Golf: Match Play-Day wins despite back woes

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) – Jason Day overcame an early deficit to win his opening match in the Dell Match Play. Now he has to overcome a bad back. Day dropped to his knee after his a tee shot on the 16th hole as he closed out Graeme McDowell, 3-and-2. Day headed straight for the trailer to get it worked on. Rickie Fowler rallied from 3 down on the back nine to square his match, only for Jason Dufner to pull out a 2-and-1 victory. The round-robin format means Fowler can still win his group, though he will need help. And world No. 1 Jordan Spieth (SPEETH) posted a 3-and-2 victory over Jamie Donaldson in their round-robin opener.
