Despite stiff back and allergies, Jason Day only one back at Travelers Championship

CROMWELL, Conn. – Despite allergies and a bad back, Jason Day could still earn his first PGA Tour win since 2018 at the Travelers Championship.

After Day took the 36-hole lead at TPC River Highlands, he shot a 70 on Saturday, but remains one shot back of the lead at 9 under.

One of the reasons Day still has a shot to win this tournament? Eye drops provided by his main competitor in Round 3.

"I'm just stiff," Day first said of his back. "I had allergies out there, too, so that wasn't good. I was on 14 and I needed some eye drops and Bubba [Watson] pulled them out of his pocket, so that was nice.
