Arrival of Jason Day: Aussie Fulfills Potential With a Major

SHEBOYGAN, Wis. — In his eighth year on the PGA Tour, Jason Day reached a major pinnacle of his career by winning the PGA Championship.

And he could be sure that Tiger Woods was watching.

"Game over, very happy for Jason. Great dude and well deserved. Hats off to Jordan, incredible season. Calling it early," Woods tweeted, adding in another tweet that he was watching from his new restaurant in South Florida. Always a commercial plug.

Day and Woods have become good friends on the golf course, but the fact Woods tuned in to the final round at Whistling Straits brought to mind Day's rookie season when he was filled with big talent, big goals and some big talk.
