Why Day is playing with ‘a lot more gratitude’ at Pebble Beach

PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. – Jason Day has done everything but win the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, and Sunday he’ll be looking to remedy that.

Still, even if he doesn’t, he’s grateful for yet another chance as he continues to recover from the nagging back pain that dogged him most of last year.

“I've got a lot more gratitude being here, especially with the injuries and all that stuff, being able to come and play and kind of perform the way that I've wanted to,” Day said. “I'm a lot more thankful to obviously be here. So, in that respect, I think I'm a lot happier, and that hopefully yields better play tomorrow.
