SPRINGFIELD, New Jersey (Reuters) - Jason Day's lead-up to his PGA Championship title defence has been far from ideal as a mix of untimely circumstances, including a late-night hospital visit with his wife, kept him from seeing the course until the eve of the year's final major.

Day, already fatigued after going right from the British Open into his title defence at last week's Canadian Open, has since caught a bug from his children and was up late on Tuesday in a hospital after his wife had an allergic reaction.
