well played Day, I think you are harsh on him, callit.

If Day was a mediocre player who finishd 25th each week, no one would label him a choker. Because he has the talent to regularly contend, his failure to win is seen as choking.  Still very young, he has accrued huge experiece by contending so often. If he does start to convert more, you could be looking a a multiple Major winner very very soon.

I know what you're saying Oz. I just said something similar to someone, in summing him up. I don't like losers, in fact I hate them! Jason Day has huge talent, and a talent that should have seen him win a lot more. A bad player in any sport, can fluke a big win. They have less pressure on them, aren't expected to hole the winning putt/pot/goal etc. Joe Johnson, Dennis Taylor, Michael Campbell, Greece etc.

But when you are blessed with a rare talent, you shouldn't be wasting it. Its why I love Tiger so much. He was the epitomy of 'winner' for so long. In my mind, he still is.

Federer, Nadal, Schumacher, Tiger, Kilkenny hurling team, Kerry teams, the current Spanish squad. Born winners, Huge talent, but balls to match, they made it count.

Contrast that with Lee Westwood, Sergio, Jimmy White, every English football team of the last 40 years,,,,,,,I put Jason Day in with them. Wasted talent.

I stand to win quite a sum on Day. I am nearly rooting for the Frenchman at the moment!!

I will put him there til he proves otherwise Oz. I have a funny feeling he wont. Fair enough, Victor is having some luck to keep this going, but Day should have it well killed off. Like a lot of tournaments he has finished second or third in.

I should have said 'at the moment',.......before Wasted talent. Agree it seems premature to write off his career, but I have a feeling he will prove me right, and never win a major.

Dubuisson showing could match play sense by making him hole out,he obviously senses the nerves in Jason Day.
By:

When: 24 Feb 14 00:15
Ya be agreeing with me soon Oz!! I haven't laid off in over a year, but took my stake out Day there, as I am really starting to want him to lose!!
By:

That should be good rather than could.
By:

When: 24 Feb 14 00:18
Fu**in right he made him hole out. I cant stand that 'its good' sh*te. If Sergio wants to be a gentleman, he can hold the door open for Tigers missus when she is going in to see his new Green Jacket!! Leave the sport to the winners.

He is skirting bunkers off his drives, playing miracle shots out of the desert is certainly one the luckiest players I have seen.

Some similarities with this and Lee Trevino and Tony Jacklin in the 1972 Open in Muirfield.

You think If Day can get up and down he might have it,
By:

When: 24 Feb 14 00:35
Well, he should certainly get up and down. Its whether Dub can. V tricky shot, very little green..

In fairness to Day he comported himself well in the face of adversity,all the luck was going his opponents way but he never let it get him down.

Well done again Huddys and the others who tipped him.
The Golfers of the forum keep nailing the winners.

Some of the best viewing we have had for a while , not just the final , lots of other good matches this week .
By:

When: 24 Feb 14 00:48
WD Huddys & NA. Outright was disappointing for myself this week, but matches were profitable, and Day got me a few diluted quid there, so not bad week overall. It was certainly a more entertaining matchplay Sunday than normal.

Huddys, I will lay you 13-2 on Tiger and Huddys! Quality line up, serious strength in depth. Say Tiger 8s, Rory 11s. Maybe more on a first show. Hopefully they quicker than normal to price it up tomorrow. PGA markets been very slow lately.

Sorry Huddys,... Tiger and Rory!! I say you would love to be a 13-2 next week!!

I agree with callit that Day should prob win more often, but to be fair, there aren't very many of the top echelon who I trust in the mix.... especially the younger breed. Fair enough the likes of DJ/Simpson/Watney/Haas/Kuch/Watson have won a few more times than Day, but I still wouldn't be massively confident on any of them in contention. Truth is, it's bloody hard to win and apart from Tiger and maybe Mickelson (in latter years) and Zach, not many of the top players find it easy. Because Day is so consistent, it's highlighted more how hard he finds it.

It always feels better getting paid by the bookies Call,you might not agree with this but I think that win for Day could be the making of him,well done newapproach aswell,
