LAKE FOREST, Ill. (AP) -- Jason Day's easy win Sunday at the BMW Championship confirmed what his rivals have known for several weeks now: The Aussie is the best golfer on the planet.
Day's mostly stress-free final round of 2-under 69 at Conway Farms gave him his fifth win on tour this season, his second in the FedEx Cup playoffs and vaulted him past Jordan Spieth and Rory McIlroy into the No. 1 spot in the world ranking.
The Australian zoomed out to a big lead by shooting 61 and 63 in the first two rounds and was never seriously challenged after that.
