  • SuggestedLeadIn: Reaction from Jason Day after he won the 97th PGA Championship on Sunday (16 August).

    Script: SOUNDBITE (English): Jason Day, shot a five-under-par 67 (-20 Overall):

    "It was probably the hardest round of golf that I've ever had to play. Just thinking about it, knowing that I was very confident going into the round, feeling good about myself and feeling good about how I was driving the ball, how I was hitting the shots into the greens, and especially with how I was putting. I knew today was going to be tough, but I didn't realise how tough it was going to be."

    "To be able it walk up the 18th hole and finish the way I did, it was just a lot of emotion that came out of me. I haven't had really much time to think about what I just accomplished and I guess you can take me off the best players without a Major now. So, I mean it's good to be a Major champion."

    "To be honest, the kid (Jordan Spieth) just doesn't go away. I'm thinking that I'll get this birdie, I'll stretch my lead, and he has no stance over in the bunker and hits a shot to a foot. It's just, it baffles me the stuff that he can prove out there. Obviously, with the level of play that he's been playing this year, it's no wonder he's number one in the world right now. He's going to be around in competition-wise in Major Championships for a long, long time and he's going to be the heavy favorite going forward. But to be able to hold him off, knowing that he's going to be the best player in the world now, the way I played, it felt great."

    "The biggest thing that prepares you for something like this is just the shear experience of failure, looking at failure not as a negative but as a positive. Knowing that you can learn from anything."
