Jason Day

Quick Quotes

Q. Obviously not the outcome you wanted, but are you aware the importance of that last putt to get you back next year?

JASON DAY: Yeah, I mean, obviously I walked in so I had a look. Obviously it's nice to be able to come back next year but a little disappointing. Actually played okay. Just didn't take advantage of two, three. You get birdies there, that obviously changes the storyline a little bit going -- then obviously had a mistake on seven.

Actually hit 13 greens and played pretty good. Just didn't capitalize on any opportunities. Putted actually quite poorly today. So a little unfortunate, but just how it goes. I mean, pretty positive about my game. Other than just the lack of putting today. But other than that, it was, yeah, okay.

Q. Putting yourself in the mix this year, does that give out belief, it's a course where...

JASON DAY: Yeah, I know I can play well around here. It's just obviously when you get the opportunities just take them. You know, sometimes you have to take them. Sometimes you have to take some unnecessary risk and sometimes you got to take a step back and play the way you need to play.

Unfortunately I just didn't play the way that I needed to. Obviously I was watching Rosey on the front, side and he got off to a dream start. That's kind of the -- in my mind that's kind of where I saw a lot of birdies, minus-5, what he did. But, a lot of the birdies that he made I saw those and just didn't get myself in the position.
