Day Not Ready to Panic, Opens With 66 at Bay Hill

ORLANDO, Fla. — Jason Day hasn't played enough tournaments this year for anyone to worry about him.

Even so, his golf hasn't been very inspiring.

After a three-month break at the end of last year, in which his only drama was when wife Ellie was plowed over LeBron James going after a loose ball at a Cleveland Cavaliers game, Day finished 15 shots behind Jordan Spieth at Kapalua, then took two weeks off and missed the cut at Torrey Pines while battling the flu. Two weeks later, finished eight shots back at Pebble Beach, took another two-week break, and was seven back at Doral.
