However, on Friday he demonstrated notable improvement by tallying one of the few error-free rounds in the event thus far with three birdies (3 under par).
Day began the purported “moving day” at 1 under and holding a tie for seventh place. Nonetheless, he rapidly fell behind with successive bogeys on holes one and two.
After making a comeback, the Australian golfer completed the first nine holes without any bogeys and managed to score two birdies, eventually reaching even par at the start of back nine.

In addition, Day has achieved five second-place finishes in major championships which include the 2011 Masters, 2011 US Open, 2013 US Open, 2016 PGA Championship and future event of the2023 Open Championship.
