Jason Day continued his dominance of the PGA Tour, opening the first round of the BMW Championship with a 10-under 57. Inclement weather interfered -- approaching storms -- forcing the 27-year-old to hold serve after 17 holes.
His play will resume at 8:30 a.m. CT on Friday.
Jason Day: "I'm walking through the locker room now and guys are asking me if I'm playing the ladies' tees."

Not to be outdone -- though the leaderboard says otherwise -- Spieth managed a hole in one on the second tee. A 7-iron shot landed just off the edge of the par-3 green, kicked right and rolled directly toward the pin.
Jordan Spieth told Jason Day he's going to hole that shot for 59 tomorrow. Day replied, "Now I'm not going to, just because you said that."

Like Day, Spieth’s round too ended after 17 holes. The two-time major champion is five strokes off the pace and tied for third.
Daniel Berger ended his round with sole possession of second, shooting a 6-under 65.
