SINGAPORE — Jason Day was just six years old when his father gave him a gift that would change his life forever.
Alvin Day was rummaging through piles of garbage at a rubbish tip in Australia when he spotted an old golf club that someone had thrown away.
A meatworker struggling to make ends meet, Alvin took the club home and gave it to his son as a present.
Blessed with natural talent, Jason swung the club on every chance he had so his dad took him to the local public course to let him play for real.
