In a 3-tournament stretch in the middle of last season, Day finished 52nd and missed the cut twice, including The Players. However, Day rebounded with ninth-place finish the U.S. Open and a fourth-place finish at the Open Championship. Since then, Day has played in 17 tournaments, winning seven. And out of his last 19 tournaments, he has finished outside the top 12 just three times.
