BMW Championship: Jason Day extends lead in Chicago

His first win of the season came at the Players Championship, where he sunk a birdie on the first extra hole, after a three-hole playoff, to win.

“I still think it’s him”, said Day, who has won four of his last six starts, of Spieth.

In 2010 he began making major strides by becoming the youngest Australian to win a PGA Tour event at the HP Byron Nelson Championship.

“The mentality swung at The Open Championship”.

Anyone expecting a red numbers blitz as (officially) the Tour’s 30 best players fight it out may be disappointed: East Lake’s par-70 layout doesn’t offer an easy ride. The victor is announced the following day. He missed the British Open playoff by one shot and played in the final group at Whistling Straits, where he was unable to make up a two-shot deficit against Day at the PGA Championship. Day has one more PGA Tour victory but one less major.

Marge says that even at that early age you could see the potential and desire to get out on the course.

“Someone with the first letter of “J” will win it”, he said.

Kisner did very little wrong on each occasion to my eye and has emerged as a player with a tremendous temperament under the intense pressure of a Sunday afternoon.

The TOUR Championship is here and I’ve got you covered with some of my top picks for DraftKings (you can also use these picks if you’re betting too).

“I have him to thank a lot of this to”.

All FedEx Cup points have been reset after the BMW Championship.

Harris English had found plenty of ways to derail his East Lake aspirations.

The demanding Scarlet layout, an original Alister McKenzie design remodelled by local hero Jack Nicklaus, is one of the more demanding on the Web.Com Tour. With Furyk out, they’ll play with a 29-man field this week, for the second consecutive year.

Further, while Day surely wants to win the tournament, it’s not mandatory to capture the FedExCup and the accompanying $10 million bonus.

In 2013, he played his last three rounds of the season at the BMW Championship in 4 over par to finish 31 on the FedEx Cup list, just 26 points outside the top 30 and his first trip to the Tour Championship. And for the sixth time, he’s iffy about doing anything here.

Charlie Rymer, Georgia Tech All-American in the late 1980s and now a co-host of the Morning Drive program on Golf Channel, will be on the Tech campus taping segments for his program that will air on Morning Drive throughout the weekend while the Tour Championship is being contested at East Lake.

From his days as an amateur in Australia and then later in the United States to turning professional in 2006, it was all about constantly improving his game and having that go-getting mind-set. A change in strategy is in order. Bubba has been one of the better players on tour this year and ranks well in some the main stats I looked at for the week.

That sounds all well and good, but can he really do it?

The Tour Championship presented by Coca-Cola starts Thursday on Golf Channel at 1 pm ET.

Aussie golfer Jason Day has climbed atop the world golf rankings leaderboard, and is now poised to become one of the greatest golfer in his era, claiming, as good as he is right now, that no other person on earth could beat him in golf.
