Jason Day

I wonder if he thinks he can still "take down tiger". He's +5 thru 12 holes... at one of the easier tournaments on tour

Re: Jason Day

Maybe he equated Playstation 3 Tiger Woods with the real deal?

He shot a 73 and 70.

Back to drawing board....

Re: Jason Day

Was Jason quoted saying that?

If the opportunity presented itself and I was on Tour, I wouldn't say squat about my intensions. Just quietly pick apart the field and see how good my game could get. Because the first minute you say something; you curse yourself. Never fails.

I don't believe he said it to be arrogant. I think if this was a TV interview instead of a newspaper interview people wouldn't think what they think about the statements. I think that is true for a lot of articles though.

Re: Jason Day

At least he had the guts to say what he did,makes a change from the usual soundbites we get from pros.

Re: Jason Day

Again....Why announce these things? Why not just do it? He's a rookie and he says "I'm going to be no. 1".

Let your clubs do the talking!

Re: Jason Day

It's not like he called a press conference and announced he was going to take down tiger. It was an interview with a writer.

I believe it was a similar situation to this:

ESPN - Poulter says he was misquoted by magazine regarding Tiger - Golf

That doesn't really matter, of course they both knew that this would go out to all of the golfing world, correct? It's not like they were both best friends and were playing a round of golf and he said he was going to take down Tiger or something like that...he came out and said it to the general public. If he didn't know the public would hear about it maybe he should consider going back to school, learn a thing or two about common sense.

Re: Jason Day

Since when do they teach common sense in school? I guess the option when giving interviews should be assume you will be misquoted or don't give them.
