The “Living Golf” teams on CNN International traveled to Columbus, Ohio to meet the world's number one golf player: Jason Day. At the best of his game, he recently announced that he had signed a contract estimated at over $ 100 million with Nike.

How does he see himself in 2017?

“The most important thing for me is to always strive to improve. Golf has its ups and downs. Your career can be upset. Priorities change over the years, I have two children now. Rory, Jordan, Ricky and all these other players should want to start a family. For my part, I can really enjoy it now. "

His duel with Jordan Spieth at the PGA Championship 2015

“I was overwhelmed by my emotions. All my memories surfaced: I thought of my mother, my sisters, the fact that we were poor. Playing in front of so many people and winning a major golf tournament is just great. "

His relationships with other golfers

“We are friends up to a point. We all want to win, so on the field we don't send flowers. It is not a matter of jealousy. It is a state of mind, the competitive spirit of golf. "

To be number one worldwide

“Being number one in the world has always been my dream since I was 13 years old. I thought that stress, anxiety and nerves would go away after reaching this goal, but no. All of this accumulated in me because of my perfectionism. I tell myself that if I really want to, no one in the world can beat me. "
