Day changes caddies, irons for Masters

AUGUSTA, Ga. Jason Day is making his eighth start at the Masters this week, but in two respects it all will feel new.Day is returning to caddie Rika Batibasaga this week, despite the fact that his longtime friend is making his first appearance at Augusta National. Batibasaga was on the bag for Days victory at Torrey Pines and then a runner-up at Pebble Beach, but Luke Reardon has been Days caddie for the past two events.Hopefully that will make things a little bit lighter out there for me and a little bit more fun for me, he said. Over the last few years its been a grind trying to get that win, because a lot of people have come up to me and said, This is your year. Youre going to win won one. And that can add a little bit more pressure. Hopefully we can make things a little less stressful and go out there and have fun.

Day split with Colin Swatton last fall after 10 years together, but he retained Swatton as his swing coach. Swatton is here this week, ensuring Days swing is in top shape, and he offered his old yardage books to Batibasaga to use this week. Swapping caddies wasnt Days only change.Hes also putting in a new set of irons, TaylorMades P730, after expressing frustration with his ball-striking the past two events. He finished outside the top 20 in both events and didnt like his trajectory or proximity to the hole.The stats suggest that Days iron play has been his only weakness this season. Hes ranked 106th in greens hit and 183rd in strokes gained: approach the green.Hopefully with this current change that will slowly bring everything in, he said, and give myself a few more opportunities on the greens.

My power converter has an alarm going that I cannot turn off. It has two breakers, a 20 and a 15 amp. The 20 amp I can turn on, which is for the AC. However, when I turn on the 15 amp breaker, it screams at me and wont stop. Its not the propane alarm, I disconnected that when I was working on this and it made no difference.

Or make the ball go shorter? It seems relatively simple from that perspective.'' Ogilvy's comments come as the law-makers, the R and A and the United States Golf Association, ponder changes to the ball and a growing chorus of authority figures from Jack Nicklaus to Gary Player and Tiger Woods call for the ball to be wound back.



Well, the putter his caddie bought. Hatton wanted to shake up his short game, but the equipment trucks had already left and he was too embarrassed to be seen in a golf store shopping for a new putter, even if not many in Paramus, New Jersey, would have recognized him.
