The 36-year-old Australian has experienced highs and lows over the course of his career and he admitted he’s had to work hard to stay motivated and in pursuit of victory.
He reflected to Golf Monthly magazine: “Obviously winning the US PGA in 2015 was the big one so far.
“I had worked really hard that summer, made a run in the US Open, played very well and nearly won The Open Championship at St Andrews and then got my opportunity at Whistling Straits a month later.
"I felt like it was my chance to win and it felt so good to lift that trophy. I’ll always remember that Sunday in my career – so much to soak in from that experience.
“As far as low points, it a hard game. You have to work hard for everything and when you’re not winning, it can get really tough.
“Mentally, I just had to keep myself motivated and continue searching for the next accomplishment.
“Thankfully, that win in the Byron Nelson in 2023 came when it did. It really validated the hard work I’d put in over the past five years.”
Jason takes the time to analyse his game in order to “get better”.
He said: “Golf is a very difficult game to win percentage-wise. To keep that percentage high, what can I be doing to get better? How do I handle situations differently next time?
“I often sit down and ask myself what I could have done better under those stressful final-round circumstances. Be honest with yourself. That’s important.”
