Both of them have had a fantastic tournament and are currently in T1 and T2, with McIlroy leading (-12) and DeChambeau right behind (-10). They'll play their final round at 2:30 ET, but first, here is a look at some numbers of the two star golfers.

On their official Instagram page, LIV Golf posted a comparison between McIlroy and DeChambeau. They gave the fans a clearer picture of who is ahead at this point. Let's look at LIV's comparison of two below:

LIV Golf's Instagram page also hyped up the face-off between these two great players, with the caption reading:

"Today is the day 🙌It’s the final round of the 89th Masters 🏆#TheMasters @themasters"

Rory McIlroy is carrying a lot of fans' hopes into this year's Masters. This is McIlroy's 17th Masters, and if he wins, he will become the sixth golfer in history to complete the Career Grand Slam. Before him, Gene Sarazen, Ben Hogan, Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods all accomplished this monumental feat in their careers.

Bryson DeChambeau, on the other hand, is playing in his ninth Masters tournament this year. And he, too, had a make-or-break vision of winning the green coat. In a recent podcast called Under the Umbrella, DeChambeau stated that winning the Masters is his number one goal. Last year, he was in the lead for the majority of the tournament but finished T6 in the end.
