Conditions on Saturday at the 2016 Masters have not been conducive to low scores as winds have been blowing consistently at 20 mph, with gusts above 30. Par feels like birdie on most holes as players try to hold on to their position going into Sunday.
The par-5 13th offers one of the few true birdie opportunities on Saturday, and Bill Haas was able to do one better with an 89-yard hole out for eagle on the 13th.

Haas wasn't the only one on Saturday afternoon to find an eagle from the fairway on a par 5. Kevin Streelman got his round off on the right foot with a hole out from 61 yards away for eagle on the par-5 second hole.

On a day where most of the field is backing up, picking up two strokes to par on one hole can mean a big jump up the leaderboard.
