Jason Day got off to a promising start Friday at the Mayakoba Golf Classic, only to stumble late and end the day eight shots off the lead.

Day was bogey-free and 4 under through 15 holes when he tugged his tee shot at El Camaleon Golf Club's par-4 16th hole. Trying to avoid the water left, Day tried to cut a drive into the narrow fairway, but his tee ball started left and stayed there, ending up in the mangroves.
