63-year-old Langer to become oldest player ever to make Masters cut

It's not official yet, but by the time the second round finishes early Saturday morning, 63-year-old Bernhard Langer will become the oldest player ever to make the cut at the Masters.

The two-time Masters champion recorded a brilliant opening-round 68 before holding on with a 1-over in Round 2 to sit tied for 27th at 3-under for the tournament.

With the cutline expected to be at 1-under by the time the first two rounds are completed, Langer will top Tommy Aaron's record by 33 days.

Langer has been dominant on the 50-and-over PGA Tour Champions with 41 wins on the circuit, including one this season. However, those expecting his annual trip to Augusta to serve as a drink from the fountain of youth are sadly mistaken.

"It actually makes me feel older when I play when these young guys and I see how far they hit it and how short I hit it," Langer told Doug Ferguson of The Associated Press.

Perhaps the best example of this came on the 575-yard par-5 No. 2. The 1985 and 1993 champion bested his average length off the tee with a 295-yard shot. Bryson DeChambeau then hammered his drive 380 yards shortly afterward.

However, both players walked away with a birdie. Additionally, Langer currently sits four shots ahead of the U.S. Open champion.

Langer's feat is even more impressive considering who he's played against during his career.

Langer now waits for the completion of Round 2 to see when he'll go back out on the course for weekend action at the Masters.
