Jason Day wins PGA Tour title, first in five years for Australia
Posted : 15 May 2023
Jason Day won the Byron Nelson in Texas to earn his first PGA Tour championship in five years.
Day, 35, shot a nine-under 62 in his final round to finish on 23 under overall, one stroke ahead of Austin Eckroat of America and Kim Si-woo of South Korea.
The Australian had a flawless chip-in for a birdie at the 12th hole during his round without making a bogey.
It is the former world number one's first PGA Tour victory since the 2018 Wells Fargo Championship, while it is his 13th overall.
"It's been a struggling few years, five years since our last win" Day said
"The way I played today was really special. I'm very pleased and happy with how things have progressed over the last couple of years."
"To be on the other side of it, to be healthy, winning again. It's so good to be on the other side."
Day's first PGA Tour victory came in the 2010 Byron Nelson, which was played at a different Dallas golf course at the time.
