Jason Day heads into the final round of the HP Byron Nelson Classic looking for that balance in trying to win the event for a second time in three years and thoughts of changing diapers.

The ultra-talented Aussie lies in a share of second place at eight under par and just a stroke behind newly-married Jason Duffner.

Duffner is making ammends for losing out to Keegan Bradley in last August’s PGA Championship by placing himself in position to win on the PGA Tour for the second time in a month.

Day carded a third round 67 and while he has fond memories of winning in 2010 the Queenslaon nder knows he faces a tough fight to make it two wins in three years.

“I certainly have good memories there of winning here but tomorrow is going to be tough,” said Day.

“There is a lot of extremely outstanding golfers up there on top of the leaderboard.  The weather is going to be very, very tough again, and fr0m what I’ve heard it’s going to blow again.

“I just have to go out there and play my own game and not worry about what my playing partner is doing or what the guy behind me or in front of me is doing.  I just have to stay disciplined within myself and obviously like the old cliche, take it one shot at a time and just be 100% committed on that single shot”

Again supporting from the sidelines will by Day’s pregnant wife and with Bubba Watson having taken last week’s Players Championship to be his new adopted son, the subject again turned to diapers after Day’s third round.

“As you can see my wife is pregnant, eight weeks left, so it’s exciting stuff,” said Day.

“The first one, you know, is always exciting.  I’m a little nervous because I don’t know what to do, but I know as we go along I’ll kinda pick it up.

“We’ve been to classes and, I don’t know, I think I’m going to be more of a kid than that kid in there, so it’s‑‑ I’m really, really excited with how things are going in my life.

“However the thought of changing diapers is kind of grossing me out, but once it’s your own kid, right, that’s what they say, once it’s your own kid, it changes everything.

“But I’ve been trying to find a balance and I feel like I’ve‑‑ it’s starting to finally come around. I would‑‑ if I didn’t play a good round I would take it home, and I would be down on myself and I would take it out on the people closest to me.  That’s not how I want things to go.

“I’m enjoying myself more on the course and whatever happens on the course stays on the course. It’s very hard to separate those things sometimes, but I feel like I’m doing a better job of it now, and I’m just having fun.”
