Zitat des Tages von Jason Day:
My goal is to be the No. 1 golfer in the world, and I want to chase Tiger.
You've got to come out and fire on all cylinders and get yourself up the leaderboard and show people that you're there and you're ready to win.
There is no real way to prepare yourself for having a child other than just getting thrown in the deep end pretty quick.
I look back on the influence my dad had on my life and career, and I just try to take the best parts of what he had.
When I've been playing my best golf, I feel like everything's so slow.
There's a lot of spotlight that comes along with being the best in the world.
What I'm doing with my body and with my golf game, I'm trying to extend the longevity of my career.
It's okay to dream big.
It's O.K. to fail. Just keep putting yourself there. Once I started saying that and really believing that, over time, it just gradually gave me confidence.
When I get to 40, I'm going to re-evaluate everything and then go from there. Because when I get to 40, I would like to see where I'm at in my career because I might want to go, 'You know what, I'm done. I'm just happy with everything,' and I'm going to go off my merry way, and I'll probably never pick up a golf club ever again.

It's very stressful being the No. 1 player in the world. You're in the limelight a lot. You've got more things to do when you get to tournaments, more things to do off weeks. But I wouldn't change it in any way because this is exactly where I want to be. I want to try and stay here as long as I can while I can because nothing beats this feeling.
I didn't have a dollar to my name in 2006.
I'm trying to adapt - they say you have to adapt to vertigo.
I think if you try a little bit too hard sometimes, you can kind of shoot yourself in the foot.
When you have a lot of confidence and you feel like nobody can beat you, it's game over for everyone else.
I have the opportunity to do that right now, to try to work as hard as I can to really leave my footprint in this game that has given me so much.
I've never been more motivated to be No. 1 in the world. I've never been more motivated to try to extend that lead from one to two. All the hard work that I've put into my game right now has paid off, but I've got to keep working hard to win as much as I can.
Being an Australian that's been No. 1 in the world back home playing in Australia, that's a pretty cool moment to have.
The biggest thing is, if you want it still, you'll do everything you need to do to make sure you extend your career.
Anything can happen, so you have to control your attitude and stay strong.
You get nit-picked in the media. Stats are always up saying he doesn't drive it straight enough or hit enough greens or whatever it is. Then you have to perform, because if you don't perform, then you're off the Tour.
I think I definitely like the solitude of golf.
Family comes first, and golf is second.
It's quite nice to play on a golf course that, even though it is links, that there's not much wind, which is good.
It just flat-out sucks losing. It really - it doesn't feel good.
I've been one of those people that hold on to a little bit more stress than others. People take certain situations a little bit differently.
I'm willing to put my body on the line and stuff like that, just to get a taste of that greatness.
Rest is huge because if you're sleep-deprived, that can definitely run into the mental side of the game and can definitely hurt your game if you're playing tournament golf.
It really is amazing that some days you'll come out and you'll feel like you can beat anyone, and then some days you come out and you've got no confidence in the world, and you can't break an egg with a hammer.
A lot of people underestimate rest, especially sleeping and recovery time.
I don't like to use the word 'legacy' because it sounds a bit like I'm full of myself, but I am trying to see how far I can take myself, how far I can push being the best in the world.
I'm just here for this one purpose, and that's to try and get better each and every day and try and win as much as I can, while I can.
It's very easy to make poor choices and have bad swings every now and then.
It's okay to say what you want to do.
Everyone has an uncomfortable club in their bag.
