OAKVILLE, Ontario — Four days after his near-miss at the British Open, Jason Day has exhibited no ill-effects from that Monday finish and his transatlantic flight to Canada.
The Australian world number nine checked in with a sparkling six-under-par 66 for a 10-under total to trail early second-round leader Chad Campbell of the United States by four shots at the RBC Canadian Open on Friday.
Brian Harman was alone at 12 under after firing a 67, finishing the round a stroke in front of fellow American Johnson Wagner (66) and Canadian David Hearn (64).
The 27-year-old Day believes he has plenty of time to rest up and also contend at the Canadian Open, despite all the travel and mental stress that comes after competing at a major championship
"I've got five hours to play and 19 hours to rest," the Australian told reporters.
