   I do believe Day has back issues. I think he may play a lot of times when he shouldn’t, just to give it a shot, then drops out when he’s tired and out of the running. I’ve dealt with back issues for a very long time, and they really, really suck. That being said, Day is still young, and would be wise to get things figured out before it’s a real detriment to his career.

   Also, I sort of doubt that anyone out there feel’s 100%. Ror’s mentioned once, one single time, that he has a couple vertebrate that are messed up, but he never uses it as an excuse. IMO, if Day’s back is bad enough to withdraw from misc tournaments, it’s probably bad enough on a regular basis that he needs to get some medical attention for the longevity of his career. That is all with respect to giving him the benefit of the doubt in this situation, because I feel for him.

   However, when he’s not winning, and sometimes, even when he is, he always has issues. “Tired”, “bit of a cold”, “stomach bug”, etc.. In relation to Day, it’s getting pretty consistent. He’s overcome adversity in his life, and good on him for doing so. I mean it. But playing golf through a cold is not that, and it’s time to keep the small, nagging things on the down low. If I hear an golf commentator remark at the spectacle of one’s performance while battling through the sniffles, I just may throw my TV.

   I think people will start to wonder if Day is faking and over-dramatizing if he keeps only getting injured or shocking distractions when he isn’t dominating the field. Everyone has known someone like that growing up, just it’s a little weird seeing at this level. It’s similar to how most professional fighters reveal an injury they had leading into the fight they just lost. Or that person who is always sick and missing work. Same unwillingness to just fight through the lesser amazijg times.

   Too bad to hear he’s hurt yet again. He’s great to watch and seems very likeable on tour. But I can’t remember anyone getting hurt as much as he does. Maybe it’s the violent speed that he hits the ball on most swings that contributes to his injury prone career so far? For someone that’s really in shape he is hurt way too much. Hopefully he can be ready for Atlanta.

       No, he’s just speaking from his daily routine experience

         Your comment was not neutral. It can only come from experience in knowing how to do those behaviors with pre-planned thought processes.
         I wouldn’t know, I’ve never thought about those things in those terms
