Twenty years after his win at Augusta, Fred Couples surges into tie for lead

AUGUSTA, Ga.  –  The halfway leader of the 76th Masters takes pain medication for his back and is eligible for AARP.
 
Last week in Houston, he all but pronounced his golf game an ancient relic.
 
Then Fred Couples, age 52, arrived at the humps and hollows of Augusta National Golf Club and started carving drives and pouring in putts. Fred Couples: 1992 Masters champion and resident sandbagger.
 
Through 36 holes of a wild Masters, Couples shares the lead at five-under-par 139 after a second-round 67 that featured seven birdies and just two bogeys. Tied with Couples is another laid-back soul, Jason Dufner, last year’s runner up at the PGA Championship.
