Jason Day calls on an old friend to get putting back on track



Day returned to Spider Itsy Bitsy during the CJ Cup after finishing 30th on Tour last season in Strokes Gained: Putting. From 2015-18, Day ranked first, second and sixth in the statistical category during the four-year stretch.

While the PGA Tour doesn’t record Strokes Gained: Putting statistics during the Asia Swing, Day finished the tournament ranked 11th in putts per green in regulation — a promising start for someone who hasn’t visited the winner’s circle since the 2018 Wells Fargo Championship.

“I think overall, I had the driver, the irons and the putter working, which was nice,” Day said.

In the last few years, Day has used different variations of TaylorMade’s Spider putter, including a red version that played a role in his 2016 Players Championship victory. Day most recently tried a Spider X “Chalk” that lasted four starts.
