Jason Day says he ‘never really cared’ about Presidents Cup before major U-turn

Jason Day has recently shared his candid thoughts on the Presidents Cup, revealing that earlier in his career, he didn’t place much importance on the event. Day, a seasoned PGA Tour professional, admitted that golf’s individual nature initially led him to overlook the value of the team competition.

However, as his career has progressed, his perspective has shifted, and he now approaches the Presidents Cup with a renewed sense of purpose. Reflecting on this change, Day acknowledged the impact that events like the Olympics have had on his understanding of playing for more than just personal achievement.

Now representing the International Team at the Royal Montreal Golf Club, Day has become a key figure for his squad as they prepare to face off against Team USA. The Australian golfer expressed his commitment to his team, noting that regardless of how many matches he plays, he’s determined to give his best.

“I’m just here for the team to try and support them the best I can,” Day remarked, highlighting his transformation from a player focused on individual success to one fully invested in the collective effort of the Presidents Cup.
