Look at his finishes in 2011: T9 at the World Golf Championship Accenture Match Play event, T2 at The Masters, T6 at The Players Championship, 5<sup>th<\/sup> Place at the HP Byron Nelson Championship, 2<sup>nd<\/sup> at the U.S. Open, T4 at the World Golf Championship Bridgestone. In a year when anyone can win just about any week, Day has been a consistent threat atop leader boards. He\u2019s made it clear that when the best players congregate, he\u2019ll be there with his A game.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Day carries major game and the swagger of a guy who\u2019s ready to win majors. It\u2019s not a mistake he\u2019s always in the mix at the big ones \u2013 it\u2019s the sign of a winner in the making. For my money, this is the week he proves he\u2019s ready to take the next step.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Even with his strong play this season, Day enters this week\u2019s championship outside the spotlight. The return of Tiger Woods, Adam Scott\u2019s big win last week and a chatty caddie dominate pre-tournament headlines. Others can\u2019t get over the sheer length and grit of the 7,647, Par 70 Highlands Course at the Atlanta Athletic Club. Even others think this is the week Steve Stricker or Luke Donald is set to bust through.<\/p>\n<p>Who knows how any of those storylines will play out, but I\u2019ll be shocked if Day isn\u2019t part of the picture come Sunday afternoon. For him, it will come down if he can make one or two more birdies than he has in the past; If he can keep his powerful, graceful swing near perfection on the closing holes.<\/p>\n<p>There are tons of players who have come close to winning majors but never cashed in. Day isn\u2019t destined to be one of them. At age 25, Day is a star in the making; A multiple-major winner in the shadows. There\u2019s no reason this can\u2019t be the week.<\/p>\n<p>Come nightfall Sunday, someone will have wrapped up the Wanamaker Trophy and ceased glory\u2019s last shot. It shouldn\u2019t surprise anyone if this year\u2019s 2011 major season is put to bed by a bright, shining Day.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<span class=\"et_bloom_bottom_trigger\"><\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Don\u2019t be surprised if glory\u2019s last shot ends with the breakthrough of a major young talent.
