Good luck and every success to Jason Day on turning Pro. Only young but this guy has real potential and his amateur record speaks for itself. He is teeing it up at the John Dere this week so good luck Jason.
Yes, Jason had a fine amateur career. But, at 18, he may be a tad young still. This might end up being another Justin Rose thing. I hope not. It's a long way from Australian amateurs to PGA TOUR-quality competition.
I like the draw with Jason playing with 'little knowns' . This will take some pressure off him and I expect him to perform well. Be great if he can make a cheque in his first outing.
Keep your eye on this young Australian. Only eighteen years of age & just turned pro, he has made $99,860 in the four events he has played so far & is currently T5 in the Reno-Tahoe Open.
Another very good tournament for Jason in only his 5th event. A couple of errant shots down the last few holes cost him a top 10 but he will learn his mistakes. Great potential here.
He appears to have the all around game to become a superstar. Good short game, good length, good iron play. Looks like a fairly hard worker. A Great future.
