opening hole.
