Jimmy Demaret, the 1940 champion, was the co-leader after both the first and second rounds, and had a three-shot lead after 54 holes.[3][4] He carded a 71 on Sunday and won by two strokes over Byron Nelson and amateur Frank Stranahan.[2] Demaret joined Horton Smith and Nelson as two-time winners of the Masters.[1] He was the first to score four sub-par rounds in the same Masters and later became the first three-time winner in 1950.
