Jason Day apparently re-injured his back picking up his daughter [UPDATE]

Jason Day has become a walking injury waiting to happen.

According to Ryan Lavner, Day injured his back prior to beginning his first round at the Masters by, get this, picking up his daughter.

You can’t make this stuff up. The video below is of Day getting stretched out on the SECOND HOLE!

Obviously, Day and his injuries have become a joke at this point. He withdrew from the Arnold Palmer Invitational after six holes and then was spotted walking around at Disney with his family when he claimed the Sunday prior to the tournament he felt he could barely walk.

I’m not a doctor, and I don’t claim to be, however, knowing that you have a disc problem in your back and haven’t gone through the proper procedures to get it fixed or fully healed doesn’t seem smart for someone who puts massive strain on that part of their body.

Just ask Tiger how he feels about it.

UPDATE: Since this post went up, Jason Day’s back has been mentioned more times than I can count.
