WATCH: Jason Day holes out on back-to-back holes at the Memorial

Putter was optional for Jason Day early in his third round at the Memorial.

The Muirfield Village member hit his tee shot down the middle of the fairway on the 387-yard par-4 third hole, leaving 142 yards for his second shot, which was no problem for the 2015 PGA Champion.

After celebrating an unlikely eagle, Day stepped to the tee on the difficult par-3 fourth hole and pulled his tee shot left of the green into thick rough.

Could he put a second consecutive “2” on the scorecard without taking the headcover off the putter? Why not?

Day was 4 under for the round and 3 under for the tournament as he made his way through the back nine on moving day.
