He’s still making top tens, earned almost $2MM this year and over $50MM in his career. I think he’s doing just fine despite not being the top player in the world anymore. His career is hardly over.

I saw him as a kid (around 2006) at Keysborough golf club in Melbourne Victoria playing a practice round by himself. I didn't know who he was but the guy I finished a golf round with said "That's Jason day, I'm going to ask for his autograph, cuz, you never know". Sure enough, Jason became number 1 in the world.

Jason is definitely one of my favorite professional golfers. I'm surprised you didn't mention Jason's very very first shot as a pro was a smothered duck hook which hit a lady standing next to the first tee. He got into the tourney via a sponsor from Greg Norman. Anyways, all the best, and your videos are awesome.

got to meet Jason 4 years ago at the last Bridgestone at firestone. you could tell he is a humbled man because of experiences and what hes dealt with/ overcame. overall fantastic human beings then is one of the most genuine pro athletes let alone golfers I have ever been able to meet.

Nicely done on the documentary! Touching

Forgetting his mother battling cancer at the same time and him being across the world from her. She eventually came to Ohio for treatment but that was hugely stressful for Jason. It was the same time he had his second child and was having bad back issues. Everything simply piled up on him physically and mentally. He's too good not to come back to form. His kids will grow up a bit and he'll be back.

I believe Jason Day now has back problems. Most people commenting on youtube in stuff like that have no idea the fine line between even say 20th ranked in the world and 150th. It is extremely difficult to get to the pga tour, and harder to even stay out there.

Pro Golfer’s backs do not hold up once they reach their 40’s or even sooner (Anthony Kim) that have such little hip turn, but a full shoulder turn in their swing, players that turn their hips more in their backswing last longer.

Excellent, well done video report. I feel that Jason will be back, he's only 33, just needs rest and recovery. He has lots of time left in his career. Best of luck to him....

A true Aussie champion, so sad what has happened to him, a really nice bloke. Let’s all hope he gets back to the top where he belongs, on ya mate.

Super nice guy. Swing was very restrictive and violent, bound to get injured. Had a great career, might still stay somewhat competitive but that's about it.

I really like Jason Day and hope he can come back and win some more too. He was so great to watch. At this point, I don't watch the PGA tour but if he starts being near the top again, I'll be switching back on for sure.

Good documentary! Enjoyed it. However you stated that Day finished 2 strokes behind angel Cabrera in the 2013 masters (who is now going to jail for tax evasion, this might be an idea for your next doc?!) he actually finished 2 strokes behind Adam Scott who beat angel in a play off!

It's amazing how far golf has come in the last years. So many young excellent new talents, that a lot of the guys from ten years ago like Kaymer, Stenson, Day, Donald, Keegan Bradley really struggle. Maybe having a career from 21 to 49 on the PGA becomes more and more the exemption, unlike the 80/90s/00s when a core of 150 guys always kept their card.

Hey Mitchell, really enjoy these segments, keep them going. Maybe Jason got busted using Poly Max Extremes?

Love J Day I know he will be back and he will win again, When Jordan Speith struggled for years there was no doubt he would be back, like Jordan J Day is way to talented not to be back in the winner's circle as long as no serious injury.

One of my favorite players to watch because his shot playing and his personality…

Yeah! Very lovely video and I love to see him again up on top … he’s a very inspiring sportsman and person!

Didn't think I could root for someone more. Let's go Jday!

You can do it Jason !!!

What do you mean what happened... seems like a pretty good career to me

“This boys gonna be a champion one day”. Seems like everyone of these videos has one of these quotes from a parent or coach.

Like most golfers they play well week in week out for years then win a major the virtually disappear .

His mum passed away too, this really had a massive impact on him. He has a loving family and golf may just have to become a hobby if his back doesn’t recover.

There's such a thing as working too hard. And that tv reporter is right about short swings / short careers.

Let’s hope so!

What a story, amazing Jason day

Perfect job. Journeyman Golfer.

Ehhh I wouldn't say that entirely. His mother battling cancer wasn't exactly what he wanted to happen. I think that was an enormous part of the story here that somehow wasn't even mentioned. You're definitely correct that his family is hugely important to him, which is why his mother's illness was so devastating. She was in Australia while Jason lived in Ohio. He badly wanted her to come to Ohio for treatment and I believe she eventually did but it was massively difficult and stressful for him.

The problem is there is always new and hungry talent coming through. The game won't stand still waiting for Jason to catch up. And then there is the curse of the 'one-hit-major-winner', a fate that has befallen so many top flight golfers in the last 25 years (check the records). And Jason's results are just so far off the pace, sometimes 15-20 shots behind the winner.

My thoughts were for him, not to pick what is wrong or what is right! Get well soon Jason and get back into the fight, we all wish you well in getting back hitting balls in flight!

Tell a short swing means short career to Jon Rahm.

All golfers have shorter backswings as they age, it is inevitable. Compare the backswings of greats such as Nicklaus or Watson now against when they were in their twenties. It's that, or a wrecked back. On the plus side, the shorter backswing usually results in better accuracy. Doug Sanders had one of the shortest backswings on the PGA tour, he won ten times as many PGA tournaments as Brandel Chamlee. Jason is a great player, I just hope he can overcome his back problems. Best putter from 20 feet I've seen.

I just wonder where he was. Hope he gets back to form.

Keep working hard with balance, and enough sleep and eat healthy. You can be very happy, the competition is much better. I know you will love it. I miss your game and I know many others do as well.

Hey Mitchell! Can you do “what happened to justin rose”

I dont think he'll win another major. But I would've said the same for Garcia, Woods and Mickelson all winning late in their careers, and they proved me wrong. The problem Day had was playing in a very competitive era and if you are compared to Woods, then that his a huge burden to carry. Its not fair to compare because it adds so much unrealistic pressure. Just let players be themselves.

Yeah except Jason is only 33, so his career is still very young. This video completely left out his mother's cancer diagnosis which was a HUGE deal for Jason. She wanted to stay in Australia but Jason wanted her in Ohio with him to go to the Mayo Clinic. It was the same time his back was really struggling the most so it became overwhelming I think. He'll be back. He's too good not to. I think his kids will get a bit older and he will be back in form.

I think he'll be back. Pardon the pun.

I Know backpain also .My career was shaped by lower back problems .I love all sports including golf and was quite good at it ,getting to a four handicap .Surgeries help initially but you lose suppleness also as you age .Cycling saved me from going mad without exercise and i gave up golf .Call it a DAY Jason! Find other things or start a different career .You will always be a great champion

Day's peak was in that few years in the mid-2010s when Tiger either wasn't playing due to injuries or wasn't competitive, like at the 2015 US Open. That was that weird time in Golf when names like Spieth, Day, Kaymer, Stenson, Scott, Watson, and McIlory were the dominant players. Of those players, really none have had any longevity. Spieth has certainly made big strides this year and McIlory is consistent but neither has lived up to the hype.
